Overview
Tamang Heritage Trial Trekking
Tamang Heritage Trial Trekking is one of the most exciting trekking in Nepal located between Langtang and Ganesh Himal. It is exactly situated at the Nepal Tibet Border where the Tibetans from China and Tibet migrated to Nepal 400 years ago and adopted Nepali origin. We can see many other ethnic tribes here. In this trekking route we can see beautiful different tamang culture, the language of tamang people,religion and daily lifestyle of Tamang community of Langtang region. The trekking is normally of total 9 to 12 days. It is a combine camping, home stay and lodge trekking package.
Tamang Heritage Trial Trekking begins from Syabrubesi from where we head up to Gatlang and Tatopani. Gatlang is a traditional Tamang village which set high on a hillside among terraced fields with Tamang settlement. During the trekking, we can see many exciting things. We can discover the history of Tibetan ancestors. We can see the tiny wood craved houses where they live and beautiful colorful traditional dresses. These peoples main occupation is agriculture and trade. The culture is these people are virtually untouched. The splendid view of the snow-capped mountains is unforgettable and breathtaking. If you plan for this trekking, then you can plan in the month of March and April where you can see Rhododendron forests with many different species of trees, birds and butterflies, majestic waterfalls, many sacred lakes also known as “Kunda”.
