Yala Peak Climb in Langtang Nepal: A Complete Guide

Yala Peak is one of the most popular ‘trekking peaks’ in the Langtang Valley Region. At 5,500m in height, it presents a challenge for newcomer climbers and a great acclimatization opportunity. The expedition begins with three days of trekking along the Langtang Valley Trek before a two-day summit attempt of the peak itself. The highlight of climbing Yala Peak is catching a view of Shisapangma (8,027m) from the summit.

In this blog post, I will cover everything you need to know about the logistics of climbing Yala Peak. I’ve already created a lengthy guide for the Langtang Valley Trek and nearby viewpoints such as Kyanjin Ri and Tserko Ri .

BOOKING A GUIDE FOR YALA PEAK & LANGTANG VALLEY TREK

The Langtang Valley Trek doesn’t require a guide but it’s great to have a guide managing the logistics such as directions, tea-houses, distances, medical issues, and the overall organization. I’d say 80% of trekkers go with a guide. I did the trek with Himalayan Masters which is one of the top trekking companies when it comes to the Langtang Valley Trek.

Almost all climbers hire a guide for climbing Yala Peak so they can safely ascend the route. We climbed with local guide Galbyu as part of a complete Langtang Valley Trek & Yala Peak Climb package booked through Himalayan Masters .

The Langtang Valley Trek costs around $800 USD with Himalayan Masters as of 2022 and includes all transfers, accommodation, meals, drinks, permits, and even the hotel stay before and after the trek at a high-quality hotel. The Yala Peak Climb & Langtang Valley Trek combination package is priced at $1200 as of 2022. I honestly had a great time on this trek and I can wholeheartedly recommend Himalayan Masters.

You can use my discount code ‘ JACKSON5 ‘ for 5% off the total price of your trek with Himalayan Masters which is a pretty handy saving.

THE FULL VLOG FROM OUR YALA PEAK CLIMB

MY EXPERIENCE CLIMBING YALA PEAK

Our journey began with the Langtang Valley Trek leading us to Kyanjin Gompa. Once we settled in this iconic and immensely scenic mountain village, our Yala Peak mission was underway. I’ve written in greater detail about the Langtang Valley Trek, so in this blog post, I will focus on climbing Yala Peak once you are based in Kyanjin Gompa.

Our stay in Kyanjin Gompa ended up lengthening to a total of six nights spent in the village. We decided to acclimatize slowly by hiking Kyanjin Ri and Tserko Ri with a rest day after each day hike. We then felt ready to head up for our two-day expedition of Yala Peak. It’s possible to climb Yala Peak in one day from Kyanjin Gompa but it increases the difficulty and likelihood of altitude sickness.

We met our guide, Galbyu, who is one of the most experienced in the region. When we arrived, there had been two teams attempting the summit and neither had even reached base camp due to the snow. However, Galbyu assured us he knew the route that would work and we set off for the first ascent of the season.

Along with Galbyu, one porter carrying the sleeping system and food joined us to complete our team of four. Given that it’s only a one-night stay, we traveled pretty light. I carried my climbing boots strapped to my bag and hiked up to basecamp in regular trekking boots.

The route to Yala Kharka Basecamp begins by following the same path as Tserko Ri. We came underneath the ridge of Kyanjin Ri, crossed the glacial river, and then began up the switchbacks beneath the Tserko Ri ridge.

yala peak trek

There is an alternate ‘new’ route to Yala Peak that is more direct and heads up the Tserko Ri ridge before traversing the glacial valley. However, with deep snow, we headed to Yala Kharka Basecamp the traditional way by following the yellow signs and cutting across from the Tserko Ri ridge to make a route beneath the base of Tserko Ri.

yala peak trek

The climb to basecamp is quite comfortable because of the gradual incline. We claimed 950 meters of incline throughout the slow and steady journey but rarely had a steep ascent throughout the trek. We undulated along the flank, looking down over the old airport and up to the horizon of peaks on our right. It’s a beautiful trek and had us arriving in the early afternoon to set up camp.

yala peak trek

We stayed slightly higher than the original base camp, which was still covered in snow. A small patch of grass a few hundred meters beyond the defined camp made for a perfect campsite. After an hour or so, we were all set up with our tents and gear.

Yala Peak was engulfed by clouds for most of the day but peaked out to give a beautiful backdrop to the campsite. As you can see, our route to the summit was going to involve a lot of snow.

yala peak trek

At 4:30 am we set off on our summit push for Yala Peak. With a clear sky and Galbyu to lead the way, we were confident of our chances to have a successful climb.

yala peak trek

We knew there would be some difficulties due to the soft snow. It had been the cause of failure for the two prior groups and their summit attempts.

Our plan was to move strongly early on the hard snow. This seemed to work well for the most part but there were still a number of sections of the ascent where the snow gave way to knee-deep or slightly further. Throughout the climb did our best to stay on the ridges and find the rocky lines but sometimes crossing in the snowy valleys was inevitable.

The first half of the summit push is a zig-zag journey from one ridge to the next as we pushed up the snowy undulation. Yala Peak always seemed within reach but we never seemed to reach the base of its rocky summit structure. It can be deceptive in that way.

Our morning was blessed with beautiful clear skies and purple hues sweeping over the mountain peaks as sunrise came upon us.

What are my favorite pieces of trekking gear?

There are six pieces of gear that I simply never forget when I go trekking. These are five items that I using right now and this list gets updated every year! Here are my trekking essentials.

  • Arcteryx BETA AR Rain Jacket : This is my go-to rain jacket. It’s super light, folds down into a tiny ball, and protects brilliantly in a storm. This one never leaves my backpack.
  • Salomon X Ultra 3 Mid GTX Hiking Boots : For the best ankle support, waterproofing, and durable exterior I’m a fan of tough but light hiking boots like these Salomons for my adventures.
  • Black Diamond Head Torch : I can’t tell you how many times, I’ve arrived back from a hike unexpectedly late. I always keep this lightweight but strong headtorch in my bag for the unexpected.
  • Darn Tough Socks : These are the most comfortable hiking socks I’ve ever worn and last for years. They also have a lifetime warranty and you just send them in with a hole and they replace it no questions asked.
  • Osprey Atmos AG 65L Backpack : I’ve never had a more comfortable 65L pack than this one. I got it in the Navy Blue and have trekked with it through many a mountain.
  • Bl ack Diamond Trekking Poles : They might feel weird at first, but on a long trek with incline and decline you’ll begin to love these.
  • Grayl GeoPress Water Filter Bottle : I’ve used this for three years. It filters your water with one press and you can drink directly from it. Never buy a plastic water bottle again!

yala peak trek

There are seemingly two sections to the summit push. The first involves the vast, snowy approach and the second is the scramble and climb up the rocky formation of the pointed, Yala Peak. In the summer, this second, rocky part of the climb can be completely dry and exposed.

However, for us, the snow was still thick, soft, and deep. We managed to maneuver our way up the regular route with some basic scrambling, sideways traversing, and cautious stepping. Rockfall is the big issue here so slow, steady steps are key for the safety of yourself and your group.

yala peak trek

The final climb of Yala Peak is short but also the most exposed part of the route. It’s also getting quite high up at this point of 5,450m so the air is thin. All of the elements combine for an adrenaline-filled finale. I don’t want to overexaggerate this final ascent, but while covered in snow it seemed like the only part of the trek with any imminent danger or risk of falling.

The chimney climb to the top is at an abruptly steep angle with drops to either side. The main difficulty here is that half of the rocks are solid and half are ready to crumble and snap off with any serious pressure. A slow, measured approach is required. A solid handle on heights is necessary for this final little climb.

