Langshisa Kharka lies about 15 km east of Kyanjin Gompa, at about 4,160 m. It marks the farthest point you can reach along the Langtang Valley. The trail climbs gently along the glacial river, with wide meadows and yak herds on both sides. At the end, you face the pyramid-shaped peak of Langshisa Ri, and beyond it lies the Langtang Glacier. The round trip takes about 8 to 9 hours. There is almost no food along the way, so bring your own lunch and water. You can also spend the night at a simple campsite.
