Ganjala Chuli, also known as Naya Kanga, stands at 5,844 meters (Naya Kaga) and is renowned as one of the most adventurous climbing spots in Nepal, incorporating the Langtang-Helambu trek. The Langtang region is celebrated for its accessibility, making it a prime destination for climbers ranging from novices to experience. This area is surrounded by snow-capped peaks perfect for acclimatization and offers breathtaking panoramic views of the mountains in Nepal and Tibet. Among these are Langshisa Ri, Pemthang Ri, Shisapangma, Langtang Lirung, Pemthang Kapro Ri, and Langtang II. The typical ascent route for Naya Kanga is via the northeast ridge, across ice and snow.
The approach to Naya Kanga begins with the Langtang trek to Kyangjin, where climbers can acclimatize on nearby hills with stunning views. Northeast of Kyangjin RI, Yala Peak, and Tsergo Peak serve as excellent acclimatization climbs. The climb to Naya Kanga involves crossing the Langtang Khola, ascending through rhododendron and juniper forests, and then through yak pastures to Ngegang. From here, the path leads steeply through moraine to Ganja La, then onto the glacier shelf beneath Naya Kanga’s northeast face, where a high camp is established. The ascent involves crossing the glacier to a couloir that leads to the north ridge, tackling a technical ice section, and navigating the summit ridge to the peak. The summit climb typically takes 5-7 hours from high camp, with the descent following either the Ganja La-Helambu route or retracing the approach through Dhunche.

After exploring these rich cultural sites, you will have time to rest before we meet again in our office for a trek briefing. tonight, we are going to finalize your preparations for the Langtang Valley trek, including packing and last-minute shopping, while our team handles all necessary trek permits. This ensures a smooth start to your upcoming adventure.
Your journey on the Northern Highway from Kathmandu transitions beautifully through Middle Hill forest and farmland, crossing the Tadi Khola at Devighat before navigating the Trisuli Valley. Ascending through rhododendron forests, the route reaches Thulo Bharku, a quaint Tamang village at 2,140 meters. Here, you’ll enjoy lunch in a grove, savoring views of the majestic Ganesh Himal and therefore the ranges along the Tibetan border. The trail then gently descends to Thulo Syabru, a Tamang heritage village, where you’ll spend the night. This trek offers a mix of natural beauty and cultural insight, making it a memorable experience.
Today’s trek begins by winding down from the village ridge to U Kang and descends towards the Langtang Khola, which originates from the Langtang Glacier on Langtang Ri. This glacier is notably near the Tibetan border. At a T-junction, you’ll turn east onto a trail that runs high above the south bank of the river, passing through diverse forests of oak, rhododendron, and bamboo.
These forests are home to an array of wildlife, including numerous bird species, grey langurs, red pandas, wild boars, and Himalayan black bears. The trek continues to Bamboo, located at 1,930 meters, where the trail crosses to the northern side of the stream and moves into the drier scrub forest. Along this segment, you’ll pass several beautiful waterfalls before climbing to the split village of Renche at 2,400 meters.
From Renche, the trail rises gently to Changtang then on to the Lama Hotel, where you’ll spend the night. This leg of the journey offers not only a chic natural setting but also a superb opportunity to watch wildlife in their natural habitat.
Today’s trek starts with a mild climb through a stunning mixed forest of rhododendron, oak, hemlock, and maple, gradually becoming steeper. As you ascend, you’ll catch intriguing glimpses of the towering Langtang Himal to the north. The trail then descends to a quaint teahouse by the river, providing a peaceful spot for an occasion before climbing to Ghora Tabela, a settlement that features a hotel and a military post, located at 2,970 meters.
The journey continues into the broad, U-shaped valley shaped by the Langtang, Shalbachum, and Lirung Glaciers. As you climb the hillside, you’ll traverse scrub forests and terraced fields where local staples like barley, buckwheat, and potatoes are cultivated. the trail then leads you through the villages of Thangshyap, Chamki, and Ghumba, the latter featuring a motivating gompa (monastery).
Along the way, you will see water-driven prayer wheels and mills, elements typical of the region’s spiritual existence. The trek concludes for the day in the village of Langtang, located at 3,430 meters, in its stunning valley. This village was the previous headquarters of Langtang Park and offers a major place to rest and reflect on the journey. Overnight in Langtang allows for a deeper appreciation of the local culture and natural surroundings.
After departing Langtang village, your trek quickly results in Mundu, a little settlement reached within half an hour. Mundu showcases traditional houses and offers several teahouses catering to trekkers, providing a glimpse into the local lifestyle. Continuing from Mundu, the route ascends through picturesque yak pastures and crosses several bridges thanks to Kyanjin Gompa. Given the short distance from Langtang to Kyanjin Gompa, you will have ample time to explore the realm later in the day.
Kyanjin Gompa is thought for its local cheese factory and an ancient monastery. Visiting the cheese factory, you’ll need the chance to look at the cheese-making process and sample a number of the delicious products. Additionally, if you’re up for more adventure, an optional hike to Kyanjin Ri could be a fantastic choice. This vantage offers a shocking opportunity to witness an exquisite sunset together with breathtaking views of mountains like Dorje Lakpa, Langshisha, and Gang Chenpo. This part of the trek not only immerses you in the natural great things about the region but also offers a taste of local culture and culinary traditions.
Today is an important acclimatization day to assist minimize the danger of Acute altitude sickness (AMS). the recommendation from experts is to “climb high and sleep low,” which implies engaging in light activity even during rest days to regulate the altitude effectively.
