Nepal Hiking walking to Ganesh Himal Trekking making a way to the north central Nepal from Kathmandu provide trekkers with best Himalayan views of Langtang valley off the beaten track trek of Nepal. Trishuli gandaki valley on the east separates it from the Langtang himal. The highest peak on this range is Yangra (Ganesh I) 7,422 m with three other peak above 7,000 m plus around fourteen other above 6,000 m. So obviously Ganesh himal trek can be taken as the place where trekkers will surely wish to have all of their life and will taken away by the views and the route which are off the beaten track.
The name Ganesh is derived for the Hindu script which means Elephant. Just like the name this mountain also resemble the elephant trunk that we can imagine clearly once we have our visit for Ganesh Himal there are five major groups of peaks for trek: Ganesh Himal trek, Langtang Himal trek, Manaslu trek, Hiunchuli trek and the large Annapurna Himalayan range between Kathmandu and Pokhara cities. Many trekkers recommend this route though it is not as popular as Annapurna and Everest. It is famous for Tamang Culture, spectacular mountain views and rhododendron forest. The Ganesh Himal range consists of several peaks over 7000m in elevation with uninhabited foothills running down to the south and west. No specific permit is needed to trek in Ganesh Himal area.
For Ganesh Himal Trek first ascent of ganesh I happened on 6th October 1955. Summit group was confirmed by famous guide Raymond Lambert, Pierre Vittoz, Eric Gauchar with all of them Swiss, and French Mme. We can also find about the beauty of this place of different books written by writers.
