Langtang Trek is an 8-day adventure into the Himalayas in the Langtang region of Nepal, a remote mountain north of Kathmandu. This trek offers a perfect blend of natural beauty, cultural experiences, and moderate trekking challenges due to its forests, alpine meadows, and mountain views. Trekkers enjoy the Tamang villages, Buddhist monasteries, and unimpeded scenery of Langtang National Park, including views of Langtang Lirung (7,227 m) and other Himalayas.
Exploring terraced fields, rhododendron forests, and crystal-clear rivers, trekkers experience the local Tamang and Sherpa cultures. Kyanjin Gompa monastery offers historical and spiritual value, while glaciers and alpine meadows provide spectacular photographic and meditative scenery.
This trek is ideal for those seeking a relaxing and refreshing Himalayan experience with fewer trekkers than Everest or Annapurna regions, offering an immersive journey through one of Nepal’s most scenic valleys.
The trek begins with a scenic journey from Kathmandu to Syabrubesi, a village on the Bhote Koshi River bank. Trekkers move through pine and rhododendron-oak forests along the Langtang Khola River, passing tiny Tamang villages to experience local life and customs.
Moderate trekking leads to Kyanjin Gompa, a village with an ancient monastery and access to Langtang Glacier. Side trips such as the ascent to Kyanjin Ri offer panoramic mountain views. The return follows the same trail back to Syabrubesi, ending with a drive to Kathmandu.
Langtang Trek offers a holistic Himalayan experience combining culture, wilderness, and memorable mountain moments.













Travel through zigzag roads passing small villages, terraced fields, and the Trishuli River. Formalities are completed at Syabrubesi, the entrance to Langtang National Park.
