Langtang Valley Trek

Langtang is one of the most beautiful treks in the Himalaya. Its high alpine valley is inhabited by a Yak herding tribe closely related to Tibetans. It lies north of Kathmandu, a scenic bus drives away. Dhunche is the major village, district headquarters for this area and gateway to the Langtang National Park. As we trek towards the Langtang valley we are walking through the pine, oak and rhododendron forests. Spring in Langtang, when the flowers are in bloom, is really a trekkers paradise. After countless beautiful villages & mountain views, we arrive at our destination in Kyanjen Gompa, a huge valley with mountains all around and where the glaciers meet the alpine meadows. Retreating downhill we then ascend again towards the sacred lake of Gosaikunda. Then we trek south east towards Kathmandu valley crossing the high Lauribina Pass and enjoying the beautiful Sherpa region of Helambu.
