Surrounded by pleasant hilly landscapes, the journey crosses Trishuli Bazaar continuing onto Satdobato. Overnight in Satdobato.
The journey begins with a pleasant ascend heading towards Kispang. Trekking through the lush green forests gives a pleasant experience as we step up to the hamlet dominated by the Dalit and Tamang people.

The final stretch of the journey takes quite a toll as we trek through the rising altitudes to reach Rupchet. The hamlet is blessed with stunning views of Tibetan, Langtang, and Ganesh Himal ranges. Overnight in Rupchet.
Today, we head over the Singla La Pass and, at an altitude of 4045m, this is the highest point of our journey. The journey is an ascending one as we slowly conquer the steep Himalayan trail heading towards the summit. All along the way, we are blessed with stunning views of Ganesh Himalayan Range alongside Manaslu, Annapurna, Langtang, and Tibetan Ranges. With the summits of Ganesh Himalayan Range guiding us, the journey heads down reaching Shertung. Overnight in Shertung.
One of the shortest days of the trek, today, we head towards Shertung Village ascending from Shertung Kharka. The journey enters the dense forests once again taking us through the hilly landscapes for about an hour. Thereafter, we reach the terraced farmlands leading to the Shertung Village. With the snowy summit of Ganesh I (7,422m) enriching the landscapes, we can also familiarize ourselves with the local culture and way of life. Overnight in Shertung Village.
The journey is quite an easy one. Heading out of Shertung Village, the trail heads through flat lands for about an hour before setting off on a descending route down to Borang Village. The Tamang village boasts stunning views of the entire Ganesh Himalayan Range. After a brief rest, we set off continuing our journey through terraced farmlands all the way down to Jharlang Phedi.

The hamlet houses a small school and health post alongside several projects carried out for the development of the community. You can choose to take part in the local projects while also indulging with the locals in their day to day life. You can also choose to go swimming or fishing taking a break from our long days of travels. Overnight in Jamrung.
The final day of the trek and also the final day of the trip today we head back to Kathmandu but first comes the short walk to Sukaura. Crossing the suspension bridge and leaving the forests brings us to the hamlet from where we board the bus back to Kathmandu.
