Gosaikunda Trekking is known as a sacred holy pilgrim place for all Hindus and Buddhists, where once in every year all the devotees from around many places of the country and even the Indian Hindus come to take a holy dip in the lake.

Gosaikunda is an alpine freshwater oligotrophic lake in Nepal's Langtang National Park, located at an elevation of 4,380 m in the Rasuwa District with a surface of (34 acres).

The lake melts to form the Trishuli River; it remains frozen for six months in winter October to June.

There are altogether 108 Kundas around this area which mainly are Saraswati Kunda, Bhairab Kunda, Surya Kunda, Naga Kunda, and Gosikunda which seems most popular among the Pilgrims.

Its waters are considered holy and of particular significance during the Gangadashahara and the Janai Purnima festivals when thousands of pilgrims from Nepal and India visit the area.

People believe that once you take a shower in this holy Gosaikunda Lake, all your pain, sorrows, and sins will be gone.

Gosaikunda is believed to have been created by Lord Shiva when he thrust his Trishul into a mountain to extract water so that he could cool his stinging throat after he had swallowed poison.

The trek to Gosaikunda starts in Dhunche Village or Syabru Besi in the Langtang Himal, or in Sundarijal in the Kathmandu Valley.
