Nepal has many hidden gems and the Ama Yangri peak trek is known as one of them. Located in the Helambu region of Sindhupalchowk district, it is one of the isolated and less popular but amazing hiking destinations in the Helambu region.

According to the myth, Ama Yangri is considered to be a deity that has turned into the protector of the Helambu region.

How to go for the Ama Yangri Peak trek

Ama Yangri Peak Trek starts from Kathmandu, and we drive for 4 hours to reach Timbu. After we reach Timbu, we hike towards Tarke Ghyang. Tarke Ghyang is a small village situated on the way to our destination. The trek is adventurous as we pass through beautiful villages and landscapes. From Tarke Ghyang, we hike towards our destination, “Ama Yangri” (3,771m). Ama Yangri is also known as Ama Jyomo Yangri. You pass along the dense rhododendron forest and wildlife inhabitants. On the way, you can find many ancient monasteries and Buddhist prayer flags. You can enjoy the panoramic view of the Himalayas and the serenity of the place. After some peacetime and observing natural beauty, we head back towards Tarke Ghyang. You’ll trace back your footsteps to Timbu from Tarke Ghyang. From Timbu, we head back to the capital Kathmandu.
