Almost all the roadway up to Syabrubesi is quite good. Drive from Kathmandu to Syabrubesi on a private Jeep provided by the Himalayan Masters team will definitely be pleasing. In the last part, the route is off-road, making it a bit harder. Covering 145 km in a public vehicle with small seats and loud music might not be very pleasing. As it takes about seven hours, we cannot start the trek today.

This is an easy and relaxing day on the Langtang Valley trek. Most of the distance from Langtang to Kyanjin Gompa is on the alpine grassland with a beautiful landscape. The path is quite rocky and you must be careful in some sections but the overall walk is going to be easy as we reach the destination before mid-day.
5. Kyanjin Gompa to Tsrong Ri distance: 10kms/ 6.2 miles
Today’s walk is optional. If you don’t feel like walking, you can simply rest at Kyanjin Gompa and visit around the village including the Yak cheese factory. Alternatively, we can walk up to Tsrong Ri which is a small high pass near the area. Walking to Tsrong Ri gives a clear view of the surrounding mountains.
