Day 4 - Mon June 12, 2007 : near to the destination Gosainkunda (4381m)

We all wake up in a usual time of 6:30, and we packed up and went inside to breakfast. Our main destination (Gosainkunda) was nearly 3 to 4 hrs far. We were ready for the last adventure.
Our trail was is now to the up. The trek up to the Lauri Binayak(4610 m) was harder. Rabin, Bikash and me took the lead, with Shashi and Rajesh close behind. The trail was like the gravelled toad, hard to cross, we made great time. The trail is covered with poisonaus grass and we were having little difficulties in breathing, rest in such place was much harmful. We had some milky chocolates and cateberies to boost the energy. After 3 hrs. of continuous walk we finally reached Lauri Binayak (4610 m) . We all were safe with that poisonous grass. We took rest for sometime and begin very easy trail to the down.

We got to the Holy Gosainkunda Lake at around 11:00 AM, and dropped our bags in front of a hotel and be fresh. We had tea and the went the holy bath in the lake. We worship in the small temple of God Shiva near the lake. Then we took bath in the cool water and traveled around the lake.
After all that we had our usual lunch in the round table outside the hotel. The next trail was to down, down and down...Steeply down towards Dhunche (Capital of Rasawa). We had reached the summit and seen the amazing down views, mountains were not visible clearly. We started our down trip at arround 2:30 PM. Dhunche was nearly 5 hrs far.













Me, Rabin and Bikash were leading and Shashi and Rejesh were far behind us, we have planed not to wait for them in the way. Altitude was decreasing ... and decreasing. After 1.5 hrs we reached Sing Gompa (3350 m) and stopped for a rest. We pulled out the pack of cateberies and Chocolates. We enjoyed trek relaxing inside the sunny, warm and beautiful forest (LamTang National Park). We crossed different small villages like Sing Gompa (3350 m), Dhimsa (3007 m) etc. Those villages were surrounded with the thick forest. We were afraid of the wild animals in the national park. We saw a beautiful deer on the way but unable to capture it with our camera.

The Down trail was over at around 6:45 PM and Dhunche was only half an hour far. We cross a small river and went through the straight and easy way. After sometime we have reached the mineral water industry. Then our path was towards the Small and Beautiful District Capital City Dhunche. We reached there at 7:00 PM but our two friends were still back.

We searched and booked a beautiful lodge there and keep off our Bags and Jacket, took rest for some time and be fresh.
Two friends were still not in the contact, they may still back so Me and Rabin went to look for them. At 7:45 PM they reached Dhunche we bring them to the lodge. We all were very happy for the successful completion of the trek because next day we will be going to Kathmandu by Bus. At arround 9:00 PM we had our usual dinner watching TV. After lunch we went to the room. By 10:30 the room light were turned off.
