The Ganjala pass trek is one of the most adventurous trekking trails in Langtang region. The trail involves crossing one of the highest Ganga La pass located at an altitude of 5106m.
The trek starts from Syabrubesi and passes through Lama Hotel, Kyanjing Gomba, and Lantang Village and drops down to Helambu region via Ganga La pass. The Galnjala pass trek follows the Langtang valley trek until Kyangin Gompa and takes a right turn towards to Ganjala peak. The area falls within Langtang National Park which is home to rare species such as Red Panda, Black Bear and even Snow Leopard. You will come across many Tamang villages on this trek while enjoying a beautiful panoramic view of Langtang Lirung, Ganesh Himal, Dorje Lakpa, Yala Peak, Naya Kanga, Gaurishanker and the Annapurna Himalayan range.
Visiting Kyangjin Monastery at a height of 3049m will present you with breathtaking views of Langtang peaks. During springtime, the forest comes to live with Rhododendrons blooming on all sides. You will also visit a cheese factory set up by the Swiss Association for Technical Assistance in 1955. Explore Langsisha Kharka and Tserku Ri and prepare for the adventure Ganjala pass. Once you cross the pass then you will enter into the Helambu region which is totally different than you had seen in Langtang valley.