A recommended activity may be a morning hike to Tsergo Ri, which stands at an elevation of 5,000 meters. From the summit, you will be rewarded with stunning panoramic views of the glacier tumbling from Langtang Lirung, the very best peak within the area at 7,227 meters, and other significant peaks like Kinshung, Yansa Tsenji, Dorje Lakpa, Ganchenpo, Dshabu Ri, and Urking Kanggari. Additionally, you’ll be able to glimpse Shisha Pangma, located just beyond the border in China, notable as China’s only 8,000-meter peak.
After descending back to the teahouse for lunch, the afternoon is ideal for exploring the Kyanjin Valley and its glaciers more easily. This acclimatization day isn’t only beneficial for your health but also allows you to deeply appreciate the majestic surroundings. Overnight are at the teahouse, ensuring a restful end to a lively day.
After breakfast, we start our trek from Kyanjin Gompa toward the Naya Kanga Base Camp at an elevation of around 5,000 meters. The trail gradually ascends through rugged alpine terrain, offering incredible views of the surrounding snow-capped peaks like Langtang Lirung, Yala Peak, and Tserko Ri. As we leave the last settlement behind, the landscape becomes more remote and pristine, with silence broken only by the sound of wind and the occasional chirping of high-altitude birds.
The trek to base camp takes us through moraines and rocky paths, requiring steady pace and proper acclimatization. Our experienced guides ensure safety and provide support throughout the climb. Upon reaching base camp, we set up our tents and enjoy a warm, hearty meal prepared by our team. The surrounding panoramic mountain views from the base camp are truly spectacular, setting the stage for the exciting climb ahead. We take time to rest, hydrate, and prepare our gear for the next day’s climbing activities.
After breakfast, we begin a short hike around the Naya Kanga Base Camp to help with acclimatization and prepare our bodies for the upcoming summit push. The base camp, located at 5,410 meters, offers incredible panoramic views of the surrounding snow-capped peaks and deep alpine valleys. This rest day is essential for adjusting to the high altitude and regaining strength before the technical climb ahead.
During the day, our climbing guide will conduct a brief training session to review the use of climbing gear such as harnesses, ropes, ice axes, and crampons. This is a great opportunity for both beginners and experienced climbers to familiarize themselves with the techniques required for a safe ascent. The peaceful environment and stunning Himalayan backdrop also provide time to relax, reflect, and mentally prepare for the adventure that lies ahead.
We spend the rest of the day hydrating well, enjoying warm meals prepared by our crew, and getting ample rest inside our tents. As night falls, the clear sky often reveals countless stars over the white peaks, offering a magical moment of calm before tomorrow’s challenge.
After breakfast, we start trekking from Naya Kanga Base Camp towards the High Camp, gradually ascending through rocky terrain and icy trails. This section of the route becomes more challenging as we gain elevation, and the air grows thinner. The trail offers stunning views of the surrounding Langtang peaks, including Langtang Lirung and Ganchenpo, which inspire us with every step. Our experienced guides set a steady pace, ensuring proper acclimatization and safety as we approach the higher altitude.
Upon reaching the High Camp at 5,297 meters, we take time to rest and adjust to the elevation. The camp is strategically located to provide good shelter and a stunning panorama of snow-capped mountains. Our team will set up tents, prepare warm meals, and make final checks on climbing gear. In the evening, we’ll go over summit day plans, review safety protocols, and rest early in preparation for the next day’s big climb to the summit of Naya Kanga Peak.
After breakfast, we start trekking from the high camp towards the summit of Naya Kanga Peak (5,846m). The trail begins with a gradual climb over rocky terrain, then becomes steeper as we ascend the snow-covered slopes. This section requires the use of crampons, ropes, and ice axes, and our experienced climbing guides will lead the way with full safety support. The climb typically takes 6 to 8 hours depending on weather conditions and climber fitness, so we start early to make the most of stable morning weather.
As we near the summit, the effort is rewarded with stunning panoramic views of the Langtang Himalayan range, including Langtang Lirung, Dorje Lakpa, Pemthang Ri, and even distant peaks in Tibet like Shishapangma. Standing on the summit is a thrilling and emotional experience—truly a once-in-a-lifetime moment for many climbers. After taking some time to enjoy the scenery and capture photos, we carefully descend back to high camp, where we rest and reflect on the incredible achievement of summiting Naya Kanga.
After breakfast, we start trekking early in the morning, heading toward the summit of Naya Kanga Peak (5,844m). The climb begins with a gradual ascent over rocky terrain, followed by a steep and snowy slope leading to the summit ridge. Using crampons, ice axe, and ropes as needed, we steadily move upward under the guidance of our experienced climbing guide. The climb requires both physical endurance and mental focus, especially in the final stretch. Once at the summit, we are rewarded with stunning panoramic views of the Langtang Himal, Shishapangma (8,013m), Dorje Lakpa, and other snow-covered giants of the region.
We take some time at the top to capture the beauty and sense of achievement before beginning our descent. Carefully retracing our steps, we descend from the summit back to high camp and continue down to Base Camp. The return journey is physically easier but requires attention due to the steep sections. Upon reaching Base Camp, we rest and reflect on the incredible accomplishment of summiting one of Nepal’s most accessible yet beautiful trekking peaks. The evening is spent enjoying a warm meal and sharing stories of the day’s adventure with fellow climbers.

Along the way, we cross several suspension bridges over the Langtang River, adding excitement to the otherwise peaceful walk.
The trail gently descends through Ghodatabela, where we may take a short rest and enjoy some tea while taking in the views one last time. From here, the path continues through serene pine forests and waterfalls, offering a tranquil environment perfect for reflection after the adventures in the higher elevations. Though the day is mostly downhill, it’s important to walk carefully, especially on rocky and slippery sections of the trail.
