Syabrubesi
स्याब्रुबेसी
A small road-end town and the starting point for Langtang trekking, about 7 to 9 hours by bus from Kathmandu. You can spend a night here before setting out.
Syabrubesi lies at about 1,460 m, where the Langtang River meets the Bhote Koshi River. It is the shared starting point for the Langtang Valley route, the Gosainkunda route and the Tamang Heritage Trail. The town has guesthouses, shops and a checkpoint, where you can buy last-minute supplies and have your permits checked. Buses and shared jeeps run daily from Kathmandu, and the roads are bumpy. About 15 km north is the Rasuwa border crossing between Nepal and China.
