However, the scenic beauty and splendid walking trail have made this lake a famous trekking destination. To reach Gosainkunda Lake, you can either take the route of the Langtang Valley Gosainkunda Lake Trek trail or start the trek from Dhunche. Moreover, there is another alternative route as well from the Chisapani Helambu Trek route. The most common route to reach Gosainkunda Lake is via jeep or bus drive from Kathmandu to Dhunche. The road trip lasts for about 7 to 8 hours depending upon the condition of the road. After reaching Dhunche, trekkers have to trek for 2 days to reach Gosainkunda Lake. Some people take the helicopter directly to the lake as well. Gosainkunda Lake Myth The lake is religiously significant to both sets of Buddhists and Hindu followers. According to Hindu mythology, the lake is the home of Lord Shiva and Goddess Gauri (Parvati). Gods and demons did the Samundra Manthan (Ocean Mining) to find elixir. During the process, the poison also got mined along with the jewels and elixir. The poison was about to destroy the whole universe. Therefore, Lord Shiva appeared and swallowed all the poison. To get relief from the burning pain, he threw his trident onto the mountains. Thus, it formed the lake. Therefore, Hindu people believe that the deities live in the water of the lake. In the Janaipurnima festival, thousands of followers visit the lake and dip into the water. People believe that dipping the water takes them closer to the divinity and helps them to get rid of all sorrows and sins. As for the Buddhists, the lake is the place for them to pay reverence to the departed soul. They believe that dipping in the water and praying on the shores of the lake help the people to have a peaceful afterlife. There are more than 100 ponds and smaller lakes in the vicinity.
