Bonus and tips for the staff |
The
quickest approach to Paldor and Ganesh Himal
is from Sabru near Dunche in the Trisuli valley,
which can be reached in a 6 to 7 hours drive
from Kathmandu. From here the trail crosses the
Langtang Khola to Sabrubesi. After crossing the
Bhote Kosi river the route leads via Tamang villages
of Tangjet and Gatlang, then heads northwards
along the ridge before dropping into the forest
above Mailung Khola to pick up the newly built
road that leads to an army post. The moraine
filled valley below Paldor is reached from here
in another days walk. A more interesting approach
is the trek from Sundarijal (on the outskirts
of Kathmandu valley) through the hills of Helambu
and over the Gosainkunda range to Sabru. The
return from the mountain can be made by trekking
directly to Trisuli Bazaar in about 4 or 5 days
from where a drive of about 3 hours bring one
back to Kathmandu. Paldor lies at the southeast
end of Ganesh Himal marking the junction of the
Tiru and Karpu Dandas at the head of the Mailung
Khola, a tributary of the Trisuli Gandaki river.
The name Ganesh is taken from the elephant-headed
Hindu god of good luck, probably the most popular
deity in the Kathamndu valley. On a clear day
the Ganesh Himal, with the icy fangs of Pabil
(7,101m/23,300ft), Logsang Karpo (7,150m/23,458ft),
Ganesh I (7,406m/24,298ft) and Ganesh V (6,950m/22,802ft)
can be seen forming an imposing backdrop to the
northwest of Kathamndu.
