Gosaikund Helambu Trek in Nepal is a moderate walking route in the Langtang region. It covers the beautiful forested area of Helambu as well as the religious Gosaikund Lake. Himalayan Ecological Trekking is probably the only trekking agency in Nepal having diversified holiday packages. We have differently themed trekking and tour packages for the same region as well. Gosaikund Helambu Trek starts from Kathmandu to Dhunche. Once at Dhunche, trekkers will meet the crew members and start walking.

Most of the walking until trekkers reach Gosaikund Lake is uphill. Even if the trail is uphill, trekkers will forget the pain due to the scenic beauty. Waterfall, mountain vista, green lush forests, and the chirping sound of the birds make the journey blissful. For more information about the mythological aspect of the Gosaikund Lake, please refer to our Langtang Gosaikund Lake Trek package. The notable places before reaching the lake are Chandanbari and Lauribina Pass. The myth and the natural beauty make the Gosaikund Helambu Trek unique as well as fulfilling. After the exploration, lake trekkers will enter the Helambu Melamchi section of the Langtang region. Melamchi's side is famous for its green, lush forests and water resources. The terraced farmlands and the fresh spring water are good reasons to walk on the Gosaikund Helambu trek. The trail’s part is within the Langtang National Park.

Therefore, trekkers will have the chance to have wild experiences firsthand. Join us to make your dream true.
