Yala Peak is one of Nepal's easier trekking
peaks, just to the north of Kathmandu
in the beautiful Langtang valley region,
this 5500 meters peak does not require
mountaineering experience. From Kathmandu
we drive to Dhunche or Syabru Bensi
then we follow the trekking rout of
Lang tang valley on till kyangjin gompa.
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 Dhunche via Syabrubesi
and drive to Kathmandu..
