Himalayan Masters has been organizing Langtang Valley Trek for almost a decade
now. Over the years, we have seen hundreds of tourists adore this alpine land of Nepal,
and we are sure that you are gonna love it too.
When the royal family approved in 1976, the region started to be protected as the
Langtang National Park to conserve the forests, wildlife, and many other cultural and
natural resources.
Recently, it has become one of the popular trekking decisions after the Everest
Recently, it has become one of the popular trekking decisions after the Everest
or Annapurna region. Himalayan masters arrange a perfect trip in the Langtang
region for those who have included the Langtang in their bucket list.
The Langtang Treks is a comparatively closer trekking destination than other popular
regions. Apart from the Langtang Valley Trek, Langtang Gosaidunda Trek is also a
popular trekking trail in the area.
If you are seeking a crowd-less trekking route, the Langtang Valley hike, popularly
known as Langtang Trek, can be the best option for you. This trail comes under the
easy-to-moderate trekking route, a good choice to do as a practice trek before
trekking other big treks of Nepal.
Distance: 77 km
Start/Finish: Sybrubesi
Total Ascent: 3925 m
Total Descent: 3925 m
Highest Station: Kyanjin Ri (4700 m)
Permits: TIMS Card/ Langtang National Park entrance permit
In comparison to the famous Annapurna and Everest trek, this particular Langtang
Valley tour allows you to enjoy solitude and peace. The trails and the accommodation
along the pathway are as comfortable as in the Ghorepani Poonhill trek or the Everest
Base Camp trek. Also, you get to witness the famous Tamang cultural heritage sites.
The panorama of over eight mountain peaks of 6000 m in height allows you to catch
beautiful pictures and videos on Langtang’s premises.
During this particular trek, you mostly hike at an altitude of 4,000m. It can go up to
Tserko Ri, which lies at an altitude of 5,000m above sea level.
The trek route crosses Langtang National Park, where you can witness the blooming of
rhododendrons and walk via the bamboo forest. On the way, you pass through
beautiful waterfalls and fantastic scenery of terrace farmlands. In addition, you will be
surprised by hundreds of flora and fauna, Yak pastures, and some local cheese
factories.
Do note that this particular Langtang trekking region was greatly affected by the 2015
earthquake, and your visit might be the chance for the economy to recover. Any
expenses you make during the Langtang Valley now go for the renovation of the
trekking routes as well as the upliftment of the economy in the remote village of Nepal.
Some of our clients also prefer taking a Langtang helicopter ride from Kyangjin Peak to
Kathmandu with spectacular views from the helicopter. Although it is quite expensive,
you will have an unforgettable experience, and most importantly, it shortens the tiring
trip.
If you think Langtang treks are suitable for you, don’t hesitate to get in touch with
Himalayan Masters, who will fully customize the trip according to your time, interest,
and budget. We will provide you with an experienced guide with an authentic license. If
you add three extra days to your itinerary, you can combine your Langtang trek with
the Tamang Heritage trek which gives you a wonderful cultural experience.
ITINERAY
Day 01: Drive from Kathmandu (1400 m) to Syabrubesi (1500 m)
The trip begins at the Kathmandu Hotel. After breakfast, Himalayan-Masters will send
you a taxi for pick up to Machhapokhari Bus Park, from where you will take our reserved
jeep for Syabrubesi. You will have a wonderful experience driving through Shivapuri
National Park.
The zigzag country road, traditional villages, terraced farmland, and fantastic
mountain views from the window keep you alert and excited throughout 6 to 7 hours of
travel. Before you reach Syabrubesi, there are a few stops on the way. Tasting some
local flavours at Trisuli Bazar or Dhunche is fantastic.
The snow-capped peaks of the Ganesh Himal range from the trail between Dhunche
and Sybrubesi are lovely. Like other trekkings, the Langtang trek is also a teahouse trek
as the accommodation throughout the trip is the teahouse with basic facilities. These
simple lodges are comparatively cheaper and offer delicious meals with local tastes.
The food at a higher altitude is more expensive than the beds. You are expected to eat
at the same teahouse where you booked your beds. They might charge high if you do
not eat there.
It is the first day to begin the actual trek. After having a yummy breakfast at nearly 7
am, the trek to Lama Hotel begins. Lama Hotel lies almost 7 hours away from
Syabrubesi. The trek starts by crossing a suspension bridge over the Bhote Koshi River.
The trail then ascends upward through the dense forest of Rhododendrons and pine.
The beautiful landscape, impressive waterfalls, and a few hot springs are the
additional charms of the trails. Lama Hotel is situated at an elevation of 2480 meters.
You will probably stay overnight at the Lama Hotel.
Day 03: Trek from Lama Hotel (2480 m) to Langtang Village (3430 m)
The third day’s trail passes through pine and rhododendron forests and finally enters
the broad valley of Langtang. Today, you will witness a few beautiful views of the
Langtang Himal range. Langtang Lirung is the highest among the
peaks. Godatabela is an essential stop with a beautiful settlement that lies nearly
halfway on the route for the day.
