Gosaikunda, a revered holy place in Nepal, attracts thousands of pilgrims each year seeking peace and blessings. Situated at an altitude of 4,380 meters in Langtang National Park, Gosaikunda Lake holds immense spiritual significance for both Hindus and Buddhists.

 

The lake, spanning around 34 acres, remains frozen from October to June, reflecting the snow-capped mountains and treeless hills that surround it. Gosaikunda is not just a sacred site but also a stunning natural destination, drawing tourists seeking its breathtaking beauty in a tranquil environment.

 

Trekking and Helicopter Tours are popular ways to explore Gosaikunda, with the latter offering a swift and convenient approach to this sacred land. According to Hindu mythology, the lake's origins are linked to the epic tales of Ramayana and Mahabharata, where it is referenced as Samundra Manthan. Hindus believe Gosaikunda to be the abode of Lord Shiva and Goddess Gauri.

 

Pilgrims flock to Gosaikunda during the Hindu festivals of Gangadashahara and Janai Purnima, as the water is considered holy and believed to bestow protection on those who drink from it.

 

A Gosaikunda helicopter tour offers a grand spectacle of the entire region. Departing from Kathmandu, the flight treats passengers to aerial views of the Kathmandu valley, lush hills, and eventually the awe-inspiring Himalayas rising over the foothills. The landscape transitions from tree-filled slopes to oligotrophic aquamarine lakes. The treeless hills showcase the magnificent snow-capped Himalayan peaks in the north.

 

After landing near GosaiKunda, the exploration of this enchanting region begins, including visits to various linked lakes. Pilgrims have the opportunity for prayer and worship, and Havan Puja is conducted for those seeking spiritual connections.

 

The journey concludes with breakfast in a nearby village, leaving travelers with a cherished experience and memories of the remote and holy grandeur of Gosaikunda.
