Highlights

Yala is one of the most popular ‘trekking peaks’ in the Langtang Region of Nepal. It offers the best thrill of adventure while trekking and peak climbing though it is categorized as an easy climbing peak as per the Alpine Grading System. Scaling to the summit depends on the snow condition especially in the winter. The peak is seldom climbed in its own right, often being used as a warm-up for Naya Kanga on the opposite side of the valley. The summit gives surprisingly good views of of many beautiful mountains – LangtangLirung (7,246m), Lenpo Gang 7,083m), DorjeLakpa (6,990m) and mighty Shishapangma (8,027m) on the Tibetan side if you are lucky enough with the good weather. Starting from SyabruBensi after 8 hrs. drive from Kathmandu, you will trek through dense forest and traditional ethnic settlements along the route until you reach in Yala Peak base camp at the end of the journey and then climb a high camp further half day trek from base camp. We will spend two days for acclimatizing and day excursion around surrounding area at KyanjinGompa (3,800m) which is situated below LangtangLirung (7,246m). During the excursion you will explore the Langshisa glacier. After Yala Peak base camp we will set up a high camp at 4800 meters from where you climb to the summit. The Yala Peak climb is non-technical and prior climbing experience is not required. However, extensive outdoor experience and a reasonably good level of fitness is necessary and that enables you to thoroughly enjoy your adventure climbing expedition.