With no fixed rope, we safely made our way to the summit, scrambling up the narrow path. The view opened up on all sides for a panoramic scene of beautiful peaks in all directions. From the summit you can observe Langtang Lirung (7,246m), Dorje Lakpa (6,990m), Gangchempo (6,388m) and most importantly, Sishapangma (8,027m).

Our guides were busy setting up multiple lines of Tibetan prayer flags before we held a short ceremony atop the summit. With perfectly clear skies and very little wind, we could really take in the view and enjoy the scenery. This isn’t always the case atop peaks in the Himalayas.

yala peak trek

Once making it back down the slippery chimney, the descent was ‘relatively’ straightforward. Had it not been for the soft snow, that was now softening either further due to the sun, we would have made it down in no time. However, our progress was diminished as we wasted several hours battling the ever-softening snow.

Once back to Yala Kharka Basecamp we had a soup, packed up, and began the trek back to Kyanjin Gompa. The total time for our summit push was twelve hours. However, in times of better conditions and less snow, this could easily come down to 7-8 hours comfortably.

I highly recommend Yala Peak as an expedition for those looking to get some acclimatization for the upcoming season or some experience in mountaineering. It’s a cheap, easy, and fun peak to have an adventurous experience out in the Himalayas of Nepal.

GETTING TO YALA PEAK: LANGTANG VALLEY TREK DETAILS

  • Distance : 77km or 48 miles
  • Days required : 9 days including 2 days of transit to and from Kathmandu (7 days trekking)
  • Total Incline : 4000 meters
  • Total Decline : 4000 meters
  • The highest point on the trek : From Kyanjin Gompa you can reach Kyanjin Ri (4,773m) or Tserko Ri viewpoint (5,033m). Additionally, you can climb Yala Peak from Kyanjin Gompa, which has an altitude of 5,500m.
  • Difficulty : The Langtang Valley Trek is much shorter than Everest Base Camp Trek or the Annapurna Circuit although relativley similair. You will reach an altitude of 5000m, which will challenge many. Altitude sickness can be common. The route ascends quite quickly with several days having more than 1000m of altitude gain. These days of ascent are tiring and also require the body to adjust quickly. It is a good beginner trek in Nepal but not one to be taken lightly.
  • Permits : You will need a TIMS card and Park Entrance Permit, both can be purchased when entering the park.
  • Guide: A guide is not required on this trek. However, the guide manages all of the logistics, distances, directions, and tea houses for your group. I used maps.me to navigate from tea-house to tea-house and found the paths easy to follow. If it’s your first time trekking in Nepal, I would suggest having a guide.
  • Accommodation: Guest Houses, also known as Tea Houses, are available along the way where you will sleep in a comfortable bed and have access to showers (extra charge) and restaurant facilities. It was very comfortable accommodation and great after a long day of hiking. Most of the villages were Tibetan, which gave us a great insight into their unique culture.

YALA PEAK PACKING LIST

I packed pretty light and managed to wash most of my clothes each afternoon/night for the first half of the trip. In the latter stages of the trip, it was pretty cold so we weren’t sweating as much and we wore our warm gear basically nonstop while at the teahouses. There was no real need for multiple outfits.

This is just a guide and it worked quite well for me with no complaints from my set-up. You won’t need a sleeping bag as there are blankets in each guesthouse and when it got cold I just wore my down jacket to bed. This meant I didn’t have to carry a sleeping bag for the entire trek.

  • 1 pair of pants that maybe convert to shorts
  • 1 pair of shorts
  • 1 Warm or thicker pair of hiking pants
  • 1 Long sleeve quick-dry shirt
  • 1 Long-sleeve thermal shirt
  • 2 Short-sleeve t-shirts
  • 1 Thermal long underwear
  • 4 pairs of quick-dry underwear
  • 1 Lightweight down jacket
  • 1 Heavy-duty summit down jacket
  • 1 Neck Buff
  • Hiking boots
  • 6000m boots
  • Thick summit socks
  • 1 pair of warm summit socks
  • 2-3 pairs of regular socks
  • Trekking poles
  • Water filter

All of this should fit into a backpack no bigger than 50L and should be less than 20kg including climbing gear. We carried all of our own gear in except the tent, sleeping bag, and mat. These extra items were provided by our Yala Peak guide.

INSURANCE FOR THE YALA PEAK CLIMB

Nepal can be a dangerous place for trekking or hiking because the high altitude can lead to many illnesses, weakness in trekkers, and misjudgments. There is also a risk on trails for falls, avalanches, or other mishaps. Your regular travel insurance probably won’t cover you at high altitude and won’t cover a helicopter evacuation. There is a solution though .

Need extra protection?

a man hiking up a snowy mountain with skis and poles

Regular travel insurance is great but won’t cover you for high altitude hikes or for helicopter evacuation. Each year, I purchase a Global Rescue Subscription .

For less than $500 per year or $100 per expedition, you can purchase a Global Rescue subscription and be covered no matter how extreme the hike or how high the climb is.

WIFI/ELECTRICITY AVAILABILITY ON THE LANGTANG VALLEY TREK

  • Wifi: Costs anywhere from $free to $4 to use wifi at the guesthouses. Buy an NTC Sim before you go. It worked in most spots after Lama Hotel with a weak signal but we were able to send emails, watch Youtube, and message friends from Langtang and Kyanjin Gompa.
  • Electricity:  You will have to pay anywhere from $free at low elevation to $5 to charge your power banks, cameras, and phones. The key is to get a big power bank. Pay to charge it then charge everything from your power bank. My power bank lets me charge my phone and four camera batteries before it dies. Most of the places we stayed let us charge our gear for free but when it is busy they usually charge a fee as many teahouses run off gas or solar.

DRINKING WATER ON THE LANGTANG VALLEY TREK

I use the Grayl Ultralight Water Purifier and it is a game-changer for hiking in Nepal, making this super easy and cheap. The Grayl Ultralight Water Purifier removes 99.9999% of viruses of disease-causing bacteria. The best thing about it is it only takes 15 seconds and one press to purify water from any fresh water source. You don’t need to buy bottled water at every tea-house contributing to large amounts of plastic waste and costing you $4+ per day.

Along the Langtang Valley Trek, we filled up at tea-houses, rivers, and local village taps. Unlike aqua purification tablets which require you to wait 30 minutes before drinking, you can have rehydrated yourself immediately with the Grayl Ultralight Water Purifier .

GrayL Water Purifier

  • Never pay for water on the trek
  • Save 3-4 plastic water bottles a day
  • Turns any water into drinking water

BEST TIME AND SEASON FOR CLIMBING YALA PEAK

The peak season for the Langtang Valley Trek and Yala Peak climb is March to April and October to November.

During the winter from December to February, this region gets very cold and there will be snow cover in the higher parts of the trek. Many of the guesthouses actually close up for the winter and re-open in late February to March. However, it is possible to hike the Langtang Valley Trek on the fringe of the season in late February/early March and it can be quite beautiful with snow cover.

I hiked the Langtang Valley Trek in early March and it was warm during the day and got pretty cold at night. We experienced some heavy snow on Tserko Ri and Yala Peak but the trekking routes were clear. Even in the second week of March, we were the first Yala Peak climb to be successful for the year as e opened the route. The snow was still quite heavy but it changes year to year.

