Trek to Helambhu
This trek, just a few hours from Kathmandu, crosses the area of the sources which supply the town with drinking water and leads through a multi-ethnic ar (Newars, Brahmans, Tamang and Sherpa) where traditional villages are nestled in the hills at the middle terraced fields and a wild forest. Each of them has got its own monastery and each house keeps a “prayer corner” which is very representative of Tamang and Sherpas people. From cultivated terraces the steps lead you up to the crest-line which offers wonderful views and on your way; you’ll see Buddhist monuments, Mani walls (prayers) as far asYangriPeak(natural Stupa, sacred mount, place of pilgrimage) and its all surrounding View over the Sherpa country.
