Kathmandu is not that big city compared to other big cities in the world however, the unique characters and locations of Kathmandu give it the feel of the bigger city as it takes quite time to completely visit it.

The travelers on the 3rd day of Lamjung Himal trekking wake up at Kathmandu and prepare for long day travel. Today the travelers aim to reach beshi Sahar. The distance between Kathmandu to Beshi Sahar is about 173KM which can be easily completed in 5 to 6 hours if the vehicle moves at a steady speed. The vehicle moves to Prithivi highway to escape Kathmandu valley and get to the destination of day 3. The night will be spent at beshi Sahar.

The trekkers will wake up at Beshi Sahar and make their destination to Baglung Pani. On the 4th day of Lamjung Himal trekking, the walking part of the trek officially begins. Baglung pani is located at the altitude of 1524m from sea level while Beshi Sahar was located at an elevation of 823m from sea level. The traveling time required to reach baglung pani from Beshi Sahar is estimated to be 5 to 6 hours. If the trekkers can begin the walk early, they can have leisure time in the afternoon.

The destination of the 5th day of Lamjung Himal trekking is Ghanpokhara. Ghanpokhara is located at an elevation of 2200m from sea level. The average time needed to reach Ghanpokhara from Baglung pani is about 5 hours. However, Ghalegaon is on the way to reach Ghanpokhara. Ghalegaon is one of the most popular destinations in Nepal where tourists come to enjoy this beautiful settlement.

This settlement is famous for its traditional houses and the beautiful view of nature from there. It is on the way so if the trekkers start early, they can spend time at Ghalegaon. After passing through Ghalegaon after some time Ghanpokhara will be reached and the night of the 5th day of lamjung Himal trekking will be spent there.

Trekkers will wake on the 6th day in Ghanpokhari to reach their destination. After getting ready and becoming fresh they will get some food and begin their journey. The trekkers must move towards the ridge to reach Bhasi Kharka.

Rambrong lower base camp is located at an elevation of 3765m from sea level. The trekkers need to walk few hours to get here. However, the walking pace and the trekking experience of the person determines the average walking time of the group. For experienced and young trekkers, the average time may not take while for little bit inexperienced and old age trekkers it may take more time than average time also. Also, the altitude at the end of this day will reach 3765m so the trekkers will need to take care of themselves at high altitudes and severely weaken some individuals.

This is the 8th day of the Lamjung Himal trekking and this day is also packed with much adventure and fun. The trekkers need to do a variety of things today. The first option is to get to  Telbrung Danda’s viewpoint while the second option is to rest. Telbrung Danda viewpoint provides an astonishing view of the surroundings and peaks. The trip to the viewpoint is optional and people who do not want to go on to the peak can rest at the place they had stayed the night.

The rest also seems nice as they had been on the road or walk for more than a week. For the people who have no prior trekking experience, such long continuous movement can take a toll on the body so if people are not feeling like they can carry on they can also take a rest or put some days of rest between the trekking period. The leisure days between the trekking days also aid the acclimatization to the high-altitude environment.

Rambrong base camp is the final destination of day 9 of Lamjung base camp, however, reaching it is not the main attraction this day. The trekkers will first climb the west summit of the Rambrong. The summit is located at an elevation of 4500m from sea level. First, the trekkers will climb to the peak of Ramborg and descend to the base camp to spend the night. The Rambrong base camp is located at an elevation of 3850m from sea level. The trek of the 9th day may be hard so the trekkers need to rest and have a good diet to keep them energetic and strong.
