The Langtang Valley Trek in Nepal begins with a tour of Kathmandu’s UNESCO World Heritage Sites, followed by a drive to Syabrubesi on the next day. Following our route map, we start trekking in Nepal from the lower region of the Langtang Valley, passing through the Langtang National Park, small villages, farmlands, and verdant forests until we reach Kyangjin Gompa.
Here, we also climb Tserko Ri for excellent sunrise views over the Langtang ranges. The region borders Tibet and was once an important trading route, evident in the rich local culture. The Langtang Valley Trek’s itinerary also includes a visit to the ‘Langtang Village,’ heavily affected by the devastating earthquake in April 2015.
