17-Days NEPAL Langtang / Helambu Trek (111,13 KB)
This trek has been considered as a new trek as it was opened for trekking enthusiasts not so long go. This trek offers considerably spectacular views of mountains, meadows, forests, different wild animals, birds, glaciers and many more. Cheese factories, monasteries,and other monuments are other highlights of this trek. Moreover, Gosainkunda, a big lake dedicated to Lord Shiva and as legend would have us believe, the habitat of Lord Shiva is extremely enthralling where Hindu pilgrims gather to take a holy bath in monsoon. According to legend, Lord Shiva created Gosainkunda when he pierced his Trident to obtain water to quench his thirst after having swallowed "Kalkut", a very dangerous poison.
