Once this route was an important trading route with Tibet, therefore, most of the villagers and peoples here still are involved in the similar trade. One can also have a trek through Langtang National Park. Subsequently, we continue our trekking to Kyangjin Gompa (3,740 m), which is the site of the Yala Cheese Factory.
