Ganja La Fixed Departure - Nepal
|
 |
Ganja La
Pass (5122m): To cross from Langtang into
Helambu via the Ganja La Pass is a serious undertaking
and considering a challenging and one of the rare
trekking courses in Nepal. For three to four days there
are no facilities, and groups and their staff must be
fully self-sufficient. The route to Ganja La starts
above the settlement at Kyangjin Gompa in the Langtang
Valley (see route description for Langtang Valley). From
the pass the views across the valley to the peaks of the
Langtang Himal are particularly good. In the distance
you can see Shishapangma, the only 8000 meters peak
entirely in China (Tibet). Scattered stone shelters,
used as summer shelters by herders, are the only
evidence of human habitation. There are several fine
campsites along the ridge, which can be used by trekkers
and their staff on the trek between Ganja La and
Tarkeghayang, the first permanent settlement to be
reached. |
