Overview

Yala Peak Climbing is an easy climbing trip in the Langtang Region of Nepal. The breathtaking vistas of the mountains, including the Shisapagma, Dorje Lakapa, and Lantang Lirung, will be rewarded throughout the trek. It has drawn a lot of climbers recently due to its average height.

Itinerary

On the day of your arrival, our representative will be waiting for you at the Tribhuvan International Airport. You will be driven to the hotel where our personnel will assist you till you check in. You can roam around the place or rest in the hotel. We will have a welcome dinner program in the evening, which is put on by the Nepal Vision Treks and Expedition Team. 

After breakfast, we'll begin our guided tour of the Kathmandu Valley's cultural world heritage sites, which will include stops at the Hindu Pashupatinath Temple, the largest Bouddhanath Stupa in the world, the monkey temple Swoyambhunath Stupa. We will also visit the historical Kathmandu Durbar Square to explore its surrounding temple, distinctive architectural features, and Kumari (living goddess) in the city's center. You'll also have a short discussion and introductions with our other trekking staff members before your adventure expedition in the evening. 

After breakfast, we will depart from Kathmandu and travel down a winding, uphill route that passes through the bustling market town of Trishuli Bazaar. We'll continue on a gravel road until we arrive at Syabrubesi, the starting point of the walk. The Manaslu, Ganesh Himal, and Langtang Himalayan Ranges may all be seen clearly during today's journey. You will also catch a small glimpse of local life along the drive. You will be staying overnight at Tea House Lodge at Syabrubesi a busy trading and trekking town

After breakfast, we will go out on foot at our own pace. The trail will climb steadily for two hours through the forest before leveling off for an hour as we approach Bamboo Village (1,850m/6,068ft). We will have a short break for lunch over here. Throughout the journey,  bird life is visible along the well-stabilized pathways that lead upstream on this woodland path. Another draw for tourists is the bee hives that hang from cliffs. To get to the Lama Hotel, where we will spend the night, we will climb further steeply through the bamboo jungle from here.

After leaving the Lama Hotel, we'll enter a deep forest of hemlock, oak, birch, and mountain bamboo where we can see wild monkeys and several bird species. We will follow until a lone teahouse at Gumnachok. Our trail will continue through the forest before ascending sharply towards Ghoratabela. At Ghoratabela, there is an army checkpoint where trekking permits are examined. From this point, we will continue our hike past the hamlets of Chyamki and Kangtangsa before climbing a little distance to Langtang village. 

From Langtang village, we will go to two Bhotia hamlets, Mundu and Sindum, for a short ascent that will reward us with stunning views of Langtang Lirung, Ganchenpo, and Langshisa Ri. We will continue on a path that ascends the Lirung Glacier's terminal moraine. The trail will descend to Kyangjin Gompa and numerous teahouses.

In higher altitudes, acclimatization is absolutely essential. We'll spend a day getting acclimated and exploring the area around Kyangjin Gompa. We will undertake a strenuous walk to Tsergo-Ri at a height of 4,985 meters for stunning views of Langtang Lirung and the high peaks around. 

We will move on with the track that crosses the glacier and will gradually climb to the base camp. We will get fantastic views of Yala Peak, Langtang Lirung, and other nearby high peaks while on our hike. As soon as we get to the base camp, we will swiftly erect our camps and perform any necessary checks on our health and climbing equipment in order to successfully ascend Yala Peak.

We will finally reach Yala Peak, our intended summit. After being fully prepared and acclimatized, we will set out early because strong afternoon winds can present difficulties that will make climbing impossible. We will go to Yala Peak by following our knowledgeable climbing expert's lead and advice. From the point, you'll get awe-inspiring vistas of Shishapangma, Dorje Lakpa, Langtang Lirung, Ganchenpo, Naya Kanga Peak, and numerous other snow-capped high mountains await us once we reach the summit. We will spend some time at the peak before returning to the base camp using the same route we used to ascend.

We will retrace our steps after ascending Yala Peak. We will use the same route that passes via Kangjin Gompa before carrying on hiking till we reach Langtang hamlet. 

After leaving Langtang Village, we'll continue on the main trail in the direction of Ghoratabela. From there, it will be a short downhill hike through a forested area populated with oak, birch, hemlock, and Himalayan bamboo before we arrive at Lama Hotel.

We will continue our trip from Lama Hotel to Syabrubesi on the main trail, which drops all the way down. Our journey for the day will end with a rather simple downward climb through a forested area dotted with rhododendron, oak, pine trees, various traditional villages, and terraced farmlands. 

From Syabrubesi, we'll take the winding, hilly roads back to Kathmandu. As we travel through numerous villages and towns, we will get some chance to observe how locals go about their everyday lives in order to survive.

You will undoubtedly want to take in as much of Kathmandu as you can. It is practical to have an early start to tour the Kathmandu temples. Additionally, spending time in Kathmandu by strolling through Thamel's retail district is worthwhile. In the evening, we'll share our last meal together.

On the last day of the trip, you will be free to do any last-minute shopping for gifts or souvenirs for your loved ones before your departure flight or drive. You can also choose to start any further adventures or activities you may have reserved with us. If you are leaving, you will be taken to the international airport to catch your aircraft to your next stop.
