Langtang Valley Trek
Overview
Langtang Valley Trek is a spectacular excursion in the northern part of the Kathmandu Valley. During this moderate trek, you walk the Tamang Tibetan cultural territory. Their cultural traditions are motivated by Tibetan Buddhism. Tragically, the largest villiage in the Langtang Valley was buried under an avalanche following the 2015 earthquake. The tea houses have been rebuilt and the valley is eager for visitors to return and help their economic recovery. On this trek you will experience unique cultures, chortens and mani walls, and stunning Himalayan panoramic views. Beginning the trek from Syabrubesi, you walk through the dense woods of the rhododendron, birch and bamboo forests of the Langtang National Park and emerge onto a plateau as you approach the glaciers above Kyanjin Gompa. It is a spiritual destination with a colorful monastery and hanging prayer flags. The view of Mt. Langtang Lirung and the Tibetan peaks will astound you.
