Situated in the remote valley
of Langtang, Nayakhang is a shapely mountain that rises to the west of Ganja-la pass. This is one the more easily accessible mountains from Kathmandu, as it stands within 30 kilometers of the Kathmandu Valley. We climb this mountain, establishing a high camp, and then follow its north-west ridge to the summit. Great views of Jugal and Langtang Himals await us on the summit. This route offers little technical climbing, but involves some steep snow and ice slopes.
For the approach to the base camp of this peak, we drive to Dhunche Bazaar and trek up the narrow gorge of Langtang Khola to enter the wide open valley of Langtang at Ghora Tabela. Hiking a leisurely pace, we take about 1 week to arrive at the Naya Khanga base camp. This hike allows us to get well acclimatized for the climb as we approach the base camp at Nyegang Kharka 4,430m./14,530ft.
Above this base camp, we follow the Ganja la Pass trail and turn right just before the pass to place a higher camp below the North East Face of Naya Khang at 4960m./16,268ft. From this high camp, we cross a prominent glacier shelf beneath the NE Face and get on to the North Ridge of the leading to the summit at 5,844m./19,180ft. The breath taking panorama from the summit to the north east include: Langshisa Ri (6,370m./20,899ft.), Pemthan Ri (6,836m./22,428ft.), and Shisapangma (8,046m./26,398ft.) in Tibet.
