Gosaikunda Lake Melamchi Trek -14 Days

01 / THE EXPERIENCE

Discover the journey

Gosaikund Lake has a black rock in the centre, stated to be the pinnacle of Shiva. consistent with the legend, Shiva created this excessive altitude lake whilst he pierced a glacier together with his trident (Trishul) to obtain water to quench his thirst after ingesting poison accrued from the churning of the oceans ( the poison is the reason why Shiva is depicted with a blue throat). there's a white rock under the water that is stated to be the remnant of a historical Shiva shrine. it's also stated that the water from this lake disappears underground through a subterranean channel and surfaces in Kumbeshwar pool, next to the 5-Storey Shiva temple in Patan, more than 60km away. hundreds of peoples come right here to worship and shower for the duration of the whole moon pageant every August. Crossing the Laurebena (4610m), we hold south, leaving the Langtang valley in the back of us as we travel via the Helambu valley. From here, it’s just a few days trek again to Kathmandu.
