trip Overview
Langtang valley trek is a pleasant trip with the adventurous trekking trail through Langtang valley. It is a short trek yet it offers you the best panoramic glimpse of the untouched Langtang area. Langtang valley trek goes from Syabru Besi (1470m) to hit Kyajin Gompa (3870m), followed by rushing rivers and lush forests. Walking around the high ridges and pastures, we can witness some of the best vistas of mountains like Langtang Lirung, Langtang Ri, Ganesh Himal, Dorje Lakpa, etc. Also, many Tamang villages on our ways welcome us with their different culture, lifestyle, and authentic cuisines.
Our Langtang valley trek begins with tours of Kathmandu’s UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The journey from Syabru Besi to Langtang Valley is a ride of a rollercoaster. The trail leads through mountains, a forest of Oak, Fir, Rhododendron, and Pine. We also climb Tserko Ri for excellent sunrise views over the Langtang ranges. Tserko Ri is also one of the best view-points of this trek. The National Park contains lots of wild animals such as Red Panda, Snow Leopards, Musk Deer, Himalayan Thar, Black Bear, wildcat, and Jackals. More than 200 spices of birds and Butterfly can be seen. From Langtang valley, the track continues to Kyangjin Gompa which is the most sacred monastery of this region. A small religious place surrounded by mountain peaks from all directions, this place is an Art of God. A continuous walk on pastures of Langsisa (4.084 m) provides the good views of numerous glaciers and many more. With Nepal Dream Path Treks & Expedition this wonderful Langtang valley trek comes to a conclusion in Kathmandu, where it had started.
