Langtang + Gosaikunda Trek

Set off on a spiritual journey to the heart of the Tibetan Buddhist enclave in Nepal's Langtang Valley, close to the Tibetan border. The Tamang Heritage Trek is not only a spectacular physical trek, but it also provides a significant chance for self-discovery as you immerse yourself in the lively culture of Tamang people.

The Tamang people of the upper Himalayas are devoted Tibetan Buddhists who practice Bon Lamaism, a unique blend of Shamanism and Buddhism. The word "Tamang" is believed to be derived from "Tamag," where "Ta" means "horse" and "Mag" means "soldier" in Tibetan.

The Tamang Heritage Trek begins in the scenic Syabru Besi Village beside the Bhotekoshi River and takes you through the pure and unspoilt splendor of the Langtang valley. Unlike the more popular Annapurna and Everest regions, Langtang is a well-kept secret, heavily influenced by Tibetan Buddhism and culture.

You'll come to Langtang Himal, a towering hill where glacial meltwaters pour to form the Trishuli River. Notably, the mystical Gosainkunda Lake, which freezes over for six months each year from October to June, is of enormous spiritual significance. Pilgrims from Nepal and India go to this holy location during festivals such as Gangadashahara and Janai Purnima. According to legend, Lord Shiva built Gosainkunda by putting his sacred Sword into a mountain to collect water, which soothed his throat after consuming poison.

The Tamang Heritage Trek, which follows the traditional trade route between Langtang and Ganesh Himal, is an exciting tour through the Tamang people's rich cultural tapestry.
