Langtang Region Peaks

The Langtang Region, located north of Kathmandu and bordering Tibet, is known for its serene alpine valleys, rich Tamang culture, and accessible trekking peaks—ideal for climbers seeking a less-crowded Himalayan experience.

Yala Peak (5,732m) is one of Nepal’s easiest trekking peaks (Grade F), located near Kyanjin Gompa in the Langtang Valley; it’s often attempted over 12–14 days, requires no technical mountaineering skills, and is perfect for beginners or acclimatization before higher expeditions, offering great views of Shishapangma (8,027m) in Tibet.

Naya Kanga (5,844m), also known as Ganja La Peak, is more challenging (Grade PD+), involving snow slopes, ridgelines, and sometimes fixed ropes; typically done in 14–17 days, the climb starts from Kyanjin Gompa and passes through the remote Ganja La Pass (5,100m), providing sweeping views of Langtang Lirung, Dorje Lakpa, and Ganesh Himal.

Both peaks fall under NMA Group "B" trekking peaks, require climbing permits, and are best climbed in April–May or October–November, when the weather is clear and stable.