WHERE TO STAY IN KYANJIN GOMPA

I stayed at Mountain View Hotel while in Kyanjin Gompa. It’s one of the smaller, older guest houses and I really enjoyed it here. Unlike many of the new multi-story hotels in the village, this hotel just had two floors and a cozy dining room.

Mipsang, the owner, is one of the kindest and most caring guys we’ve met in Nepal. Say hello to him for us if you end up staying there.

At Mountain View Hotel we had had water showers, internet connection from our sim card, great food, comfortable beds and blankets, and electrical outlets available in the room.

I've finally narrowed my first trek in Nepal to Langtang Valley with the Yala Peak climb. I want to save money and so initially thought of going solo for Langtang, but it seems a guide plus someone with a tent would be require for Yala. How should I find a guide? Buying online seems more expensive, so I hope to find one in Kathmandu or closer to the trailhead. How many days total should I plan my entire trip to ensure I don't miss my flight home? Thank you for the enlightening blog on this trip.

This blog beautifully captures the allure of Yala Peak in the Langtang Valley Region. The description of the trekking experience and the strategic acclimatization opportunity at 5,500m height adds a practical perspective for both novice and seasoned climbers. The mention of the three-day trek along the Langtang Valley adds context to the journey, making it not just about reaching the summit but also enjoying the scenic beauty of the region. The two-day summit attempt builds anticipation and excitement for the climax of the expedition, and the reward is more than just personal accomplishment—the breathtaking view of Shisapangma (8,027m) from the summit elevates the entire experience. This unique aspect makes Yala Peak not just a physical challenge but a visual feast, connecting climbers with the awe-inspiring grandeur of the Himalayas. Overall, the blog effectively combines practical information with the inherent beauty and adventure of the Yala Peak trek, making it an enticing read for both adventure enthusiasts and those seeking a deeper connection with the natural wonders of the Langtang Valley.

Yala Peak is one of the popular non-technical trekking peaks located in the Langtang region of Nepal.  Yala Peak Climbing is one of Nepal’s easier peaks and is often climbed along with its neighbor – Naya Kanga Peak. From the summit of Yala Peak, one can enjoy spectacular views of Langtang Lirung, Lenpo Gang, Dorje Lakpa (6966m) and the mighty Shishapangma (8013m) (Tibet side) which is made up of three sister peaks quite similar in elevation with two pinnacles to the northwest of the main peak. From the summit, one can see  some amazing views of Tibet as well.

Yala peak is categorized as Grade easy as per the Alpine Grading system. However, this grade can vary from place to place depending on snow conditions. The peak is seldom climbed or is used as a warm-up for Naya Kanga towering on the opposite side of the  Langtang valley. If you are lucky with the weather, the summit offers grand views of  Mount Shishapangma. This peak would be a most suitable for a “first-time” climber in the Himalayas. It offers both adventure trekking and peak climbing in the Langtang region within a limited amount of time. The route involves a base camp at the end of the trail and a high camp a further half day’s trek beyond base camp. Prior climbing experience is not necessary to summit Yala peak but a reasonably good level of fitness is a must.

From Kathmandu, we begin our trip to Yala peak with a 8- hr long drive to Syabrubesi in the Langtang region. Next day we walk through a dense forest and traditional settlements via the Lama hotel, Langtang village, and Kenjin Gompa, until we reach the base camp of Yala peak. After summiting the peak we walk down to Syabrubesi and drive back to Kathmandu.

Trip Highlights

  • Explore the beauty of  Langtang National Park
  • Trek through the beautiful village of Tamang and Tibetan communities.
  • Rejoice the views of the mountains in the Langtang and surrounding mountain.
  • An adventurous climb of Yala Peak with tent camp accommodation.

Yala peak is a part of the Langtang Himal which lies just to the north of Kathmandu in the Langtang region . The base camp of Yala Peak is Kyangjin Gompa (3749m/12300 ft). Yala Peak, considered one of Nepal’s easier trekking peaks, is a fantastic beginner’s mountaineering trip. This beautiful peak affords surprising views of Shishapang 8012 m, which is the only solo mountain in Tibet with a height above 8000 m.

The climb is easy and suited for anyone with trekking experience. We start in Syabrubesi after a 5-hour drive from Kathmandu and spend five days hiking up the beautiful Langtang valley to Kyanjin Gompa at 3800 m. Kyanjin Gompa is situated below Langtang Lirung (7246 m) and we spend three days acclimatizing by taking day-hikes in the spectacular surroundings. The last 400 m is on ice so we will be using crampons, ice axe and rope.

Trip Itinerary

Day 1 arrival in kathmandu (1,370metres).

  • Upon arrival at Tribhuwan Intl Airport in Kathmandu, a representative from Vista Trek waiting, well in time, to receive you, shall welcome you to this land of the towering Himalayas. Once reaching your hotel in a car from the airport, all you need to do is check in and enjoy the refreshment served.
  • We then visit the Vista Trek office for discussion on trekking, introduction to the guide and porter and settlement of dues if any. Since you often still have some time left for a walk around Thamel, you can do so if you please.

DAY 2 Kathmandu to Syabrubeshi (1,500 metres; about 7-hour drive)

  • We head off to Syaprubeshi on a local deluxe bus early morning. This almost 6-7-hour journey starts out of Kathmandu through a beautiful hilly forest area on PasangLhamu Highway to the North-West.
  • Stopping for breakfast and lunch on the way, the ride comes to its end once we reach Syaprubeshi. With the Botekoshi River flowing from the North-West to the South-East, the settlement sits on the confluence of Bhotekoshi River and Langtang River and now has spread on all three open spaces. The place is increasingly becoming a tourist as well as an economic hub in the area. We spend our night here.

DAY 3 Syaprubeshi to Rimche (2,350metres; about 5 ½ hour walk)

  • After breakfast, we walk for around three hours to Bamboo. The route first crosses BhoteKoshi, then almost immediately LangtangKhola. Along the banks of the latter, the relatively flat trail with short uphills at places reaches Bamboo, with a few teahouses next to the River.
  • After lunch, the way up to Rimché is mostly an exhausting uphill all the way. Rimché, with two guest houses, is our stopover for the night and also offers a view of the Ganesh HImal.

DAY 4 Rimche to Chyamki (3,230 metres; around 5-hour walk)

  • After breakfast, we walk for nearly three and a half hours to GhodaTabela for lunch. The first ten minutesbrings us to Lama Hotel. From here on, it's mostly a gradual uphill with some steep climbs. When walking through this part of the trail, what should attract many is the change in vegetation as we walk towards the destination. With the Langtang River flowing just a minute or two to the right all the way, we start the walk through a Subtropical forest that changes to Temperate to Sub-alpine and then to bushes with sporadic trees, indicating that the tree line in this part of the Himalayas is not very far. GhodaTabela, with two teahouses, is where we stop for lunch.
  • After lunch, we start our trek up a gradual uphill, with the whole Langtang Range including LangtangHimal and LangtangLirung, the highest in the Range standing tall at 7,245 metres, to the front-left, the Naya Kang Peak to the front-right, GosaikundaHimal to the right, LangtangHimal to the left, towards the mouth of the LangtangKhola. Chyamki, with three guest houses operating currently, is our stopover for the night.

DAY 5 Chyamki to KyanjinGompa (3,830 metres; around 3 ½ -hour walk)

  • Our walk to KenjinGompa, after breakfast, is on a gradual uphill that continues till the end and with the direction of the LangtangKhola gradually moving from the front-left to the back-left. KyanjinGompa, a village in the valley surrounded by the soaring Himalayas, is a place where LangtangKhola, with its origins from the Langtang Glacier, flows from its two sides. This village, with around twenty households, is where we stop for our lunch, dinner and the night. The remaining time today can be spent exploring the valley.

