Langtang valley and Gosaikunda lake are two main highlighting aspects of Langtang Gosaikunda Trek. Langtang is a beautiful valley that lies very close to Kathmandu valley. Though close, the valley is able to maintain its remoteness. The dry and rocky terrain of the valley makes it even more alluring. The magnificent mountains that rises tall above the valley adds to the glory of the place. The valley is mostly inhabited by people of Tamang community.

Gosaikunda Lake is also popular destination in Langtang region of Nepal. The place has high significance amongst the Hindu pilgrims. As per Hindu mythology, during Samundra manthan (process of extraction of elixir by demons and gods), Sesnag (King of snake) was used as rope to rub mountain in between the ocean. During the process poison was generated that could destroy the world. Lord Shiva, the great one drank the poison to save the world from poison. He couldn’t bear the pain of burn hence struck his trident in the mountain to drink water in order to reduce the burning sensation. Therefore, the lake was formed from the water from mountain which is now known as Gosaikunda lake. The place has many other lakes around it like Bhairav Kunda, Chandra Kunda, Dudhkunda, Ragarkunda, etc. A bath in the holy lake water of Gosaikunda is believed to relief a person from all kind of sins.
