Ganesh Himal Trek


Description

The Ganesh Himal trek is an alternate trek that leads you through the untouched Tamang culture, provides magnificent views of many mountains and takes you through multicolored rhododendron forests. Ganesh Himal (also known als Mt. Ganesh) is named after Hindu god Lord Ganesha. The mountain is located in western Nepal, between the Manaslu and Langtang ranges. The trek starts from Trishuli (six hours driving from Katmandu ) and ends at Gorkha (seven hours driving from Katmandu). The maximum elevation on this route is 5000 m. Part of this trek is very difficult, because of high passes and narrow trails. For this trekking, good health and experience of hiking is necessary. The enchanting panoramic views of mountains from Singla Bhanjyang and sights of the eye catching terrace land, will create unforgettable memories.

Grade

The Ganesh Himal trek can be kept in moderate category. To adjust ourselves to the high altitudes, we will take rest and acclimatize from time to time, to prevent you from facing any difficulties. Anyone with a reasonable level of physical fitness can walk this trek. Nevertheless, it is recommended to train your walking skills before you start this trek: this will help you in walking several hours a day. We will walk up to maximum 7 hours a day, after that you will have free time. It is important to take rest in this time, to adapt to the increasing altitude.

Highlights
  • Beautiful Himalayan sights on the surrounding mountains
  • Experiencing a wide variety of natural beauty during the trek
