Tour Overview

If you’re looking for a short and easy trek, look no further. Sailung Trek is an adventurous trek suitable for both experienced trekkers and beginners. It’s a great way to spend time with family or friends that doesn’t require any special gear or experience.

The terms “Sai” and “lung” are combined to form the word “sailung.” Sai means hundred, and lung means windy hills. Sailung, thus, translates to “a hundred windy hills.” One can conclude the destination’s beauty from the name alone.

Regular mountain trekkers tend to explore less of the Sailung region. It is located on the boundary of the Ramechhap and Dolakha districts. This trek is intended for individuals who want to explore the wildlife and local culture in Nepal’s hills below 3200 meters above sea level.

The Sailung trail is easy to follow and takes you through some of the most beautiful views on this planet. From taking in the alluring vistas of the Himalayas to discovering the culture and history of the Tamang and Sherpa communities. 

Along the trek, you come across the breathtaking vistas of Mt. Everest, Annapurna, Dhaulagiri, Ganesh Himal, and more. Moreover, the trail leads you through charming local towns, terraced farms, lush forests, rivers, and steep hills.

Sailung trek starts with the sightseeing of some of the famous places of Kathmandu. We will then take a scenic drive to Dolakha. Our trekking journey starts from Dolakha and then we will trek via many ancient villages and dense rhododendron forests to reach Gurase Bhanjyang. Trekking ahead will take us to Chaubas Himal where we will do an excursion and take a rest day as well. Trekking through Bholung and Bhakunde Besi will take us to Sailung village which is the final destination of our journey. We will then trek down to Palanchowk and take a drive back to Kathmandu to end our journey.

Short Explanation of the Trip

The trip to Sailung begins with a drive from Kathmandu to Mude Bazaar. From here, the trek advances through local villages like Khola Kharka, Dhormba Gompa, Gurase Bhanjyang, etc. You pass through dense rhododendron, pine, and oak forests along the way.

 As you continue the trek, you pass through Bholung, which eventually leads to Sailung village. After spending a lovely time in Sailung, the trek proceeds to Palanchowk, and the trip ends with a drive back to Kathmandu.

Best Time to Trek

Sailung trek is accessible any time of the year. Whatsoever, if you want to enjoy it at its fullest, autumn and spring is the best choice for the trek. During these times of the year, the weather is pleasant and stable, making travel easier and more convenient. Additionally, the air is clearer, allowing for magnificent distant mountain vistas under clear skies.

Likewise, traveling to Sailung in winter is not much of a hassle. Winter can be challenging, but it’s not the worst time to trek. Besides the cold temperature, you can enjoy the true beauty of the trek.

On the other hand, trekking in monsoon can be tough due to frequent rainfall. Flood and landslides are likely to occur. However, you won’t find it when traveling during other seasons. The monsoon has its own charm.
