Actually, Yala Peak doesn’t demand prior mountaineering experience. It means those who have sound stamina and have previous hiking and trekking experience can achieve the victory of climbing this wonderful expedition in the popular Langtang region of Nepal.  It means, even beginners can do Yala Peak climbing with the company of a veteran climbing guide who will assist you with every step of your climbing.

Presenting fact, trekkers/ climbers will not encounter technical steep rocks and a big mass of snow during the Yala Peak climbing. So, you do not need to panic while undertaking your Yala Peak Climbing. But, it doesn’t mean that it is easy to climb. Since this adventurous trekking in Nepal, as well as climbing, intermingled with popular Langtang trekking, the trekkers will not only experience the real thrills of adventurous trekking in Nepal and climbing but will also explore authentic Tibetan Buddhist civilization at the same. Besides Yala Peak, Kyanjin Gompa, Langtang Valley, and unique cultural heritages are other highlights of this adventure trekking/climbing. To scale YalaPeak, you have to follow the same trekking trail of Langtang-Kyanjin Gompa trekking until you reach KanjingGompa.

After 8-9 hours of scenic drive to SyabruBesi from Kathmandu, this trip commences. You have to undertake at least five days trek to get to the beautiful and mesmerizing Langtang Valley. After exploring Langtang Valley,  you will ascend to Kanjing Gompa which is tremendously enriched with Tibetan Buddhist heritages and culture. Kyanjin Gompa is situated just below Langtang Lirung (7246 m). We acclimatize by taking day hikes around exploring the marvelous Himalayas setting at Kyanjin Gompa. After we are acclimatized,  we will ascend to set our base camp on a meadow at 4800 m and climb Yala Peak climbing the next day. On the climbing day, we need to start as early as possible because we don’t want the strong wind to interrupt us while climbing.   Actually, the last portion of the trip is on ice.

You will follow your guide and you will be using crampons, ice ax, and rope as well. Around 700m trip is a bit technical at last which requires special attention and confidence. From the summit of Yala Peak,  you will be able to witness Shishapangma (8046 m) and the fluted Gangchempo (6388m), and many other alluring mountain summits in the Langtang region of Nepal. After submitting Yala Peak climbing you will continue the trek down to Syabrubesi and drive back to Kathmandu.

We have designed our Yala Peak Climbing with special attention so that everyone with sound stamina for hiking or trekking and sound health can accomplish this adventure without any obstacles provided that the weather condition is okay. We operate this climbing trip employing local professional climbers who will help you and teach you how to handle wild nature during the climb.

FAQs

What is Trekking and how it is different from climbing and hiking?

Trekking lies between hiking and climbing. Climbing is strenuous hiking is easier and trekking is neither tough nor easy. However, trekking also can be categorized into three different types: easy, moderate, and strenuous. It is meant to say dat trekking also can be strenuous according to the level of difficulty.

Trekking is a walk in the mountain. Trekking is for witnessing mountain views, going through the various settlements and flora and fauna, and being an integral part of nature in the wild.  Various species of floras and faunas, breathtaking mountain views, walking into the wild, stunning sunrises and sunsets, and experiencing local culture are the primary highlights of trekking.

Trekking, fundamentally, can be of two types. They are camping trekking and tea house trekking. A few decades ago, camping trekking would be very popular among trekkers but now tea house trekking is considerably preferred by the people. However, the most natural form of trekking is camping.

Certain procedures are to be completed to do trekking. Trekkers must join a valid travel company and have attained the required permits for a particular trekking trip.

 

How difficult is trekking in Nepal?

Nepal offers all three categories of trekking but the difficulty level depends on what category of trekking trip you choose. However, you will encounter a wide range of ups and downs during a trekking trip. Normally, a trekker has to walk in the mountain at least for 6-7 hours. Relatively, as the ascent rises, the more difficult the trekking will be. You will, normally, begin your trek in the morning at around 8 am after breakfast, tan, take a lunch break in the afternoon for an hour, and continue walking till 4-5 or sometimes, till 6 pm. However, some trekking trips are really easy you only have to work for 3-4 hours a day not getting much elevation. Therefore, choose a trekking trip to suit you're interest and stamina.

Is it safe to travel to Nepal?

Travelers have always found Nepal as a safe destination for various types of holidays. Previously, there was a war between the Nepal Government and Maoists for more than a decade but right now, everything is settled peacefully and a new constitution has been promulgated.  There is no domestic violence in Nepal at the moment.

