Yala Peak Climbing

Yala Peak, which is 5732 meters high, is located in the beautiful and peaceful Langtang region, near the border with Tibet. Climbing Yala Peak is not difficult. To get to Yala Peak, you will travel through the impressive Langtang National Park. The whole experience will be an exciting adventure. You don't need any mountain climbing experience to reach the summit, but you should be in good health and fit. From the top of Yala Peak, you will have a wide view of the mountains in Nepal and Tibet. Many trekkers use this peak as a warm-up before attempting Naya Kanga on the other side of the Langtang Valley.You will arrive at Tribhuvan International Airport, and the next day, we will take you on a tour of the Kathmandu Valley.The following day, we will drive from Kathmandu to Syabrubesi and spend the night there. From Syabrubesi, we will begin our journey. You will cross the Bhote Koshi and Langtang River to reach Lama Hotel, where you will spend the night.

You will then hike from Lama Hotel to reach Langtang Village. On the way, you will pass Ghoda Tabela, where we will obtain the necessary permits and continue trekking to Langtang Village. After spending a night in Langtang Village, you will head to Kyangjin Gompa, passing several river branches and a glacial moraine. You will spend an additional day at Kyangjin Gompa for acclimatization and exploring the surrounding areas.After resting for a day at Kyangjin Gompa, you will take a glacial route to the Yala Base Camp (YBC). From the YBC, you can enjoy great views of Ganchenpo, Naya Kang, and Tserko Ri. At the YBC, our climbing guide will provide basic training on using equipment for climbing.

On the ninth day, you will reach the summit of Yala Peak early in the morning. From the top, you can see a panoramic view of mountains, including Shishapangma, Dorje Lakpa, Ganchenpo, Naya Kang, Tserko Ri, and Langtang Lirung. After spending enough time at the peak, we will descend to the Base Camp. In case you are unable to reach the summit on this day, we have set aside an extra day for this purpose.After successfully reaching the summit of Yala Peak, you will return to Lama Hotel, and the next day you will reach Syabrubesi. From there, we will take a bus back to Kathmandu.

After having breakfast in the morning, we will guide you out of the Kathmandu valley on a local bus, driving north along the pretty highway.

You will have a great view of the beautiful landscape during the journey - rivers, stepped fields, villages, and glimpses of the snowy mountains. At first, the drive is quite nice until we reach Trishuli Bazaar. After that, the road gets bumpier as it goes up to Dhunche and then comes down to Syabrubensi, which is a busy town with many things to see, including hot springs by the river.

After you reach Syabrubensi, you'll begin your walk on the paths. The path goes over the Bhote Kosi River and continues to the north along the fast Langtang River through the rich forest and flat fields. You'll go through small villages and groups of bamboo and birch trees. Here, you might see uncommon local animals, like the red panda. The path slowly goes up until you get to Lama Hotel.

Today, you will walk alongside a smaller river that flows into the Langtang river, passing through the green scenery as you climb upward. On your journey, you might now and then catch a glimpse of the snowy peaks in the distance, urging you to keep going. Eventually, the narrow river valley widens as you reach Ghoda Tabela.

In the past, at Ghoda Tabela, there used to be a project that relocated Tibetans. Currently, Ghoda Tabela is home to a military checkpoint where we will record our documents before continuing the trek. You will keep hiking past spinning prayer wheels powered by the flowing water and colorful flags with prayers written on them, and reach the beautiful Langtang, a sizable settlement mostly inhabited by Tamang people.

You will keep climbing slowly as you go through tiny towns and some open fields. The spacious valley provides extensive, all-encompassing sights. The path goes over a few smaller rivers and a pile of glacier debris, and you eventually reach the last and highest village on this trek, a spot called Kyangjin Gompa, which is named after an old monastery. Following lunch at the inn, you can choose to go on an afternoon hike to Kyajo Ri, a stunning lookout located north of this village.

The upper Langtang Valley has a lot for trekkers to discover. The high area is wide and offers amazing views of the beautiful scenery. It also lets you get closer to the mountains and the icy masses around them. There's plenty to check out and do as you have a day to explore the place. Apart from the necessary stops at the monastery and cheese factory, you can choose to take walks to Langshisa Kharka and the Tserko Ri viewpoint (5450) if you want. We head back to Kyangin Gompa in the evening.
