A classic trek that reveals a colorful side to adventurers, prepare to be in awe as you journey to a 12-day trek to the magical land of Langtang valley located north of the Kathmandu Valley. Starting from the stone paved path of the tiny villages in the lower region surrounded by the viridian forest Kyanjin Gompa to climbing Tserko Ri which is an excellent place to view the sunrise hit the Langtang Range, the landscapes keeps you at bay with its natural beauty.
The Langtang Valley offers you a supernatural hike with its misty road and the clouds draping over the mountains with its thickness making it more haunting and mysterious. As there is barely any sign of human settlement after the earthquake wipeout back in 2015, many people have hesitated to go there but it’s a great idea if you put behind your fears and open your arms to a more natural Langtang for adventure. (It is completely safe!)
Langtang also proudly represents home to thousands of both flora and fauna (both brids and animals), having a sub-tropical climate surrounded by lush rivers, glaciers and thick green forest hills in its very own National Park. Culturally rich and diverse, Langtang is a small heaven in Earth that welcomes you with its grandiose natural attributes and if you’re energetic enough you can even raft in the Sun Koshi or Trishuli River that flows east and west to the valley.