DAY 6 A hike to Tsergori (4,984 metres; about 8-hour walk)

  • After an early breakfast, we pack our lunch and head off to Tsergori. Up a steep uphill for almost five hours, the tired legs, now that they can rest for the next half an hour, don't seem to mind the excitement the eyes receive once atop the vantage point. On display, the 360 degree view, after all, has Yala Peak, Morimoto Peak, Kyunggari as well as Mt SishaPangba in Tibet to the North, Mt Ganchenpo, Mt Urkinmang and Mt DorjeLakpa to the East, PangenDopku Peak and Naya Kang Peak to the South and LangtangLirung, Mt Kinshung and Mt Yubra as well as Langtang Glacier and KyanjinGompa Village to the West.
  • After spending some time, we walk back downhill to KyanjinGompa for the night.

DAY 7 Trek to Yala Peak Base Camp.

  • We take an early breakfast, we start our trip to Yala base camp. It will be considerable easy walk for about couple of hours and then gradual climb to Yala Base Camp.
  • After arriving in the basecamp, we set up or tent for overnight and make some training for next day climbing to Yala Peak.The views are still amazing as Mt. Gyanchenpo appearing even closer than we had from Kyanjin Gompla.
  • Spend the night in Yala Base camp in tent.

DAY 8 Climb to Yala Peak and back to Kyanjin Ri.

  • This is our most challening day of our trip. We start around 3/ 4 o''clock early in the morning taking hot tea or soup , It will be all the way steep climbing to the top. Our aim is to reach make summit before sunrise. Climbing trail is mostly covered by the snow but no problem with crampons. We have to set up ropes for few hundred meters on the way which also involves ruck climbing but relatively easy for the experience climber.
  • Once we make the top of Yala Peak, we have 360 degree view along with many mountains from Tibet side including 8000 meter high Mt. Shisapangma.
  • After capturing our moment at the top of Yala Peak, we then descend all the way down to Yala base camp and same day walk all the way down to kayngin Gompa for overnight Stay .

DAY 9 KyanjinGompa to Rimche (about 6-hour walk)

  • After breakfast, we retrace our steps back, downhill mostly this time around, for roughly four hours to GodaTabela for lunch.
  • We continue our walk after lunch. After another two hours, we come to Rimche for the night.

DAY 10 Rimche to Syabrubeshi (about 5 ½ hour walk)

  • After breakfast, we start our walk to Sherpa Gaon. Around half an hour before Sherpa Gaon, the narrow trail, carved along a hillside, asks for exercising caution. To the right is the slopes of the same hill with the hilltop not visible. The left, however, is not as safe. Drawn by this inviting grassy slope- green, yellow or brown, the wish to walk on and off the trail would be unwise since skillfully disguising the danger of a slip that could land anyone directly in Langtang River roughly 700 metres below is a real possibility.
  • With Mt Manaslu and Ganesh Himal to the South East and some peaks in Tibet to the North-East, we have our lunch in Sherpa Gaon.
  • After leaving Sherpa Gaon, we reach Syphrubeshi on a steep downhill in the next two hours or so. We spend the night here.

DAY 11 Syphrubeshi to Kathmandu

  • We head off to Kathmandu on a local deluxe bus early morning. This almost seven-hour journey comes to its stop in Kathmandu with guaranteed two stops for breakfast and lunch.
  • Back in Kathmandu, and only your WILL shall dictate your involvement or indulgence as you may please since our arrival is in the afternoon. In the evening, however, please allow us the pleasure of your company during the fare-well dinner organized by Vista Trek.
  • Spend the night in a hotel.

DAY 12 Departure from Nepal

  • If you have a morning flight, we leave for Tribhuwan Intl Airport early morning in a car arranged by the office.
  • If your flight is in the late afternoon or evening, only your WILL shall dictate your involvement or indulgence as you may please before leaving for Tribhuwan Intl Airport in the vehicle.

About yala peak climbing.

Yala Peak climbing is a straightforward climb with stunning scenery and an impeccable introduction to Himalayan mountain climbing. Compared to other popular Trekking Peaks such as Mera Peak , Island Peak , etc., Yala Peak (5500m) is the smallest of all the trekking peaks in Nepal and can be done in the shortest time while still at a pace to allow proper acclimatization. Yala Peak is not technically demanding, but it is considerably high at 5500 meters, where you will feel the lower levels of oxygen and the extra energy being used up, and you are, of course, open to the elements. You need to take care of your hydration and maintain a slow, manageable pace.

Most of the villages in this region are admirably graced and adorned with flapping colorful prayer flags, chortens and pristine monasteries as the villages in this region are highly influenced by Tibetan Buddhism.

safe introductory peak for novice mountaineers surreal panoramic view of Langtang Lirung, Yansa Tsenji, Shishapangma, Morimoto, Langshisa Ri and other snowy peaks wonderful trek through the Langtang Valley trek with our experienced local Sherpa guides experience Tibetan-like culture and traditions

Yala Peak: Climbing Route

Our Yala Peak Climbing trail begins from Syabru Besi (1505m), after an amazing 9-hour (approx.) drive from Kathmandu that follows the twisting Trishuli River gorge. The trek starts in sub-tropical forests, and as soon as it climbs higher into the Langtang Valley , the forests grow thinner, and the valley widens.

yala peak trek

Moving a little higher, we reach Kyanjing Gompa (3740m), named after an ancient monastery. There are many chortens along the trail, and it is our practice to walk from the left-hand side. We spend an extra day at Kyanjing Gompa to acclimatize, allowing us enough time to explore the Langshisa glacier or climb to Kyanjin Ri (4773m) for more amazing views of the snow-capped mountains. We can visit monasteries and cheese factory in nearby. After spending an extra night at Kyanjing Gompa for proper acclimatization, we head to Yala Peak Base camp.

The trail to Yala Peak Base Camp (4800m) is relatively easy, and there are beautiful views on the way. The route to Yala Kharka Basecamp begins following the same path as Tserko Ri. We come underneath the ridge of Kyanjin Ri, cross the glacial river, and begin up the switchbacks beneath the Tserko Ri ridge.

Yala Peak Climbing Summit Day

Congratulations on your Summit Day !!

Just above base camp, we can see the rocky south face of Yala Peak and the Yala Glacier on the southwest face. From Base Camp, we pitch for the summit, which will be more difficult if there is snow. The first half of the summit push is a zigzag journey from one ridge to the next as we push up the snowy wave. Yala Peak always seems within reach, but it takes considerable time to reach the base of its rocky summit structure. It can be deceptive in that way.

yala peak trek

Moving forward, the trail ascends to a rocky ridge and then drops and ascends steeply on boulders. There is a flat area before the final 40m vertical snow/rock cliff leading to the narrow summit ridge. The view from the summit is impressive as we eyewitness the magical Mt. Langtang Lirung (7234m) to the west, Yansa Tsenji (6500m), a mountain on the Nepal-Tibet border, Morimoto Peak (6750m), Langshisa Ri (6800m) to the east and the only 8000er mountain, Mount Shishapangma (8013m).

Best Time to Climb Yala Peak Climbing

Yala Peak Climbing is doable throughout the year. But the best seasons for the Yala Peak Climbing are spring (March-May) and autumn (September-November). These months offer clear skies, sunny days, and stable weather, ideal trekking and climbing conditions. The views of the mountains are also spectacular during these seasons.

yala peak trek

Yala Peak Climbing can also be done in the summer months (June-August), but the weather can be more unpredictable. There is a higher chance of rain and fog during this time, which can obscure the views of the mountains.

