This is a climbing trip in the Langtang valley north of
Kathmandu. The climb is easy and suited for anyone with trekking experience. We
start in Syabrubesi after a 5 hour drive from Kathmandu and spend five days
hiking up the beautiful Langtang valley to Kyanjin Gompa at 3800 m. Kyanjin
Gompa is situated below Langtang Lirung (7246 m) and we spend three days
acclimatizing taking day-hikes in spectacular surroundings. |
 |
We establish base
camp on a meadow at 4800 m and climb Yala Peak the next day. The last 400 m is
on ice so we will be using crampons, ice axe and rope. From the summit we can
see Shishapangma (8046 m) and the fluted Gangchempo (6388 m). After the climb we
return to Syabrubesi and drive to Kathmandu.
