Ganesh Himal, a "Great Himalayan Chain" a sub-range of the Himalaya located in north-central Nepal, includes; Yangra (Ganesh I), 7,422 m (24,350 ft) highest peak in the range, Ganesh 2nd  7,118m, Salasungo (Ganesh 3rd  7,043, Pabil (Ganesh 4th)  7,104 and  some other peaks lie on the border with Tibet. There are three other peaks over 7000 meters plus some fourteen others over 6000 m in the range. We can observe all the series of Ganesh Himal, Buddha Himal, Manaslu Himal in the west and Langtang Range in the east. The panorama from the trail Singla to Pansang Pass (4050m) is unbelievably mesmerizing and superb. The area is separated by  the Langtang Area; on the east and the the Budhi (Buri) Gandaki valley and the Shyar Khola valley on the west separate it from the Tsum Valley and the  Manaslu Region, The range lies about 70 km north-northwest of Kathmandu.

The name Ganesh for the range comes from the Hindu deity Ganesha, usually depicted in the form of an elephant. In fact, the south face of Pabil (Ganesh IV) slightly resembles an elephant, with a ridge that is reminiscent of an elephant´s trunk. The area, not frequented by many trekkers, situated northwest of Kathmandu is characterized by the terraced hillsides that seem to climb to the sky. Many interesting ethnic groups and a mixed lifestyle offer you a glimpse into real Nepali life and this gives visitors an opportunity to observe the rich Nepalese cultural tradition from the closest quarter and intermingle with locals. Apart from this, the area also offers an excellent habitat for a wide variety of plants and animals: 526 species of plants (including 40 species of orchids), and 300 species of birds. Other interesting wild animals are the Himalayan Thar, Gaur, many kinds of Monkeys and musk Deer.
The place is comparatively close to Kathmandu than other trekking trails but it is totally unspoiled and less visited route starts from Betrawati, after driving almost 5 hours from Kathmandu, passing through charming villages and picturesque landscapes of the country. Trekking through Tamang Heritage Trail rewards the visitors with great experience of deep look into glorious Tamang Cultural heritage and the treasure of natural beauty and life time experience of delightful locals in beautiful mountain villages.
