The Langtang valley, though only a few hours away from Kathmandu, is unique because of its close approximation to Tibet and relative un-commercialization. Trekking in this predominantly mountainous region will take you on a journey to ancient times with the relatively quieter trails, presenting an opportunity to dwell on a preserved slice of Tibetan lifestyle in the Himalayas.

Known also as the valley of glaciers, Langtang is rich in biodiversity, picturesque landscapes and magnificent views of prominent peaks like Langtanglirung, Yala peak, and Gangchhenpo among others. One can also extend a trek in the Nepal Langtang region to visit the sacred lake of Gosainkunda and incorporate a trek to Helambu via Laurebina pass.

“Lantang valley is the most beautiful green valley in the world.”- Bill Tilman, legendary mountain explorer.

The Langtang Valley trek passes through the Langtang National Park. This trek rewards hikers with rich biodiversity found in the subtropical and alpine landscape. The forest covers more than 25% of the entire 1,700 square kilometers of protected national parkland. Many famous Himalayan ranges such as Langtang and Langtang Linrung fall in this region.
