Read the full journey overview
Nepal, surrounded by mountains and known as the land of Himalayas got more than 1000s of peaks. Nepal has 1,310 peaks above 6000m and 414 peaks are already open for climbing and there are only 72 peaks which are of 7000m and are climbable. These peaks are limited for climbing. Most of the 7000 m peaks are more challenging and technical which requires a high level of commitment and dedication with mountaineer experience. Langtang Lirung is a subrange of the Nepalese Himalayas above 7000m, southwest of the Eight-thousander Shishapangma. It is part of a mountain range that also contains the Jugal Himal, Shishapangma's home range, on the western side. Between the Trisuli Gandaki river on the west and the Sun Kosi valley on the east, sits this mountain. North of the Langtang Khola, close to the Trisuli Gandaki, is where you'll find Langtang Lirung.
