Tour Overview
"The Langtang Valley has long been a favorite trek due to its expansive views, authentic Tamang culture, heartwarming hospitality, and accessibility from Kathmandu". Before the 2015 earthquakes, the trail through Langtang, Helambu, and Manaslu were favorite options for trekkers looking for a short, sharp dose of Himalayan trekking without the hassle of flying to distant trailheads. Unfortunately, the devastating earthquake that took place in April 2015 had an enormous effect on the region, but aid and reconstruction have recently reopened this valley to trekking again. Not only it is a beautiful trek, but your visit will also provide vital support for local livelihoods. Langtang trek is a trek with real heart. The Langtang Valley is considered as one of the most beautiful places in Nepal and was once the darling of trekkers seeking stunning landscapes and authentic culture along with heartwarming hospitality — all within easy reach of Kathmandu. However, the visitors are less these days in the Valley as the people of Langtang are continuing to rebuild their lives after the 2015 earthquake. Survivors of the landslides caused by the devastating earthquake were forced to leave the valley, but now they have come back to reclaim their homeland, rebuild their homes and re-establish their farms. Trekking in this picturesque valley will support the people by providing much-needed income to rebuild in a sustainable manner and secure way. This is not a charity but a business end of sustainable travel, where your travel choices can respectfully support local people while preserving their dignity, their culture and their way of life. Be wowed by nature, be humbled by the human spirit and be a part of local solutions when you choose to trek in Langtang Valley. The trek starts at the small town of Syabru Besi. You will trek through magnificent forests to the high alpine meadows and yak pastures around Kyangjin Gompa (a Buddhist monastery). After an (optional) day hike up to the top of Kyangjin Ri (peak), where the 360-degree views of the Himalayan mountains are truly spectacular, you retrace your route back down the valley and drive back to Kathmandu. If you want to shorten your trip and running out of the time then consider adding a helicopter ride from Kyanjin, this will surely prevent you from retracing the route all the way back, you'll experience an unforgettable view that can't be had any other way. Contact our specialists if you are interested in doing the Langtang Trek, who will arrange your trek in an organized manner.
Highlights
Itinerary
Day 1 : Drive From Kathmandu To To Syabru Besi (1,460 M / 4,790 Ft.) Duration: 6-7 Hours.
Location: Syafru
Accommodation: Lodge
Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner
Leave Kathmandu early for the seven-hour journey to the Langtang Valley. The road climbs high over ridges as it leaves the Kathmandu Valley, and provides impressive views of the Annapurna Himalayas in the west, to Manaslu, Ganesh Himal and the peaks of the Langtang region ahead. We drive through the bustling town of Trisuli before climbing towards Dunche and the Langtang National Park. After the town of Dhunche, it is another hour downhill to Syabru Besi and your lodge for the night.
Day 2 : Trek From Syafru Bes To Lama Hotel (2,470 M / 8,103 Ft.)
Location: Lama Hotel
Accommodation: Lodge
Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner
Today’s trail crosses the Bhote Kosi — meaning ‘Tibet River’ — which flows from nearby Tibet. It then gradually climbs through sub-tropical forests to join the trail from Syabru Besi, then climbing through uninhabited oak and rhododendron forests. Look out for langur monkeys in the trees. The trail through the forest up to Lama Hotel becomes steep, but the reward is a comfortable bed in a cozy lodge in the small settlement.
Day 3 : Trek To Mundu / Langtang Valley (3,550 M / 11,646 Ft.) Duration: 5-6 Hours.
Location: Langtang trekking tour Agency::Langtang Valley trekking, Gosaikunda Tours
Accommodation: Lodge
Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner
The trail continues to climb through forest, with occasional glimpses of Langtang Lirung between the trees. At Ghora Tabela (3,000 m. / 9,842 ft) the trail emerges from the forest and the mountains loom on either side of the valley. Once there was a Tibetan resettlement project here, but now it is a Nepal Army post with no permanent inhabitants. The trail continues to climb gently and the valley widens, passing a few temporary settlements used by herders who bring their livestock to graze in the high pastures during the summer. You will probably glimpse your first yak if you haven’t already. The next part of the trail is a somber reminder of the 2015 earthquake. Where Langtang village once was, with numerous lodges, there is now only a huge rock field. Spare a thought for the Nepalis and tourists who lost their lives here, and remember that your journey here will help support the survivors. Mundu is just half an hour’s walk further on. The old houses here are a reminder of what all the villages once looked like in this valley. Most of the lodges and homes in this area are now built in a more modern style.
Day 4 : Trek To Kyangjin Gompa (3,800 M / 12,467 Ft.) Duration: 4-5 Hours.
Location: Kyanjin Gompa
Accommodation: Lodge
Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner
From Mundu, the trail climbs gradually through yak pastures as the valley opens out further and the views become more extensive. After crossing several small streams and moraines, the trail reaches the settlement at Kyangjin. Here there is a small monastery and a government-operated cheese factory, which is a good place to stock up for lunch and afternoon snacks. As you will arrive by lunchtime there is time to take it easy in the afternoon or explore the area. If you are feeling energetic, head up the Valley towards Langshisha Kharka to see some of the amazing views.
Day 6: Rest Day In Kyangjin Or Climb Kyangjin Ri (4,850 M / 15,912 Ft.)
Location: Kyanjin Gompa
Accommodation: Lodge
Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner
Today you can rest or explore the area. You can visit the monastery and the cheese factory, walk up the moraine to see the spectacular ice faces and tumbling glaciers of Langtang Lirung or ascend Kyangjin Ri directly behind the village, for a breath-taking panorama of the Langtang peaks.
Day 6 : Trek To Lama Hotel. Duration: 5-6 Hours.
Location: Lama Hotel
Accommodation: Lodge
Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner
From Kyangjin retrace the route you followed up the valley, following the Langtang Khola to Mundu village and on to Ghora Tabela. The descent will certainly be faster than the ascent. After lunch, continue the steep descent to Lama Hotel.
Day 7 : Trek To Syabru Besi. Duration: 5-6 Hours.
Location: Syafru
Accommodation: Lodge
Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner
Continue retracing your steps to Syabru Besi, enjoying the quiet forested hills. If you are feeling fit, take the spectacular route from Rimche via Sherpa Gaon to Syabru Besi; it will take much longer to reach the ultimate destination, but it’s a stunning detour.
Day 8 : Drive From Syabru Besi To Kathmandu. Duration: 6-7 Hours.
Location: Kathmandu
Accommodation: No Hotel
Meals Included: Breakfast, Lunch
Traveling from Syabrubesi to Kathmandu is an exciting journey along the bending roadway with full of views of green hills and gorges. You will be transferred to the hotel where you either have leisure time or you may catch the last moments exploring the missed sights or shopping for gifts to your nearest ones. In the evening, we organize the celebration dinner together.