The winter months (December-February) are the coldest time of year in the Langtang region, but they can also be a great time to trek if you prepare appropriately. The trails are less crowded during this time, and you can see the mountains with fewer clouds. You need to be careful with your packing list, as weather conditions can get severe during the winter season.

Yala Peak Climbing Difficulty Level

Yala Peak, at an elevation of 5550 meters, is considered one of the most accessible peaks to summit in Nepal. Any physically fit person can safely summit Yala Peak. The route to the top is mostly scrambling on the rocky path, and the final ascent to the summit is pretty straightforward.

yala peak trek

Yala Peak Climbing is very doable for every enthusiast trekker / Climbers who dreams of eye witnessing some of the most surreal mountains of Nepal and Tibet, including Mount. Shishapangma, even if it's their first time in the Himalayas of Nepal. Make sure to do adequate homework (physical fitness & training programs) before ticking off the Yala Peak Climbing Trip from your Bucket list. The trip grade is moderately challenging, but one with enough hiking/walking experience can do this trek as the trail is 100% safe, and there are no technical elements to the journey.

Yala Peak climbing begins from Kyanjin Gompa, where the trail then climbs steeply up the hill to Tsergo RI and follows halfway. From here, the trail separates off to the left, which still climbs up and takes you to the immensely beautiful pasture (Base Camp), where we set our tent for staying overnight. The next day, the adventure starts early in the morning when the trail traverses uphill through the rough and rocky trail to the summit of our final destination, Yala Peak (5500m) summit.

Permits Required for Yala Peak Climbing

Yala Peak is one of the free peaks, so a climbing permit is not needed for the climb. Still, you will need the following permits:

  • Langtang National Park Permit, which we will take from the Army check post
  • TIMS permit (required for the trekkers to trek into the Langtang Area).

Travel Insurance for Yala Peak Climbing

It is strongly recommended to be sufficiently protected when you go into nature for trekking and climbing. Not just Yala Peak Climbing, but you need travel insurance to do any trekking or climbing in the Himalayas of Nepal. Before beginning the Yala Peak Climb, make sure your insurance covers high-altitude evacuations, as accidents may happen, and people need to be evacuated if they experience severe altitude sickness or other unforeseen contingencies during your trek. We, the Annapurna Foothills, strongly recommend our valuable guests doing treks at high altitudes, Peak climbing, etc., have sufficient insurance coverage. Make sure you have precise travel insurance before you leave home. Travel insurance that covers emergency evacuation, injury, lost baggage, liability, and medical treatment is recommended. Helicopter evacuation is our final emergency option, and we do recommend you have one in your insurance, as it is the only means of transport in the Nepal Himalayas.

The insurance must cover all the activities you undertake during your Nepal stay. There is a specific procedure to follow whilst calling for emergency evacuation. First, we will contact the insurance company hotline and get approval with your insurance, and only then helicopters are sent to the concerned call location. We can organize the appropriate medical response based on your policy.

Food, Water and Accommodation during Yala Peak Climbing

yala peak trek

Meals in the Himalayas (Langtang Region) mainly consist of a diet rich in carbohydrates because our bodies do not process fat and protein efficiently at higher elevations. Three hot and delicious daily meals will be served (breakfast, lunch, and dinner) with tea, coffee and boiled water. Meals (Dinner and Breakfast) are consumed at the teahouses and lodges where you stay overnight, and lunch will be eaten somewhere on the way to the next destination at a lodge or a teahouse. Typical Nepalese meal (Rice, Daal, and Curry) is available throughout the Langtang region; which is considered the perfect combo of Nepalese meal as it is fresh, healthy and rich in calories making it the finest choice to choose from the Menu along the trekking trail en route to Yala Peak. We recommend keeping it vegetarian at higher elevations to avoid the dangers of meat gone wrong. However, you can enjoy meat with your lunch or dinner at lower elevations as they are fresh and farmed in most lodges. The food will be simple yet energetic enough to nourish your body for the next day’s trek. Beverages like beer, soft drinks, bakery, tea and coffee are available throughout the trail and its price increases gradually with the rise in altitude.

We suggest you drink boiled water or bring water purification tablets/liquid to purify the normal water available in the guest houses. There is a small fee for boiled water at guesthouses. Although mineral water is available in most places, there is no provision to dispose of plastic bottles properly, so we encourage our guests to do what they can to protect the environment and promote eco-tourism in one way or another.

Accommodation

yala peak trek

Accommodation is included in the cost of your package. Annapurna Foothills Treks takes great care to arrange the most comfortable accommodation possible throughout your stay. During the trek, the nights will be spent in clean, comfortable tea houses with plenty of character and good food. The simple rooms usually have two narrow beds. The family-run lodges are a great place to get to know the Nepalese people. In Nepalese culture, a guest is equal to god, and undoubtedly this has become even more of a reality since the tourism industry has improved their earning opportunities. You will be made very welcome!

Yala Peak Climbing Packing List

“There's no such thing as bad weather, only unsuitable clothing.” - Alfred Wainwright.

Are you planning your dream trip to the Himalayas of Nepal?

A strategic way of packing will be keeping in mind that your stuff will be packed in two bags. One will be the daypack that you carry every day on your trek. Pack your daypack as lightly as possible by carrying only the essentials to relish your moments in the wilderness freely. Pack anything you may need each day during your hike in your daypack. Another bag will be your duffle bag carried by your Porter from the beginning of your trek till the end.

Here is the link complete packing checklist for Yala Peak Climbing or any other similar peaks climbing trip in the fascinating Himalayas of Nepal.

Yala Peak Climbing is a beginner friendly trek north of Kathmandu Valley. This expedition entails strolling through the deep forest and many traditional towns in the Langtang area. It is one of Nepal’s simplest peak climbs requiring no technical expertise.

The trip to Yala Peak begins with a drive from Kathmandu to Syabru Besi. After staying a day here, trekking to Langtang begins following a trek to Kyanjin, where you can enjoy the panoramic views of ice-capped Himalayan peaks. The walk continues to the base camp, where you will stay for acclimatization. Then, finally, you will hike up to the Yala Peak.

Unlike the more frequented destinations of Everest or Annapurna , Langtang Valley remains a relatively undiscovered gem, attracting fewer tourists. Stretching up to the Tibet border, this valley provides a unique opportunity to immerse oneself in a culture strongly shaped by Tibetan heritage and geographical proximity.

To the north, Langtang Valley is framed by peaks soaring to approximately 6500m, while a smaller range of 5000-6000m graces the southern horizon, with Yala Peak situated within the northern expanse.

Trip Highlights

  • Drive across the scenic countryside to SyabruBesi.
  • Explore the pristine culture and lifestyle of the Tamang ethnic group.
  • A look into highland Buddhism and a monastery.
  • Enjoy the breathtaking view of the Himalayan peaks in the Langtang area, including Shishapangma, Ganchempo, Naya Kang, Dorje Lakpa, Ganja-la Peak, and Langshisha RI.
  • Trekking through the Langtang Valley is like trekking through a valley of glaciers.Immerse in the amazing views of valleys, alpine forests, glaciers, and rivers.
  • Get a glimpse of many rare animals like the Red Panda, Snow Leopard, Himalayan Monal, and Black Bear at the Langtang National Park.
  • Discover the monasteries, stupas, and Buddhist connection in the historic Kyanjin Gompa settlement.
  • If you plan to do a higher peak expedition or climbing trip soon after, this is the best acclimatization trip.
  • Passing through vibrant villages, jungles and rhododendron forests with the stunning Annapurna range always in sight
  • Get first-hand experience of Tibetan Buddhist culture at monasteries and shrines along the way, or by engaging with the local Tamang, Sherpa, or Tibetan people.
  • Taste some must-try local dishes such as yak cheese, Tibetan tea (black tea with yak butter) and sea buckthorn juice, to name a few.
  • Support local families who had to rebuild their lives and livelihoods after the 2015 earthquake, which hugely impacted Langtang village.

