Helambu Trek

Helambu Trek

This region is inhabited by Sherpas whom you can include the Helambu in a Langtang Trek either via Gosainkunda or across Ganja La. The language, culture and dress of the Helambu Sherpas are very different from the Solu Khumbu Sherpas. This is the best area of Nepal Himalayas for shorter and easier alpine trekkers to mix up in isolated society.

The Helambu area has a series of high ridges with a stunning brilliant green valleys, misty rhododendron forests and snowy mountain peaks on the distant horizon, Helambu is another ideal short trek. There are simple tea houses along this route, yet the area remains relatively unspoiled. You will experience the Yolmo culture in high mountain villages, be enchanted by vistas of lonely high mountains, and watch farmers toil in the fields using hand-made tools and teams of water-buffalo. The high villages of melemchigaon and Tarke Ghyang are especially interesting with their old Ghompas and quaint house.
