From Mundu, the trail climbs gradually through yak pastures as the valley opens out further and the views become more extensive. After crossing several small streams and moraines, the trail reaches the settlement at Kyangjin. Here there is a small monastery and a government-operated cheese factory, which is a good place to stock up for lunch and afternoon snacks.
You should take this ascent very slowly as the air is thin and the gradient gets steep. The gentler you are on your legs, lungs, and heart, the better. You will return back to Kyanjin Gompa with some of the most stunning Himalaya Mountain photos. The view from Tsergo Ri will just capture you, and you will not want to leave. Such is the captivating power of the Himalaya Mountains all along the Langtang Valley. Or ascend Kyangjin Ri directly behind the village, for a breath-taking panorama of the Langtang peaks.