Yala Peak Climbing Itinerary

  Autumn and Spring are considered the finest seasons for Yala Peak expedition since the weather and temperature in the Langtang region are highly suitable during these seasons. 

As autumn is the post-monsoon season and spring is the pre-monsoon season, you may anticipate the least rainfall during this time. 

Food and Accommodation at Yala Peak Climbing

Accommodation on the trek, both before and after the climb of Yala Peak, is in nice lodges maintained by local families, unless traveler mention a preference for tents. Each lodge features a central communal area with a stove, while the bedrooms are unheated and have two beds and mattresses, as well as a blanket and pillows. You must bring your own sleeping bag. The showers are normally powered by gas, and some employ the iconic ‘drop’ toilets, but most now have flush systems.

The food served on the trek is of excellent quality and a blend of native Nepali and western dishes. Local Dal Bhat or Momos are wonderful choices, while burgers and chips are also popular. Everything from beer to batteries to Mars bars is available in the trail’s lodges and small businesses.

What is permit cost for Yala Peak?

While Yala Peak Climbing used to only be permitted with permission, the Nepal Mountaineering Association (NMA) has removed it from the list because it is just 5732 meters high. It just requires a Langtang National Park entrance permit, which costs NPR 3000 per person, and a group TIMS Card, which costs NPR 2000  per person and can only be purchased from a licensed trekking company.

Climber with chortens at Yala Peak

Yala Peak Climbing

Yala peak climbing overview.

Yala Peak is the smallest and easily accessible trekking peak in Nepal. Located in the serene ambiance of the Langtang region, the peak is the best introductory climbing peak in Nepal. Some inexperienced trekkers might find the Yala Peak Climbing a bit tricky, but normally it is achievable by all types of trekkers.

In contrast to that of other popular Everest and Annapurna region, the Yala Peak trails in the Langtang region receives few climbers. Therefore a trek on the meandering trails of Yala Peak gives you the awesome experience of being up in the rustic Himalayan Villages. Undoubtedly incredible mountain vistas of Langtang Lirung, Tserko Ri, Dorje Lakpa, and many others are there to astonish you throughout your journey. But what makes this trip more appealing is the Langtang region’s proximity to Tibet. The climb to the Yala Peak not only greets you with the Nepalese Himalayas but also gives you ample opportunity to witness the Tibetan peak of Shishapangma and many other peaks.

In addition, Tibetan-influenced culture and tradition are widely noticeable throughout the journey. Inhabited by the ethnic people of Tamang, and Sherpa’s, their hospitality is something that you would love to reminisce about for your entire life. Several other monasteries, including the popular Kyangin Gompa monastery, are some of the attractions of the Langtang Valley trek and so is the Yala Peak Climb. Further, the local cheese factory at the Kyangin Gompa is no less than any other wonder. It draws the attention of almost all the trekkers visiting this region.

Merely your walk inside the woods of Langtang National Park is enough to soak you up in the Himalayan beauty of Nepal. Diverse species of rhododendrons and other floral plants always lift your excitement level during the trek. The chirping sound of Himalayan Pheasant and other bird species in the park area never lets you feel down. Moreover, the glimpse of musk deer, snow leopards, red panda, and several other animals is enough to provide you with the experience of wilderness.

As I have already mentioned, anyone with a normal fitness level can opt for the Yala Peak Climbing. Thus, if you have the urge for peak climbing in Nepal without having any second thoughts book this 14-Day Yala Peak Climb Itinerary with us.

Within a day you can conquer the peak summit and return to the Base Camp. Retracing the route back up to Syabrubesi you can catch the jeep back to Kathmandu from there.

Yala Peak Climb Extensions:

Depending upon your desire and time availability you can extend or shorten your Yala Peak Climbing itinerary. If you do have not much spare time to spend on the trekking trails of the Langtang region of Nepal, Yala Peak Climb alone is sufficient to experience the wilderness of the Nepalese Himalayas. However, if you are yearning more, you can extend your Yala peak trek with the Gosainkunda Lake trek. Furthermore, Yala Peak Climb with Gosainkunda Lake and Helambu Valley is also absolutely possible if you are up for it.

Trekkers with extra days in Nepal can terminate their trekking journey at the Sundarijal. Further, the gateway of the Gosainkunda trek, Sundarijal can also be your trek start point.

Experience required for Yala Peak Climbing:

Compared to other peak climbing like Island Peak Climbing and Lobuche Peak Climbing, Yala Peak Climbing is doable for almost everyone. With a good level of fitness, even an amateur climber can conquer the peak easily. Having previous training and climbing experience always comes in handy if you have one. However, if you do not have one, no worries, your will and determination to conquer the Peak are enough to endure every small and big challenge that might come your way to interrupt your journey.

During the climb itself, your guide will give you the required climbing training.

Accommodation and Food on the Trail of Yala Peak Climb:

Being traversed by a few trekkers, the accommodation on the trails of the Yala Peak Climbing route is quite basic. Unless you opt to stay under the tented camps, during the trek you can stay on the lodges run by the locals. Normally these lodges have one spacious dining hall. The room here is equipped with twin beds, a mattress, pillows, bedsheets, and blankets. Most of the lodges serve you with a hot shower facility, and toilets are mostly of the squat style.

Though you might not find a diverse variety on the food menu, whatever is available is guaranteed to have good quality. Local Nepali food and some Western cuisines are served at every lodge. During lunch and dinner time, instead of wasting your money on western dishes, you better give a try to the Local Nepali Dal Bhat set. Within at least cost, the Dal Bhat set helps you increase your stamina a lot.

Best time for Yala Peak Climbing:

Autumn and Spring seasons are considered the best season for climbing Yala Peak. The moderate temperature and stable weather during this season let you grab most of the wonderful aspects of the Langtang region more fascinatingly. The Autumn months of September, October, and November are there to mesmerize you with the colorful dry leaves all over the trails. Speaking of the Spring, a trek during March, April, and May lets you enjoy the rejuvenating walk amidst the blooming rhododendron forest.

After the cold winter season when you step on the trekking trails of Yala Peak, the warm sun brings up a separate charm to your face. Though the nights are still quite chilly at the higher altitudes, the day’s trek lets you absorb the warm sunshine. On top of that, the ridiculously beautiful Himalayan vistas and surrounding atmosphere make your Autumn or Spring trek rewarding and reminiscing.

Yala Peak Climbing Permits:

Langtang National Park entry permit and Trekkers Information Management System(TIMS) card are the only permits that are required for Yala Peak Climbing in Nepal.

Is there a risk of altitude sickness during the Yala Peak Climb?

As you have to trek above 2500m during the Yala Peak Climb, there is always a chance of getting caught by altitude sickness. Therefore, during the trek, you have to keep yourself hydrated. Taking enough food and proper sleep is also important. Further, maintaining a slow pace and proper acclimatization rest help you a lot to deal with altitude sickness at higher altitudes.

