About Langtang Valley Trek

Langtang Valley Trek is well-known for seeing red pandas and some other endangered Nepal Himalayan animals in the northern region of Kathmandu. Langtang hiking is located among Nepal's Langtang National Park, which would be home to numerous wildlife such as Himalayan Thar, Mountain Goats, Musk Deer, White Monkeys, Snow Leopard, but one of Nepal's most famous national birds, the Danphe (Lophophores), and some others.

The Langtang Valley Trek begins on a day's drive to Syabrubesi via bus. We stroll to KyanjinGompa through the little settlements, farming land, and lush greenery. The sunrise vista from TserkoRi over the Langtang range is outstanding.

Langtang Valley Trip is a fairly challenging week-long hike. We walk vertically and horizontally high uphills and downhills. An intermediate trip, on the other hand, does not demand as much technique, expertise, or experience as a tough class trekking.Whereas intermediate treks, simple treks feature lengthier hikes and elevations. In several areas, the terrain is either uphill or downhill. To appreciate the walk, you'll require acceptable levels of physical fitness.

Several of the notable locations in Langtang include Gosainkunda, LauriBinayak Pass, and KyanjinGompa. Trekkers are also enticed to this region by the stunning scenery of LangtangLirung, Ganesh Himal, and Manaslu.

The relics of the 2015 Gorkha earthquake could be seen along the way. Also, watch how the Langtang valley and walking paths have been repaired by the villagers. This village will show you a meaningful example of a country recovering after a major disaster.

The Langtang Trek proceeds from Langtang village to KyangjinGompa (3,740meters). The Yala Cheese Site is situated here. It is excellent to see the Yala Cheese Factory (4.633 meters) or the little lakes surrounding Yala.

Tips & Ideas

Food and Accommodation

This is perhaps the most common type of walking in the Langtang Valley, and so it merely consists of hiking through one tea house to the next. Tea houses are tiny hotels that could be found in nearby towns and then provide combined accommodations and homemade meals. In most cases, bedrooms are shared by two backpackers.

Trekkers can choose according to their choice which is listed on the menu of Tea House. Well, typical meals include eggs, Dal Bhat, fried rice, momo pizza, veggies that you can eat during your trek. As meat is not hygienic in the trekking trails so we recommend you avoid meat during your days in Manaslu.

Best time to trek

Spring and Autumn are the main peak seasons to trek not only in the Langtang region but all the trekking routes in Nepal. During this season, you can enjoy the red rhododendron forests with the beautiful mountain panoramas. Also, the weather is warm and stable where the temperature ranges from 10-15 degrees Celsius. Lastly, there is not any chance of rainfall during this season therefore, you are free to walk to the place you want to explore.

Langtang trek difficulty

Langtang Valley Trek is recognized as a moderate trek that can be done easily. Usually, this is a bit difficult to trek because of the walks and altitudes in the higher elevation. Though this is a moderate-level trek, you need to be physically and mentally strong enough to complete this trek.

Despite being a moderate trek, this trek does not require any skill, knowledge, or old experience of trekking in Nepal.
