Lamjung District, Administrative district in Gandaki Province, Nepal.

The district spans across 1,664 square kilometers of varied terrain, from subtropical valleys to high mountain peaks reaching 6,988 meters in elevation.

The district played a crucial role during Nepal's unification period, serving as a strategic location for military campaigns under Prithvi Narayan Shah's leadership.

The population includes substantial communities of Gurung, Chhetri, and Hill Brahmin people, with Nepali, Gurung, and Magar languages commonly spoken throughout the region.

Besisahar, the district headquarters, functions as the primary transportation hub with regular bus connections to Pokhara and Kathmandu throughout the year.

The district contains the Lamjung Himal, a mountain range bordering the Annapurna region, making it an entry point for numerous trekking expeditions.
