The
Villages of Helambu
This trail explores the area immediately north
of Kathmandu. Helambu lies within the cirque of
ridge line surrounding the Melamchi river. Buddhist
farming Sherpas inhabit this picturesque area
punctuated by mani walls, prayer flags, chortens
and a gompa at Tarkeghyang. This is a good trek
for those wanting a diversity of culture and fine,
if more distant, mountain views. This is an excellent
underrated route and is especially good in the
cooler months of December through February.
