Trip Overview

Helambu Trek – An Excursion to Apple Village of Langtang.

The journey of Helambu Trek in Nepal is very spectacular. It saves time, money and energy of any trekkers. This is the small village of the Langtang region of Nepal Trekking. Terraced farmlands, Chortens, monasteries, Tamang community and green lush forests are its features. Moreover, it is nearby the Kathmandu Valley as well. Helambu Trek takes the itinerary of Chisapani Nagarkot Trek’s first phase. Follow the itinerary until the Chisapani Village. Check out the package for more information. 

From Chisapani trekkers will have to trek through Tarkeghyang and Tharepati area. These places are famous for the green lush forests as well. The place is home to numerous wild animals and birds too. Monkey, leopards, red panda and foxes are the regulars of the place. On the trail, trekkers will see the different Chortens and mane walls. These are typical to Tibetan Buddhists people. Most of the people living in the Helambu locale are Tamang/Lama. Therefore, one can get the chance to understand these ethnic people in Nepal. Spend at least a day strolling around the village. It has so many things that can redefine your concept of rural Nepal. The sight of the Langtang Lirung Mountain and Gaurishankar are the added benefits.

The local apple farm is also the sight to visit during Helambu Trek. It is believed that most delicious apples are grown in the region. The clustered Tamang village is another attraction. Unfortunately, the 2015 earthquake destroyed the old styles of buildings in the area. You might find the modern houses in the area though. If you wish to do some volunteering then this is the right place as well. Visit the local schools and monasteries. Exchange the culture. This is going to be the most pristine short trekking journey of your lifetime.

Trekkers then return back to Melamchi Bazaar for the bus or private car drive back to Kathmandu. Book the Helambu Trek in Nepal with us. You will be wondered by the attractions naturally and culturally placed in the region. Langtang Region never fails to provide the worth of every penny spent on the trip. 

Itinerary

Subsequent to arriving in Kathmandu, a delegate from Company will pick you up and take you to your hotel. At night, there will be an appreciated supper hosted by Company. 

After breakfast, we start our voyage through four astonishing UNESCO World Heritage Sites. These incorporate the compositionally rich Durbar Square, the hallowed Hindu sanctuary of Pashupati Nath, the fascinating 'Monkey Temple' (Swayambunath) and Bauddha Nath Stupa which is probably the most enthralling stupa on the planet. 

Today, we make an hour's drive to Sundarijal (1350m), our trek begins to point. From Sundarijal, trek to Chisopani (2300m). We start our trek along with a little hydroelectric plant. The trail at that point enters through into the Shivapuri National Park. The principal settlement we run over is Mulkharka for the most part occupied by the Tamang individuals. At that point, we stroll along the edge through the woodland of oaks and rhododendron to Chisopani. 

In the wake of taking our morning breakfast, we head for a voyage to Kutumsang. Our present trek begins with a better than average intersection knolls and fields. I appreciate the wonderful perspectives on the Langtang Mountains. Consequently, we touch base at Pathi Bhanjyang and Gul Bhanjyang. From Gul Bhanjyang, the trail climbs the edge to another pass. Another declining trek from the pass takes us to Kutumsang. 

We move above Kutumsang on a precarious trail for the most part through fir and rhododendron woodland where there are no lasting settlements. The trek proceeds to Yurin Danda with superb perspectives on the Himalayas. At long last, we touch base at Tharepati for the night’s stay.

Today we head for Tarkeghyang. During the early piece of the trek, the trail slides until we cross the Melamchi Khola. At that point, we trek up to Tarkeghyang going through Sherpa settlements. Appreciate the Himalayan pinnacles ofter show up before you sparkling in the daylight. Find the town and its religious community which is one of the most seasoned and greatest cloisters in the locale.

Since, we don't pick up height that much today, it will be a relatively simple walk today. We make our way through woodlands, streams, and cascades. The trail makes a range around the wide valley end among Parachin and the Sherpa town of Gangyul. From Gangyul, we land at Sermathang. Find the town. There is likewise a Buddhist cloister at the most astounding purpose of the town. 

On our last day of the trek, we stroll down to Melamchi Pul Bazaar. The town is for the most part possessed by the Sherpa; however, there are likewise individuals of different ethnicities. From the Bazaar, we get transport to Katmandu. In the wake of achieving Kathmandu, we have the remainder of the three day weekend to rest or do some keepsake shopping. To commend the fruitful finish of our voyage, we will have a goodbye supper at night. 

Our adventure in Nepal reaches an end today! A Company delegate will drop you off at the air terminal roughly 3 hours before our booked flight. On our approach to home, you will have a lot of time to design your next experience in the magnificent nation of Nepal.
