The Gosaikunda Lauribina Pass Trek kicks off with a scenic drive to Dhunche village, a culturally rich settlement inhabited by ethnic groups like the Tamang, Sherpa, and Gurung, who follow traditions largely influenced by Tibetan culture. This picturesque village serves as the gateway to the trek. As you embark on the journey, the trail winds through lush forests, alongside rivers, and past terraced hills. The vibrant rhododendron forests bloom with color during spring, offering trekkers a visually stunning landscape, while the towering snow-covered peaks of the Himalayas provide a majestic backdrop. The route then leads to Chandanbari/Shin Gompa, a small village known for its monastery and cheese factory, before heading towards the spiritual hub, Gosaikunda Lake.
Gosaikunda is a sacred site surrounded by other smaller lakes like Saraswatikunda and Bhairav Kunda, and is steeped in Hindu mythology. According to legend, Lord Shiva created Gosaikunda using his trident to relieve himself from the poison he swallowed to save the world. After visiting this holy lake, the trek continues over the challenging Lauribina Pass, offering spectacular panoramic views of the Himalayas. The descent takes trekkers through the remote villages of Ghopte, Tharepati, Kutumsang, and Chisapani, providing insight into the traditional mountain lifestyle. The journey wraps up with a scenic drive back to Kathmandu via Sundarijal, marking the end of an adventurous and spiritually enriching trek.
There are no boundaries of time for embarking on the Gosaikunda Lauribina Pass Trek but for the proper trekking experience and achievement of satisfaction, we recommend trekking in the months of autumn or spring. It is because of the favorable weather, vivid sceneries, and blossoming of flora and fauna, especially Rhododendron. As well as, during winter and rainy seasons, the trail gets more complicated as well as cold and slippery.
