Yala Peak |
|
This peak is situated north of
Kathmandu in Langtang area. This is an easy peak
to climb and suited for anyone with trekking
experience. We start in Syabrubesi after a 5
hour drive from Kathmandu and spend five days
hiking up the beautiful Langtang valley to
Kyanjin Gompa at 3800 m. Kyanjin Gompa is
situated below Langtang Lirung (7246 m) and we
spend three days acclimatizing taking day-hikes
in spectacular surroundings. We establish base
camp on a meadow at 4800 m and climb Yala Peak
the next day. The last 400 m is on ice so we
will be using crampons, ice axe and rope. From
the summit we can see Shishapangma (8046 m) and
the fluted Gangchempo (6388 m). After the climb
we return to Syabrubesi and drive to Kathmandu. |
