Trip Overview

Overview

Experience 10 days trekking through untouched traditional villages to reach the holy lake Bhairav Kunda. Bhairav Kunda, one of the holiest shrines for Shamans, bears the name of Lord Shiva's destructive form.

Both Hindu and Buddhist devotees travel to this holy mountain lake at a height of 4200 meters every year around the time of the Bhadra (August) Full Moon to offer respect and bathe to wash away sins.

Journey Route to Bhairav Kunda

After 5-6 hours driving from Kathmandu, the trek starts at Jalbire. We travel through a mixture of beautiful mountain scenery and the terraced fields and characteristic houses of rural villages from different ethnic groups.

You will spend your first night experiencing the 'Newari' culture of Jalbire. Your Guide will give a short talk on trekking, altitude sickness and the highlights of the trek. These include the holy Bhairav Kunda, the incredible Himalayan scenery and the life style of nomadic people unchanged by time.

Your trail winds along an old trade route between Nepal and Tibet. through a number of unspoilt Buddhist villages, past chortens and Sherpa houses. The unusual climatic and geographical mix make this area a naturalist's dream and a mecca for those who appreciate traditional cultures.

Along the trail you will experience spectacular views of mountains in Tibet  and the Jugal Himal section of the Himalayan Range, which includes the peaks of Dorje Lakpa (6966), Madiya (6257M) and Phurbi Ghhyachu (6637m).

On the final day of the tour we take a bus  to Kathmandu.

Highlights 

  • Visit the Hindus and Buddhist holy Bhairav Kunda Lake.
  • Adventurous camping trek to the untouched area of the Langtang region.
  • Picturesque views of Himalayan panorama ranges
  • Explore the livelihood of locals and their lifestyle.
  • Taking the natural hot spring in Tatopani
