Ganesh Himal Trek

Once you reach Tribhuvan International Airport (TIA), the Himalayan Marvel Adventure delegate will receive you from there then check-in in the hotel. In the evening meet your guide and other members and then a short brief of the trip.

We’ll leave Kathmandu after breakfast and begin our journey. The 6-hour drive in a jeep/bus to Syabrubesi is full of beautiful scenery and adventure. You will spend the evening exploring the area around the hotel.

Trek uphill after breakfast to Chawatar, where the jeep will be waiting for us. Then travel a few hours to Gatlang, a Tamang village known for its one-of-a-kind customs and craftsmanship in a stunning environment.

We hike to Parvati Kunda, a natural alps freshwater lake, after breakfast. Then we’ll take the trail to Yuri Kharka, where we’ll have lunch, passing through pine and rhododendron forests. The trail then descends to the Somdang River through Khurphu Bhanjyang, followed by a short walk to Somdang village.

After breakfast, we head to Pangsang Pass, a viewpoint in Somdang village that offers a panoramic view of the surrounding landscape. The vast meadow, which has a huge entry gateway, is a great place for camping and beautiful scenery with abundant herbal plants. Since there are no simple lodges or accommodations available, trekkers are advised to bring their tents for the night camp and bring dry fruits or food for dinner.

After breakfast, the trail passes through thick rhododendron forests on our way to Laptung village. Then we stop for lunch in Tipling before continuing our journey to Shertung and Chalish. The only two settlements in this area that have not yet been built are these two. Locals and the tourism committee of the region, on the other hand, guarantee that visitors are provided with a simple meal and a place to rest.

After breakfast at Chalish, we trek towards Hindung, a Tamang village of around 550 people, renowned for Crystals and rubies. If we visit at the correct time then we can spot Yarsagumba.  

To get to Thulo Dhunga, we’ll have to ascend to a higher elevation today. The route passes through a variety of wild flora and fauna, as well as several hidden gems. Exotic animals such as wild musk deer, wild boars, jharal, langur, and leopard may be seen as we walk along the road. On the way to Thulo Dunga, you’ll also see some spectacular waterfalls.

The path goes up and up slowly, with periodic views of the snow-capped peaks. Continue across seasonal pasture areas until we reach Nojet Kharka, a vast green prairie with a beautiful campsite.

Climbing to Dobra Danda, a hill to the northeast rewards with an unforgettable view of Ganesh Himal. At the foot of the Himalayas, there are two tiny lakes Kalo Kunda and Seto Kunda, each with its symbolic meaning. The waters of Kalo Kunda represent the awe-inspiring surroundings, and Seto Kunda has a seasonal pasture nearby.

Today we retrace back to Hindung with beautiful mountain views, encompassing natural landscape and downhill jungle.

We head south from Hindung to a riverside hot spring that has been created and spend an hour in the hot spring en route to Racyat and Kapur Gaon.  We will immerse ourselves in the warm water and soothe ourselves physically and mentally, thanks to a swimming pool and three taps.

Before climbing uphills and crossing the Lapa Khola on a bridge, the trail passes through Lapchyat gaon, the region’s largest Gurung village. Then we will stop here for lunch and after lunch resume walk until we arrive in Khading village.

Following a scattered rhododendron garden, we travel through a blue pine forest and terraced fields. The trail is steep uphills but is remarkably beautiful as it passes through mysterious settlements and farmlands. Magne Goth is eventually reached.

The trek rises by crossing Chote Khola before ascending through the forest and descending into a valley with spectacular views of Manaslu, which looms on the western horizon. The trek then continues through the picturesque villages of Dhonjet, Kartunje, and Manbu before returning to Dhading district and arriving at the magnificently situated Laphu Danda.

As we move towards the Ganga Jamuna, we are welcomed with a spectacular view of Mount Manaslu and other stunning mountains. We make our way to Baseri by following the trail via the lush green fields. We’ll enjoy our hike as we ascend to Dandagaon since we’ll be surrounded by greenery. After a few hours of walking, we arrive at the magnificent Ganga Jamuna twin waterfalls.

After breakfast at Ganga Jamuna village, we begin our trek to Tripura Sundari. Before reaching Tripura Sundari, we pass through Brahmin villages, paddy terraces, and low land terrain views of the surroundings.

Breakfast in the morning, say goodbye to the trekking crew, and drive back to Kathmandu which takes around 6-7 hrs. If there is heavy traffic then it will take a little bit more time to reach Kathmandu. Once you reach Kathmandu check-in in at the hotel and take a rest.
