Accessibility

Tsergo Ri Peak can be climbed from Kyanjin Gompa the ascend takes up to 6–7 hours and up to 3–4 hours to descend, it's considered a challengeable trek due to the strong wind and the time consumed to reach the top, as well as the rough trail which can be fully covered with snow in winter and no access to drinking water.

From the top of Tsergo Ri, trekkers can see a panoramic view of the Langtang mountain range and Shishapangma mountain.