Gears required during the climb to Yala Peak:

Normally the climbing guides carry most of the climbing gear like crampons, ice axes, and ropes. The list of some other necessary gear that you need to include in your backpack is given below.

Before making a stroll around the beautiful local monastery near Langtang village we will pass Ghodatabela. Inhabited with the benevolent Tamang people, Langtang village is one of the attractions of the entire Langtang region.

Day 6: Trek from Langtang Village to Kyangjin Gompa

Walking Hours: 5 To 6 Hour Trek

Max. Altitude: 3555M

Leaving the Langtang village behind, we will trek through tiny settlements of Tamang and Sherpa people. Further trekking from the tiny settlements, we will cross the beautiful yak pastures on our way. Savouring the beauty of ravishing Lantang Lirung, Ganchempo and many other mountains, we will make Kyangjin Gompa our today’s last stop.

Government operated cheese factory and the ancient old monastery at the Kyangjin Gompa draws the attention of many trekkers. Like many other trekkers, we too spend our precious time visiting these wonders of the Kyangjin Gompa.

Day 7: Rest Day

Walking Hours: 6 Hour Trek

This day is separated for the acclimatization purpose. Instead of just sitting in the hotel room, we will join the side hikes around the Kyangjin Gompa. Among many side hike options, a hike to the Kyangjin Ri is one of the best options. To cope up with the increasing altitude, this short hike helps up a lot.

Located at an elevation of 4600m Kyangjin Ri is one of the best vantage points of the Langtang Valley Trek. The climb to the Kyangjin Ri top is quite difficult, awe-inspiring views of Langtang Valley and snowcapped mountains pay off all your effort and hardship. After spending some time at the Ri top we will return to the Kyangjin Village. At the village, we will visit the Cheese factory to savour the taste of luscious organic Yak’s Cheese. Spend the night at Kyangjin Gompa.

Day 8: Kyangjin Gompa to Yala Peak Base Camp

Accommodation: Tented Camp

Max. Altitude: 4600M

Following the rocky glacier trail, we will walk for around 6 hours to reach the Yala Peak Base Camp. As you reach the base camp location, the views of Naya Kang, Ganchenpo, Tserko Ri and Yala Peak surrounds you from all around.

After spending some relaxing time at the base camp, our climbing guides will give us basic training on how to use the climbing gears. They teach us to make the best use of the climbing gears like ropes, crampons, harness and many others.

Day 9: Trek to the Yala Peak Summit and return back to the Base Camp

Walking Hours: 9 Hours Climbing

Max. Altitude: 5500M

It is the most awaited adventure day of our entire journey. Today we will begin our early morning climb towards the summit of Yala Peak. Being the final section of the Yala Peak Climb, the climb is quite tricky. Thus with proper care, we will cross the gorges. While commencing the climb, what you should not forget is that, a headlight. In this section of the climb, along with other climbing gears what you need the most is a headlight. With the help of the headlight and other climbing gears, we will reach the peak summit.

Once you reach the Yala Peak summit, you will get spellbound by the glittering views of Mt Sishapangma, Mt. Dorje Lakpa, Ganchenpo, Naya Kang, Tserko Ri, Langtang Lirung and many other mountains. Besides the mountains, what seems more appealing is the incredible sunrise views over these mountains.

Capturing all these memories on our camera we will retrace the route back to the Yala Peak Base Camp.

Day 10: Retrace the route back to Kyangjin Gompa from the Yala Peak Base Camp

Keeping all the beautiful memories in camera and mind we will descend to the Kyangjin Gompa. Appreciating the heart-pounding hospitality of ethnic Tamang and Sherpa people we will spend the night at Kyangjin Gompa. Depending upon your preference, we can also stop at the Langtang village for a night stay.

Yala peak climbing

A thrilling Adventure

I had the opportunity to climb Yala Peak with Boundless Adventure with my cousin. It turned into an adventure we will cherish for an entire life. The trek took us through magnificent vista, from rhododendron forests to picturesque villages with prayer flags and views of snow-capped peaks. Boundless Adventure’s expertise and professionalism have been apparent from the beginning of our adventure. The team knew the area, ensured our safety, and provided insights into the local tradition. The highlight of the trek was reaching the summit, which gave panoramic perspectives. The trek also offers cultural immersion, interacting with locals in traditional mountain villages and recognizing Himalayan wildlife—a well-encouraged destination for top mountaineering.

Profile

Mind-Blowing journey at nature's beauty

Our trip to climb Yala Peak with Boundless Adventure was mind-blowing. We experienced the extraordinary beauty of nature and Boundless Adventure’s exceptional service. Our journey through the Langtang Valley of Nepal was excellent. Each walk offered breathtaking views of snow-capped peaks, lush forests, and picturesque villages.

On the seventh day, we got into the summit of the Yala Peak. The climb was not easy, but the Boundless team’s concern for our safety and enjoyable journey made us complete our climb smoothly. The climb was worth it, with unparalleled views and a sense of accomplishment. Our team highly recommends Boundless Adventure to anyone looking for the best partner for their adventure in Nepal.

Review from Google

Pleasant Expedition at Langtang valley

I completed the Yala Peak climbing expedition this April with my three friends. The expedition was pleasant, passing through stunning landscapes with mountain views. The ascent to the summit at 5,732 meters was an exciting and adventurous adventure.

However, we felt a sense of accomplishment as we stood at Yala Peak and saw spectacular views of the Langtang range. Boundless Adventure’s professional guide and porters provided comprehensive support at each point of our journey. The logistics, from lodging to food, had been properly organized. One memorable moment of our climb was catching the dawn from Yala Peak’s summit. We plan to climb Island Peak in the coming autumn with a group from Boundless.

A brief overview of Yala Peak Climbing

Yala Peak Climbing is the best 10-day adventure trip in naturally blessed Langtang Valley in Langtang National Park. It is so popular but still not that technical and less difficult in comparison to other trekking peaks in Nepal. Yala Peak is a small mountain in the Langtang area of Nepal. It is considered a trekking peak by the Nepal Mountaineering Association (NMA)  and is a somewhat simple, non-technical climb. The summit is so well-liked for being a superb vantage point from which Shishapangma (8013m), the highest mountain wholly in Tibet, and the lowest of the 14 eight-thousanders, can be seen. Yala Peak Climbing trip combined with Langtang Valley Trekking in Nepal is the best choice for those who wish to stand on a Himalayan summit but have a limited amount of time and budget available. This trip rewards the visitors with a thrilling venture of trekking and climbing in the Langtang region way beyond simply hiking. The Yala peak climb is non-technical. Prior climbing experience is not required however outfit experience and a reasonably good level of physical fitness and stamina are necessary. Confirming the climbing equipment with Wilderness Excursion and discovering the sights and sounds of historical Kathmandu valley we begin our voyage to Yala Peak climbing with a half-day drive to Syburbesi from Kathmandu. Hiking through the lush green forest and beautiful hamlets of Domen, Bamboo, Lama Hotel, Langtang village, and Kenjin Gompa, we arrive at the wonderful base camp of Yala Peak. We will also witness the damage done by the April 2015 earthquake in Nepal mainly in the Langtang village which washed away the beautiful village. You will have stunning views of many beautiful mountains – Lantang Lirung (7246m), Lenpo Gang 7083m), Dorje Lakpa (6990m), Gangchenpo (6388m) and mighty Shishapangma (8027m) on the Tibetan side. Thus this 2 week long and one-of-a-kind peak climbing with Wilderness Excursion in Nepal is one of the best selections to have the climbing experience in a short time duration in the Himalayas.

