    Basic Intro

    The Langtang Valley trek of 11 days offers splendid varieties of natural and cultural diversity with spectacular Himalayan views and provides different experience that could not be found in another place. The mixtures of royal waterfalls, bamboo forests, rhododendron and snow-capped Himalayas are the main highlights of this 11 days Langtang valley Trek.

    Langtang Himalaya is the closest Himalayan range from Kathmandu, although being very close to Kathmandu; the Langtang Region is as natural as any Tibetan high ground with heavenly rural landscape. The people living in the highlands of the Langtang region are certainly Nepalese but being the descendant of the Tibetan origin, they look like the Tibetans. Hence, Langtang region is one of the most popular trekking regions for those wishing a short trek from Kathmandu into the Himalayas influenced by Tibetan lifestyle.

     

    The Langtang Valley trek – 11 days begins with 7 hours bus ride from Kathmandu to Syabrubesi. And next day we start walking from Syabrubesi to lama hotel then langtang village and then Kyanjin Gompa.  After exploring the Tsherko Ri, we walk the same route back to Syabrubesi and drive back to Kathmandu.
