On rustic trails just north of Kathmandu, experience splendid panoramic views and diverse landscape along Langtang valley below the imposing and magnificent Langtang Lirung mountain.
Exceptional 360-degree mountain views of the snowcapped mountains, including Langtang Lirung, Langtang Ri, Gangchempo, Langsisa Ri, Yala Peak, and many more, from the impressive vantage points of Kyangjin Ri (4,773m/15,655ft) and Tsergo Ri (5,033m/16,500ft). | |
Diverse trails from temperate rhododendron, maple and bamboo forests to alpine yak pastures to glacier moraines while following Langtang Khola all along. | |
Welcoming Tamang and Sherpa faces, mountain culture and hospitality, peaceful monasteries, mani walls and chortens. | |
Local cheese factory and the charming monastery in the Kyangjin village. | |
Wild honeycombs on the cliffs, interesting birds, Himalayan tahr, musk deer, and the endangered red panda in the rich fauna land. | |
The historic town of Nuwakot with the iconic seven-storeyed Nuwakot Palace. |
A moderate level of physical fitness and endurance is required to do Langtang Valley Trek. Although the trek is not as demanding as some other high altitude treks in Nepal, it involves walking for approximately 5 to 7 hours each day, covering varying terrain and altitudes. The trails are a mix of gradual ascents and descents, as well as some steep sections. We take it slow and maintain a steady pace to acclimatize with the altitude as we ascend.
The accommodations are mountain lodges with decent facilities, except in Lama Hotel (where it gets very basic). The temperature can sometimes be freezing in Langtang village and Kyangjin Gompa. Your luggage will be carried by porters and our seasoned guides will be there to ensure your safety.
