   • En route, we can catch a mesmerizing glance of Langtang Lirung towering at 7,246m asl. 
   • After that, we forge ahead across a log bridge and ascend far off, pursuing the trekking trail to the thriving grassland of Ghora Tabela (2,992m).

   • Succeeding its headway across multiple wooden cantilever bridges over several small streams, the trail finally arrives at Kyangjin Gompa (3,870m). As the name suggests, this place is celebrated for Kyangjin Gompa, an elegant monastery. In addition, this place is also home to a government-run cheese manufacturing facility.

6. Day 6: Rest Day in Kyangjin Gompa and Explore Tserko Ri (5,000m) (4/5 hours): 5km/3.1 miles

   • This very day is entirely dedicated to acclimatization and exploration of the surrounding area. As a thinner atmosphere with low levels of oxygen is found at higher elevations, we must acclimatize to the surroundings properly so that we don’t turn into a victim of AMS (Acute Mountain Sickness).
   • It is a fact to note that we can speed up the process of acclimatization via short hikes. So, we hike to Tserko Ri (5,000m), the highest point of our entire trek. The ascent lasts about 4-5 hours depending on your physical fitness. Adorned with prayer flags, the apex of this peak bestows the sublime panorama of the whole Langtang Valley along with snowy peaks of Dorje Lakpa and Shisha Pangma to the east, Langtang to the west, and Yala Peak to the north. Moreover, you can also plainly spot the Ganja La Pass.
