Langtang Valley Trek Overview

The serene, Langtang Valley, which is where our trek begins, is located within the beautiful, scenic Langtang National Park, north of Kathmandu. Langtang National Park, established in 1976 as the first Himalayan National Park, is one of Nepal's treasures. This trek provides all of the breathtaking beauty of the majestic Himalayas, with its glorious views of Langtang Lirung (7,246 m), Gang Chhenpo (6,388 m), Naya Kanga Ri (5,846 m) and Dorje Lakpa (6,966 m).

With its spectacular, picturesque views, the beauty and serenity of nature, and the spiritual ambience of the Himalayas, makes this a trekker's paradise and dream come true. The trek is designed for trekkers who want to experience the stunning mountain scenery without extreme technical challenges. The moderate difficulty level makes it accessible to trekkers with reasonable fitness levels.

The journey begins with a drive from Kathmandu to Dhunche, the gateway to Langtang National Park. From there, you'll trek through traditional villages, lush forests, and alpine meadows. The highlight of the trek is reaching Kyanjin Gomba (3,730 m), a sacred Buddhist monastery where you'll have an important acclimatization day.

During your acclimatization day at Kyanjin Gomba, you have the option to hike to Kyanjin Ri (4,770 m), which offers spectacular panoramic views of the surrounding peaks. The descent follows a similar route, allowing you to enjoy the scenery once again as you make your way back to Kathmandu.