You will probably have lunch at Godatabela. The trail then moves across alpine
meadows, where you will see a lot of livestock grazing. The trail then leads you to
Langtang village, where you will stay overnight. This small and beautiful Langtang
village was severely damaged in the 2015 earthquake.
village was severely damaged in the 2015 earthquake.
After the devastation, the region remained almost ignored for months, but the
reconstruction projects made a huge difference. The traditional styles of houses have
been rebuilt in modern designs. There are plenty of hotels and lodges with modern
facilities.
Due to the beautiful Alpine scenery, the third and fourth days of the trip probably
became the best days. Starting the trek quite early from Langtang village, you must
ascend a steep trail crossing some settlements managed and used by the shepherds.
Today’s trail is at a higher altitude (3500 m), so you will rarely see the permanent
settlements. Thus, the shepherds’ temporary huts are the only options if you decide to
spend the night before reaching the Kyanging Gompa. There is a fantastic example of
a Buddhist Mani wall near the community of Kyanjing Gompa.
You will see the beautiful wall of stones carved with religious scriptures. After arriving at
the village, spending a few more hours exploring the surrounding areas is best. But you
will be checked in at one of the best teahouses and keep all the luggage before you
begin strolling around.
Tesergo Ri is the most preferable option for most trekkers. The breathtaking views of
more than 20 peaks can be enjoyed from Tesergo Ri. The Langtang Lirung (7234 m) is
the highest in the Langtang range. The viewpoints of Tesergo Ri lie at an altitude of
4984 meters.
Another option for the day’s hike is to Kyanjing Ri at an elevation of 4400 meters just
northeast of Kyanjing Gompa. It is a comparatively easier and shorter hike than the
Tesergo Ri. 360-degree views of snowy mountains, beautiful valleys, lakes with
frozen water and the Glaciers are spellbinding from the top of Kyanjing Ri.
Whichever summit you choose, you are required to return to Kyanjing Gompa for an
overnight stay. It is approximately a 6- to 8-hour hike both for going and returning.
Visiting the most elevated viewpoints of the whole trip, you will gain unique
experiences you will never forget.
Now it’s time to return. After enjoying the last breakfast at Kyanjing Gompa, the trek
begins at the Lama Hotel, where you spend a night on the second day of the trip. It is
quite a long walking day. However, most trails for this day are to descend, which is
more comfortable than ascending.
Today, you will explore the Langtang Valley in a better way as the more extended
portion of the walk lies through the valley. Upon arriving at the village, you will be
checked in at one of the fine teahouses for an overnight stay. Enjoy the second night at
Lama Hotel with a fantastic dinner and a farewell party (probably there will be).
Tamang Heritage and Gosaikunda Lake trek are the best options to extend your trek.
There are two route options to descend back to Syabrubesi from Lama Hotel. The first
is the same one you took initially, and the second is much steeper.
This route will offer fabulous views of the Langtang Valley and some tall mountains. Our
guide will decide which road to follow depending on the weather and the clients’
stamina.
Meal : Breakfast Lunch Dinner
Enjoy the farewell dinner organized by our company and go to bed with pleasant
memories of the Himalayas. Note: at least two more days are required before and
after the trek, especially for trekkers from countries other than Nepal. Make sure to have
a minimum of 10 days so that you can explore Kathmandu and enjoy the Nepal trip
without any haste.

What does a day in Langtang Valley Trek look like?
Our typical Himalayan Langtang Valley Trek includes five days of trekking, two days in
a hotel, and one rest day at a hotel in Kyanging Gompa. Each day of the entire trek has
something new and exciting to offer. As mentioned earlier, we first need to drive from
Kathmandu to the Langtang region, and then the walk begins.
During the trek, wake up between 6 am and 7 am. So you freshen up, you can take your
time cherishing the breakfast and capturing some morning views of the mountain.
Each day, you can order breakfast in the evening to be ready when you wake up.
Between 8 o’clock and 9 am, we start to follow our guide. She is a mountain and mostly
looks clear in the morning. We take a lot of time for photos and videos and stars after a
few hours of patience, and on the way, we stop for lunch.
The launch will be in one of the 80 houses along the way. If You want to trek in relatively
remote Nepal routes, you must carry your lounge yourself. Our films the entire way of
Lantern Valley has numerous G houses you can’t stop for lunch and one of them.
Although the guide can’t suggest the best place to stop, you can always choose a
different one. You can pick any food from the menu, and it will take about an hour for
the food to get ready. We suggest Dal Bhat for the lounge because it gives you much
energy for a further walk.
We walk for a few more hours and usually reach our destination around 4 to 5 pm.
When you get to the guest house, you can enjoy some welcome drinks and snacks
before exploring the nearby villages. Often, there are age small monasteries and
houses in the village that you can visit. Otherwise, you can rest for a few hours and
prepare for dinner. Make sure that you order your dinner a few hours before you eat.
