Overview

The Langtang Valley 10 Days Trek is a journey that unfolds slowly, allowing you to truly feel the rhythm of the Himalayas. Just a few hours from Kathmandu, this trek leads you into a quieter mountain world where forests, rivers, glaciers, and traditional villages exist in perfect harmony.
From the very first steps in Syabrubesi, the trail follows the Langtang River through dense forests of bamboo, oak, and rhododendron. As you walk higher, the landscape opens up into wide valleys framed by snow-covered peaks. Along the way, you stay in small mountain lodges, share stories with local families, and experience the simple yet deeply rooted culture of the Tamang people.
Reaching Kyanjin Gompa feels like arriving at the heart of the valley. Surrounded by towering mountains and glaciers, this peaceful settlement offers time to rest, reflect, and take in the vastness of the Himalayas. The optional climb to Tsergo Ri is the most demanding part of the trek, but standing at the top, with endless Himalayan peaks stretching in every direction, makes every step worthwhile.
This trek is not about rushing from point to point—it is about connection. Connection with nature, with local life, and with yourself. Ideal for trekkers who want authentic mountain experiences without heavy crowds, the Langtang Valley Trek leaves you with lasting memories and a deep respect for Himalayan life.
