This is a little seasonal settlement for Gosainkunda hikers. First, in August, for the pilgrims to the holy lake, next, in September-November and again during spring time for trekkers. In late November-December until end of February they close down for the winter.
The accommodation seems fairly rudimentary and with little architectural charm and with limited facilities - judging from a visit to the toilet pit...
I only went on day trips here - either past or up from Chandan Bari - and didn't stay for the night. The place is probably good for those who come over Laurebina La from Helambu, and as a staging post for going the other direction and for general acclimatisation here at about 3800 meters.
Unique Qualities: This place has such a fantastic 270 degree panorama view that it is worth coming here and take a cup of tea and some snacks just for the view.

Directions: From Singh Gomba about 1 1/2 -2 hrs with photo stops. From Thulo Syabru perhaps 4-5 hours. Local sketch maps indicate far more time than what I have said here.
