Tsum valley is located in northern Gorkha District, Nepal. This valley has the area of 1663 square kilometres. It lies against the wonderful backdrop of Ganesh, Sringi and Buddha Himal. It is a sacred Buddhist pilgrimage as well as famous for Buddhist culture and tradition. Very popular Buddhist Yogi Chyuchin Milarepa meditated in the mountains here. We can also find many Buddhist temples in this valley. From this place, we can see the panoramas of the mountains and beyond.
Terminologically, ‘Tsum’ comes from the Tibetan word Tsombo, which means vivid traditionally, and it becomes Tsum in the course of time. It is famous for its cultural variation. This is the place which is very rich in ancient art, religion and culture.
The most beautiful part of this valley yoga trekking is that we can choose for natural, religious, cultural as well as spiritual purpose to trek here.
