Overview
A beginner-friendly climbing peak above the Langtang Valley, with mostly easy rock and snow near the top.
Yala Peak, usually listed at about 5,520 m, is one of the more approachable Himalayan summits. There are no long glacier crossings, and the top has wide views of Shishapangma in Tibet.
You combine the Langtang Valley trek with a guided climb from Kyanjin Gompa, so the trip suits someone trying a first climb.
Some rope work may still be needed on the summit ridge. Permits are required.
