Re: Helambu
It's a long time since we hiked Helambu (2001) on our way to Gosainkund and Langtang. You can hike north from Sundarajil and then make a circular route ending up back near Kathmandu - probably about 6 or 7 days hiking. It's quite a nice hike through the foothills and along the tops of ridges. You can see the Himalaya ahead gradually getting closer. This is a low level hike and at no time do you feel that you are in the mountains. It was December when we hiked and there were very few other trekkers about. I have no idea how this trek might have been affected by road development (dirt tracks like the Kali Gandaki road in Annapurna).
