Close to Kathmandu and located on the north side of the capital, Langtang Valley is among Nepal’s top trekking destination. The valley blends Tibetan lifestyle with amazing landscapes.

The magnificent view of Langtang Lirung, Langtang RI, Kimshung and Dorje Lakpa surrounding beautiful Langtang Valley is a luring factor of this trek. You can delve into the unique culture of locals influenced by Tibetans.

 

Langtang Valley badly suffered in the 2015 quake. Locals of Langtang Valley lost so much on that nightmare.

Itinerary

Our representative will pick you from the airport and take you to hotel in private vehicle. You do not have to worry about permits and legal process. We will arrange everything for you. We set your overnight stays including breakfast.

In the next morning, you can tour around Kathmandu after having your breakfast. You can go on this tour with a tour guide or alone. Pashupatinath, Boudhanath, Swayambhunath and other UNESCO-listed world heritages are the major attractions in Kathmandu Valley.

After morning breakfast, you travel via a bus through Trishuli Bazaar, and then Dhunche to Syabrubesi. Although roads are bumpy and rough, the travel becomes so pleasurable with sights of beautiful landscapes and snow-covered mountains.

 

You stay at a lodge in Syabrubesi. Make sure you sleep on time as your body is tired of long and enduring bus ride.

As the trek begins, you pass through Bhote Koshi River and follow Langtang River. After passing through a suspension bridge, you have to walk through Pahiro to reach to Bamboo. The trail then crosses a subtropical forest. Red Panda, Langur monkey, wild boars and various birds inhabit the forest.

 

The trail then ascends through Rimche to end the day trek at Lama Hotel.

After morning breakfast, the fifth-day trek begins with a gentle uphill climb. But, the trail soon becomes steep as you trek further. As glimpses of beautiful Langtang Lirung and other snow-covered peaks start appearing, your trek becomes more interesting. You can give your legs a rest and have your lunch in Ghoda Tabela.

 

As you ascend uphill, you will reach to a beautiful valley – Langtang where you will see yaks grazing all over the pastures. You will spend your fifth night in Langtang Village.

You are already above 3400-meter altitude, so the sixth-day trek is a short one.

 

The trek begins after morning breakfast. You pass through a Buddhist shrine and trek to Mundu. After you travel across streams, wooden bridges and moraines, you get a glimpse of Buddhist monastery called as Kyanjin Gompa.

 

The village is named after a Buddhist monastery Kyanjin Gompa which is made up of local woods and stones. There are Buddha images and idols.

 

You can visit a cheese factory there. You can rest or explore the area after having your lunch. Langtang Lirung, Kyanjin RI, Tsergo RI, Langshisha RI, Yala Peak are some mountain peaks you can see from Kyanjin Gompa.

The seventh day is for rest. As you have climbed to more than 3800 meter altitude, your body needs to adjust to the change in the environment. Also, it is a precaution for altitude sickness.

 

If you feel comfortable, you can explore Kyanjin as you can visit the monastery, cheese factory, and glaciers. You can also hike to Kyanjin RI or Tserko RI. From those points, you can see the breathtaking view of Langtang Valley, Langtang Lirung, and some other snow-covered mountain peaks.

 

Tserko RI stands at an altitude of 5,033 meters which is the highest point of Langtang Valley trek.

You descend more than 1430 meter for around 6 hours trek for overnight stay at Lama Hotel. As you return through the same trail, you can take a rest in Ghoda Tabela and have lunch. Make sure you enjoy the magnificent view of the snow-covered mountain range while descending down to Lama Hotel – it’s a sight to behold.

After morning breakfast, you trek downhill through beautiful forests and villages to Syabrubesi.

Drive back to Kathmandu through Pasang Lhamu Highway along the Trishuli riverside. 7 to 8 hours drive will bring you back to Kathmandu. In the evening, you get to share experiences with your guides or friends with dinner at hotel.

If you are travelling with a travel company, they will pick you from Hotel to airport for final departure. If you want to go on other treks in Nepal, you can continue from Kathmandu. If not, you can fly back to your home.
