The route to Ganesh Himal Trek lies west to the Langtang National Park and is inhabited by people of Tamang origin. Therefore, Ganesh Himal Trek can be an opportunity to explore Tamang villages and get some insights on people, their culture, custom, and unique lifestyle.

Stunning Scenery During Ganesh Himal Trek

The trail of Ganesh Himal Trek takes you to a heavenly place that lies in between the lush hills and forests in the backdrop of beautiful Himalayas. Ganesh Himal Trek takes you along an off the beaten route to applaud the beauty that lies in the peak of Ganesh Himal.

The name – Ganesh comes from the name of a Hindu deity – Lord Ganesh who is regarded as a god of fortune. As per Hindu mythology, the head of Lord Ganesha was replaced with the head of an elephant when his father – cut off his head in anger unaware of the fact that Lord deer is his son. The peak of Ganesh Himal resembles Ganesha as that of a wild elephant therefore regarded as Ganesh Himal.

Ganesh Himal Trek starts with a drive from capital city of Nepal – Kathmandu to Betrawati. As you proceed with the trek, you pass vibrant villages, azure lakes, waterfalls, and forests in the backdrop of the beautiful Himalayas. As the trail is less unexplored, the region maintains its natural glory intact. You will pass the diverse vegetation area that traverses from farmland, dense forests to the alpine region.

With the diversity in vegetation, you will notice the diversity in floras and faunas as you make your way to the Ganesh Himal. Ganesh Himal region preserves many species of plants, birds, and animals; if lucky you may encounter animals like Himalayan Thar, musk and many unique species of birds.

As you cross the Sing La pass, you will be blessed with some rewarding views of mountains like Langtang Lirung, Dorje Lakpa, Hiunchuli, Buddha Himal and many more. So, get ready to immerse in this intense beauty of mountains, hills, forests, rivers, and waterfalls! Nepal Intrepid Treks is here to make your journey full of wonders and adventures.
