Also called as “The valley of glaciers” Langtang Valley is a popular and closest trekking region from Kathmandu. Sandwiched between the main Himalayan range to the north and a bit lower mountain range to the south, Langtang Valley offers exceptionally good mountain views. Throughout your journey, you will have spectacular mountain views of Langtang Lirung, Dorje Lakpa, Gaurishankar, Langshisha Ri, Gangchenpo, Yala Peak, Naya Kanga, Ganesh, and many other mountains.

In this trek, you walk through a beautiful trail passing through thick and green forests, meadows, crossing several streams, and you stay in Tamang Villages. You can learn about their unique and Tibetan-influenced culture and tradition.

In your 12 days Langtang Valley Trek with Himalayan Joy Adventure, you spend a day exploring Kathmandu and travel to Syabrubesi on the third day. Syabrubesi, a beautiful Tamang town, located at the base of a hill near Bhote Koshi River is the trailhead of Langtang Valley Trek.

From there, you walk for three days to reach Langtang Village and Kyanjin. Kyanjin is the furthest you will go in this trek. You spend a day exploring Kyanjin and hiking to Kyanjin Ri. Kyanjin Ri (4350 m) offers exceptional views of Langtang Lirung, glaciers, and several other mountains.

Then you retrace your path back all the way to Syabrubesi which takes about two days. From Syabrubesi, you travel back to Kathmandu by jeep. You will have an extra day to rest in Kathmandu. And the next day is for final departure.

Remember, Langtang Valley Trek is customizable. If you are short of time or want to spend more time in the Langtang Region, we can customize your trip as per your preference. You can complete this trek within 7-8 days or also extend the trek by combining Gosaikunda Lake Trek or Helambu Trek. So, please let us know if you need any change in this itinerary.

It was an amazing experience in the tamang culture and in the high montain altitude. My guide was Rajendra. He take care all the time for my best confort and safety and always with a smile. It was great time with him and he is now a friend.

Trip Note

ECO-FRIENDLY

Every day the world is facing a big issue of environmental pollution and in Nepal as well. Our field staffs are quite conscious about environmental pollution at any time and we encourage to all. We would suggest to our guest to use boiled water or water purification pills than buying a bottle of water, it helps to avoid plastic bottles which can take a long time to disappear. During the trek, if possible you can order same items food in a group which minimises the fuel used and to make a campfire is almost forbidden. We would encourage being a responsible traveller so, just leaving a footprint on the trail and bring out all non-biodegradables which you had.
