Ganga Jamuna Trekking Mainly this trek is in dhading district where you can enjoy your holiday in Nepal. Only possible for camping (organized) because of there are no tea house recently now a days if you survive with local atmosphere then can be possible for simple way, so there we can update out eco trek.

We found this alternative trekking route towards the North-West of Kathmandu after years of research and experiences. It is entirely a camping trek. This area is inhabited by many culture rich ethnic groups and adorned by lush green forests, pure white water falls gushing down the rocky cliffs from high mountains and magnificent views of the snow-capped mountain ranges of Ganesh Himal, Manaslu, Buddha Himal, Latang and part of Annaparna range. While, this trekking route is popular among local pilgrims visiting the twin sister deities Ganga and Jamuna, the area is fairly untainted by any signs of modernism as hardly any outsiders visit here. So, it is a wonderful experience to travel here and intermingle with the ever-smiling hospitable people and understand their culture and lifestyle.

This is a purely camping and moderate trek. You pass different villages where you can interact with the different ethnic groups of Nepal such as Newar, Gurung, Brahmin, Chhetri and few others. The trail offers you a peek observation of the culture and unchanged tradition of these people. The majestic mountain peaks you can enjoy are Langtang range, Ganesh Himal, Shringi Himal, Manaslu range, Lamjung Himal, Himalchuli, Annapurna range and many other unnamed mountains and peaks.

While trekking you find this trail is enriched with beautiful flora and fauna. You pass rhododendron, pine forests with other natural vegetation. These forests are home of various species of birds and wild animals this trail offers you a visit to Hindu and Buddhist pilgrimage site as well. The famous Tripura Sundari Temple lies at Salyankot where there is held a big fair from time to time.

Hindu devotees offer special prayer and animal sacrifice to the deity. Except these Buddhist monasteries and chortens preserve distinct culture and tradition in itself. Another attraction of this trek is that you visit Ganga Jamuna which is a twin waterfall. There is a Kukur Dhara (Dog Spring) and it is believed that taking a dip into this will rid you from rabies. Ganga Jamuna is Hindu pilgrimage site where a famous fair is held around the temple before three days of full moon day during the first week of November. Here is a holy stone which is highly revered by the Hindu devotees and local people. It is believed that this holy stone preserves the divine power as water originates from there.
