Ama Yangri Trek – 6 Days Overview

Ama Yangri Trek is one of the shortest treks from Kathmandu, yet the most beautiful peak is located in the Helambu region, Sindupalchok. Ama Yangri is one of the holy peaks at 3771m from sea level. Helambu region is popular for a lot of trekking destinations. However, Ama Yangri is one of the less explored areas with off-beaten paths.

Ama Yangri is also known as Poonhill of Helambu region and Ama Jyomoyangri locally. The word Ama Yangri is a combination of two sacred words, “Ama” (Mother) and Yangri (Goddess). “ Ama Yangri is the deity of the Helambu region that protects people and places from evil.

Throughout the journey, you will travel through gorgeous routes. These routes will take you through deep forests, quaint villages, and terraced farms. The highlight of the trek is reaching the top of Ama Yangri. From there, you will enjoy panoramic vistas of snow-capped peaks. Some of these peaks include Langtang Lirung, Ganesh Himal, and Jugal Himal.

You will be able to immerse yourself in the rich local culture of the Tamang and Sherpa communities along the way. Interact with the welcoming inhabitants, learn about their traditional way of life, and enjoy their warm hospitality.

The Ama Yangri trek is moderate and ideal for novice and experienced trekkers. Marvel Treks guarantees a well-organized trek with knowledgeable guides who offer aid and insights along the journey.

Ama Yangri is lagging behind tourism and is not much famous among people even though the place is very deserving.

Trip Map

Best Season to Go

The best season to trek Helambu Ama Yangri peak is in spring (March-May) and autumn (September- November). In this season the temperature is very favorable, and the views are very clear with crystal blue sky. You can see a green forest, Rhododendrons, and beautiful mountain views.

This season doesn’t receive much rainfall and the trails are in the best condition. It is still possible to trek in the Monsoon season and winter season but due to heavy rainfall and snowfall, you have to be more careful with the trails since they are muddy and slippery.

Other Requirements

Travel Insurance

You can always purchase your travel insurance. It usually costs around 150$(15000 NRS) good for 30 days. It is important to mention or cover high altitudes since trekkers sometimes really need to be evacuated from helicopters.

Safety and fitness

However, it is always better to practice and prepare yourself for the journey. You can do light exercises, running, and jogging before your trek starts.
