Overview
Langtang Valley Trekking
Langtang valley trekking is also popularly known as valley of glaciers trek. Langtang is one of the closet places from Kathmandu Valley where you could get to see huge snowcapped mountains and gorgeous glaciers. Langtang valley is located only 19 miles from Kathmandu on the north. Few hours’ of drive from Kathmandu will take you to the beautiful Langtang region.The whole valley is surrounded by Mount Langtang Lirung (7246m) that offers pine forest, rugged rock, swift mountain streams and snow-capped peaks. Though Langtang Valley trekking is very close to Kathmandu, the Langtang Region is as wild as any Tibetan highlands with peaceful rural scenery.
The starting point of the Langtang Valley trekking will be Syabrubensi. From here we will follow the Langtang River to the east until we get to Kyangin Gompa (3,049) with overnight stay at one of the hotel here. Heading up a gentle slope, we pass along the dramatic ridges through local villages inhabited by Tibetans, Tamangs and Sherpa people. Then we will come across the lush forest of Rhododendrons and oaks. Once we arrive the Langtang valley we will find flapping prayer flags in the main tracks, brightly painted chortens and Mani walls where yak herders welcome you to the land of these high mountain people.
Langtang Lirung, Langshisa, Ganjala Peaks are the center of attraction that we can see during the trek to Langtang Valley trekking. We will also visit the local yak cheese factory as well as the view of the glaciers, which is also a gateway to Tibet. Then we return back to Syabru village and make a trip to the holy lake Gosaikunda that is situated. This voyage takes you off the bitten track into the valley of a hardly untouched people. You will spend this 10 days in utmost joy and happiness.
