The Ganesh Himal is named after the elephant-headed God of Good Fortune. The Ganesh Himal can clearly be seen from Kathmandu Valley. The Ganesh
Range Peaks (Ganesh I, Ganesh II, Ganesh III, Ganesh IV) stand out like crystal, that is the "Great Himalayan Chain" forming the skyline. This great Himalayan massif is contained between the valley of the Buri Gandaki in the west and Bhote Koshi in the east, which becomes Trishuli Khola in the lower section.
Trekking in Ganesh himal region is enriched with its rich Flora: the impressive display of berberis, primula, orchids and a variety of Ferns, the valleys set ablaze
by yellow blossoms of double Jasmine, the forest dense with Spanish oak, blue pine, and in spring time blossoming of the rhododendron set whole forest alight in spectacular arrays of color. Another feature includes the abundance of crystals which is regarded valuable and precious stone. The trekking route passes through quite Tamang villages, hot spas, gorges and glaciers and magnificent sceneries. Ganesh Himal Trekking can be organized only camping.
From the Singla Top the Manaslu massif, with Manaslu (8163m) poking up from behind the Ganesh Himal appears before you. To the northwest is the Ganesh Himal and at
other side looms Langtang Himal. Ganesh (7406m) and her sisters jut up from the valley below like large crystals thrust out of the earth, creating a stunning panorama of glaciers, peaks, rock, snow and ice.

suitable for keen walkers who are able to walk
for 6 – 7 hours in a day, with a light rucksack.
Some of the days are quite long, and the walking
feels more strenuous at altitude. Generally the

be uneven and rocky.

teahouse is a local run guesthouse, but
standards vary enormously. In popular areas such

hot water, Western food and private rooms