Similarly, there is no threat for solo and female travelers traveling in Nepal. Security forces have been installed in every trekking and tour route. Moreover, there is internet and phone call access in every corner of the mountain region of Nepal. You can make an instant call to avoid any unforeseen circumstances. Also, an instant rescue is carried out as soon as you report to the concerned officials in case of danger. Therefore, Nepal is safe for traveling.

 

What are the minimum and maximum duration for trekking in Nepal?

Even for the shortest and easiest trek, trekkers have to allocate 3-4 days and the longest trekking in Nepal will be 22 days. The easier and shorter treks will be near the cities and the longer ones will take you to some of the most remote areas of Nepal crossing the adventurous high passes. So, you can plan a trekking trip according to the length of you're holiday. Also, you ask your travel partner to set the duration of trekking letting them know how many days you have.

Do I need some sort of training before going to Everest Base Camp or other trekking areas in Nepal?

Training is not required to go to Everest Base Camp, however, some other challenging trekking need some basic training. You are required to prepare yourself by boosting you're stamina by walking at least 5-7 hours at a higher elevation above 4000m for Everest Base Camp Trek and for other strenuous treks like the Everest Three Passes Trek, trekkers are required to learn very basic skills of handling crampons and ice ax. Otherwise, there is now such a trekking trip in Nepal that needs special training.

How safe is the water to drink in the mountain?

It is not recommended to drink water from the local taps and rivers while trekking in the mountains because the water may not be safe and may result from water-borne diseases which ultimately affect your entire trip. Therefore, you are suggested to get boiled or purified bottled water or you can apply water purification methods.

What are the basic tips for the beginner trekker who doesn’t have experience in the trek?

Do easier treks in the beginning. It means you can undertake a 3-5 day trek at the beginning at a lower elevation ranging between 2000 to 3000m. Then, gradually, go for a bit longer and, finally venture on the strenuous one. Before boarding on a trek, it is mandatory to do regular exercises and walk in the hills for at least 3-4 hours.

Do we need a guide or a porter?

The guide is mandatory but the porter is not. The government of Nepal has implemented the rule that the foreign trekkers must be accompanied by a guide, otherwise, they are not permitted to enter teh area they are going to. But, if you wish to carry you're stuff on your own, tan, a porter is not required. However, in some cases,   you require a porter too. So, you are suggested to fix all teh things regarding the porter and guide. Guide and porter will help you in many ways during a trek in teh mountains.

When is the best season for trekking in Nepal?

Autumn (Sep-Nov) is the best season for trekking in Nepal. Optionally, people also love to trek in Nepal in Spring( Mar-May). People, first, go to Autumn and then to Spring for trekking in Nepal. During these two seasons, there is no rain or snowfall in teh mountains. So, every trekking trip will be conveniently accomplished. Similarly, teh mountain panoramas are breathtaking.

Food and accommodation are provided in teh teahouse/guesthouse/hotel during teh trek. But, unlike that, for a camping trek, one is required to hire porters, cooks, Sherpas, and guides which are considered to be more strenuous. Therefore, trekkers love doing teahouse trekking rather than camping trekking these days.

What type of food will be served during the trekking?

If you are trekking near teh cities you will enjoy a variety of food items as you do get in modern restaurants but you will get teh food items like pieces of bread, noodles, dumpling, Nepali Daal Bhat, Pizza, and various curry items. Besides, egg items, seasonal fruits, and other local items of food will be offered to teh trekkers during their trek. You will have all three different meals at teh teahouse/guesthouse/hotel.

Every foreign tourist needs to obtain two types of trekking permits: a TIMS (Trekking Information Management System) Card and a National Park or any kind of Protected or Conservation Area Permit. If trekkers are not entering teh protected area, tan, they don’t require obtaining a Protected Area Entry Permit. Only teh TIMS Card will work. But, more importantly, if teh trekkers are going to a restricted area, they need to obtain a special area entry permit. dis is an extra. And, teh local government of teh Everest Region introduced a local area permit for teh development tourism of in teh region. If people are making teh trekking trip to the Everest Region, tan, they require obtaining dis local area entry permit too.

How high is the chance of getting altitude sickness and prevention?

Altitude cases are very rare. However, people, sometimes, get altitude sickness while going above 3000m. It is said dat no people get altitude sickness below 3000m and this is true too.