What is the price of the Yala Peak climbing permit?

Yala Peak Climbing doesn’t require any climbing permit though it used to be only permitted with permits, now, the Nepal Mountaineering Association  (NMA) has taken off the list as it is only 5500 meters. It needs only a Langtang National Park entrance permit costs NPR 3000 per person and a group TIMS Card is a must that costs NPR 2000 (USD 20) per head only obtained through a registered trekking company. So enjoy the trekking peak in Nepal without a permit.

How long does it take to climb Yala Peak? 

This is probably the shortest and easiest Peak Climbing expedition in Nepal. Our Standard itinerary is designed for 10 days with one extra day for acclimatization at Kyanjin Gompa which can be utilized by taking an excursion to Tsergo Ri or Kyanjin Ri; the lower day hiking peak. Our sensibly designed 10-day itinerary is made sure for relaxing and comfortable trekking for reasonably fit and experienced trekkers. The itinerary varies depending on your fitness level and the time you want to spend or combine this trek with another side trek in the area.

Things to do upon your Arrival at Kathmandu before your trek:

Upon your arrival at Kathmandu’s Tribhuvan International Airport, a representative from our company will be there to extend a warm welcome to you. You will then be swiftly transferred to the hotel in a private vehicle. Upon reaching the hotel, you can check in and take some time to relax. At the scheduled time, our company owner, Hom Rana, will personally greet you for the trip briefing on the Everest Base Camp Trek, providing comprehensive details.

During this briefing, we will carefully go through your packing list to ensure you have everything you need. Additionally, you will have the opportunity to meet your trek guide and receive essential items such as the company duffel bag, t-shirt, cap, and trekking map.

In the evening, we cordially invite you to join us for a welcome dinner hosted by the company. Following this, the next day you will embark on a flight to Lukla to commence your trekking adventure.

Lukla Flight Information (Kathmandu & Ramechhap):

We would like to update you on important changes regarding Lukla flights during peak trek seasons (March, April, May, October, and November). Due to increased air traffic in these months, Lukla flights will be operated from Manthali airport in Ramechhap instead of Kathmandu. However, during non-peak seasons (January, February, June, July, August, September, and December), Lukla flights will continue to operate from Kathmandu.

If you are catching a Lukla flight from Ramechhap, please be advised that you need to depart from Kathmandu early in the morning, around 1:30 to 2:00 AM. The journey from Kathmandu to Ramechhap takes approximately 4-5 hours. Your guide will arrive at your hotel at the specified time to pick you up and drive you to Ramechhap.

It’s important to note that Lukla flights may face disruptions due to factors such as bad weather, airline technical problems, and other unforeseen circumstances. Therefore, we recommend planning for an additional 2-3 days as a contingency to accommodate potential delays.

We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in adapting to these changes for a smoother and more enjoyable trekking experience.

Tea House Meals During EBC Trek:

Nepal Peak Adventure consistently provides our clients with top-notch lodging and dining options. Our Everest Base Camp package includes three full-board meals: breakfast, lunch, and dinner, complemented by tea or coffee at each meal. Throughout the trek, you can choose your meals from the teahouse menu, which offers a variety of local and international dishes, ensuring you maintain energy levels with nourishing meals.

You have the flexibility to opt for Nepali, Western, or Indian cuisines during the entire trek, and the cost of food is covered in the package, allowing you to relish your preferred meals. We highly recommend trying Dal and Bhaat, a typical Nepali dish. For day hikes, it’s beneficial to carry energy bars or dried fruits and stay well-hydrated.

For health reasons, we strongly advise against consuming non-vegetarian items throughout the trek.

Typical Day during EBC trek:

Your trek officially begins upon your arrival in Lukla. Each day, a typical routine commences with a substantial breakfast served between 6:30 to 7:30 AM. After breakfast, you set out on your trek, progressing toward the planned destinations. Before starting the trek, it is advisable to pack all the essentials for the day hike in your backpack, while your duffel bags will be carried by the porter at their own pace.

Throughout the journey, you will make regular stops for short breaks to hydrate, have snacks, or capture photos. Typically, after three to four hours of trekking, a lunch break is scheduled along the route.

Upon reaching the designated overnight stay, you have the opportunity to relax or explore the surrounding area. In the evening, around 6 to 7 PM, dinner will be served. Following dinner, you can engage in conversation with your guide, who will also brief you about the plan for the next day. Subsequently, you can choose to retire to bed or spend your time playing cards, reading books, or simply relaxing at your own pace.

About Wifi, Charging, and Electricity Facility in Tea Houses:

Upon your airport arrival, it is recommended to acquire a Nepali SIM card (with Ncell being a suggested choice) for the duration of your entire trek. You can opt for a tourist data pack that remains accessible for most of the trek, covering locations like Lukla, Namche, Phakding, and Gorakshep. While teahouses generally offer WiFi facilities, there are additional charges ranging from approximately 300-500 per device. Hence, having a data pack proves beneficial in these regions.

In Tyangboche or Deboche, Dingboche, and Lobuche, you can obtain a WiFi card from Airlink. They offer an unlimited internet package at the cost of NRS 700 for 24 hours and NRS 1200 for 48 hours. This Airlink WiFi is accessible in almost all teahouses along the way but can only be logged in on one device.

For charging, an extra fee is required, depending on the devices and duration. Free charging is available until Namche, where there is an electricity supply. However, after Namche, particularly from Dingboche onward, all teahouses rely on solar energy, and charging your devices is not free. The pricing for charging varies from place to place. Note that charging may be slow and challenging at times due to low solar energy.

Best season for Everest Bsae Camp trek 14 Days:

The key ingredient for a successful Everest Base Camp trek is timing it right. The optimal seasons for trekking are spring (March to May) and autumn (November to December). However, it’s worth noting that during these peak seasons, the trail tends to be crowded with fellow trekkers. If you prefer a less crowded experience, choosing the shoulder times such as post-monsoon and pre-winter is an option, and Nepal Peak Adventure can seamlessly arrange it for you.

Preparation for trekking in Nepal is a crucial aspect, and when it comes to packing gear, careful selection of the right materials is essential. A well-thought-out preparation and packing strategy contribute significantly to the success of the trek.

We conduct a thorough packing list check during the briefing session in Kathmandu and provide you with a company duffel bag. It’s important to note that there is a weight limit of 20 kg for luggage carried by our porter, with one porter assigned for two trekkers. Therefore, each trekker’s luggage weight should not exceed 10 kg. We kindly request you to pack accordingly.

Yala Peak Climbing

Yala Peak Climbing or Langtang Valley Trek is a combined trek and climb inside the famous Langtang Region. Located at an elevation of 5732 meters above sea level, the Yala Peak is a less technical climbing/trekking peak in Nepal. The peak can be climbed by a person without any previous climbing experience. Combined with Langtang Valley, the journey also includes visiting the famous Langtang Valley as well. 

The exciting journey to the Yala Peak starts with a short drive to Syabrubesi from Kathmandu . From there passing Lama Hotel with the greater landscapes, dense rhododendrons, and bamboo forest with cascading waterfalls, it then reaches Langtang village. Lantang is an interesting village inhabited by the Tamang people. Tamang is one of many tribes of Nepal, living in the higher hilly region of Nepal , and has a unique culture, tradition, custom, and language.

Like other trips in Nepal, Yala Peak Climbing and Langtang Valley Trek is also a seasonal adventure. The best time to trip is spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November). However, trekking in the months of winter (December to February) and monsoon (June to August) is not recommended.
