Langtang trek is one of the most popular trek in Nepal, known for its unique Tibetan and Tamang culture, alpine biodiversity and beautiful views of Langtang Himalayan range.
Langtang trek mostly occurs within Langtang National Park which is home to rich vegetation and diverse animal species such as Red Panda, Himalayan Black Bear and Ghoral. You will hike up to Kyanjin Gompa and from there explore Kyanjin Ri (4350m) and capture breathtaking views of Langtang mountains. You will also visit beautiful villages of Syabrubesi, Lama Hotel, Sherpa Gaon and especially Langtang Village which was completely destroyed by the 2015 earthquake.
After early morning breakfast, drive from Kathmandu to Syabru Besi (1460m.) which takes about seven hours. You head north out of Kathmandu driving through scenic foothills and ridgeline vistas to Syabru Besi passing through Dhunche. Stay overnight at lodge.
After breakfast trek from Syabru Besi (1460m.) to Lama Hotel (2470m.) takes about five and half hours. The first part of the trail crosses through Bhote Koshi and follows the Langtang Khola. Thereafter, your trek ascends gently to Rimche (2400m.) through Bamboo (1960m.) which lies at the bank of Langtang Khola. Stay overnight at lodge.
