This trekking route is comparatively easy- less altitudes(800m-3600m) meaning less fluctuation in temperature.Helambu was once considered a hidden, sacred domain, and its misty ridges and fertile valleys are still comparatively isolated. One of the biggest reasons why you should continue to this trekking route is because the number of trekkers is limited, but there is still a wide range of cultures and spectacular scenery. From time to time, the Langtang mountains are also visible. Passing picturesque monasteries and contouring through forests of oak, rhododendron, we fall in love with Helambu region.