Usually, dinner is from 7 o’clock to 10 o’clock. During this time, the team members are
often gathered for gossip and storytelling. After that, you ought to get to dinner quite
early.
Obviously, the rooms do not have attached bathrooms. You will need one or two
bathrooms on a sharing basis for the entire tea house, and it is quite basic. For the hot
shower, you need to pay a few dollars extra.
All kinds of food is served in the central restaurant. You are not allowed to eat in any
other guest house or tea house other than the one you stay at. That’s the rule in the
mountains.
Thankfully, there are many ATMs around Kathmandu where you can withdraw your
Cash from Visa and Mastercards with a 3 to 4% charge applicable. If you want to bring
Cash from your home country, it’s better to get US dollars for each conversion in Nepal.
You can pay the travel agency with a card and withdraw the Cash only for the trekking
route.
The warm welcome and hospitality of the Tamang community are really worth
learning about their way of life. Your visit to this region is greatly appreciated as it has
made a wonderful contribution to restructuring and rebuilding the local houses that
were badly destroyed in the 2015 earthquake. You can also check Langtang valley
before and after the earthquake during the trek.
The choices include reserving seat(s) in a local bus or hiring a private jeep. The local
buses leave daily from Machhapokhari near Balaju Bus Park. However, we, Himalayan
Masters, recommend taking a private jeep for our clients so that you can stop to
capture pictures of mesmerizing mountains and beautiful landscapes from some
stations. It would be fine if you could get a ticket for the express bus, which does not
stop during the journey.
The most popular extension for the Langtang Valley trek is the Gosaikunda trek
because both destinations lie close to one another. Other extensions are the
Kathmandu Valley Trek, Chitwan Jungle Safari, Pokhara Tour, and more.
We recommend adventurous activities like white water rafting, bungee jumping, and
paragliding at a cheap price while in Nepal.
Reviews
Wir haben bei Himalayan Masters aufgrund der guten Bewertungen bei
Tripadvisor einen Trek ins Langtang Valley mit der Yala Peak Besteigung
angefragt, nachdem wir mit einer vorherigen Organisation nicht zufrieden
waren.
Unser Guide Dipak hat die ganze Zeit eine super Betreuung übernommen
und hat die Wanderung mit interessanten Informationen angereichert. Man
hat sich die ganze Zeit absolut sicher gefühlt und man konnte die
nepalesische Gastfreundschaft immer spüren.
Auch für die Organisationen von etwas sightseeing und einer Food-Tour in
KTM standen Sandip und Dipak zur Verfügung- und das alles zu angemessen
Preisen.

Phenomenal winter Langtang Valley trek with “Sandy” and “Pete”! We are a
couple, 48 and 55, from the US. I’m vegetarian. Sandeep, the owner of
Himalayan Masters, was highly responsive and professional from our very
first contact. My partner had been concerned I wasn’t in shape enough to
successfully complete the trek, but Sandy’s mindset coaching, alongside his
flexible approach and insistence that I could do it if I just took it slow and
gave myself the time I needed. He was so right! One of the hardest things I
have done physically, yet I felt strong and solid throughout. Petamba also
baked me a birthday cake for my 48th in the mountains. When it came the
final day, my partner peeled off and did the more difficult peak with Sandy,
and Pete guided me to the more manageable 13,500-foot peak. Pete is a
wonderful guide in his own right- patient, careful, and encouraging, and with
a safety-first approach.
The Langtang trek is spectacular, and Himalayan Masters made it easy.
Can’t recommend them enough- we are already talking about our next trek
with them!

in Nepal mit Himalayan Masters zu buchen. Unser Ziel war der Langtang Trek
mit anschließender Besteigung des Ayala Peaks.
Bei dieser Organisation ist das ein Rund-Um-Sorglos Paket. Sandip, der
erfahrene Hauptverantwortliche von Himalayan Masters kümmert sich um
alle Bedürfnisse seiner Kunden. Alle Planung, von Unterkünften über
Autofahrten bis Mittagessen, hat die Organisation sehr zufriedenstellend
übernommen.
Für den in jeder Hinsicht beeindruckenden Langtang Trek wurde uns der
Guide Dipak zur Verfügung gestellt. Er kennt sich nicht nur auf den Treks
super aus und hat Wissen über die Region sondern ist auch ein sehr netter
und unkomplizierter Zeitgenosse. Wir haben die Zeit mit Ihm und den ganzen
Trek sehr genossen, obwohl wir den Yala Peak aufgrund eines unerwarteten
Schneesturms nicht erreichen konnten.
Für den ersten Trek haben wir uns auch dazu entscheiden Träger für den
Großteil unserer Sachen zu buchen, die waren auch sehr nett.
Danach haben wir noch unerwartet einige Tage in Kathmandu verbracht,
deren Planung (mit Wünschen von uns) auch Himalayan master sehr
zufriedenstellend übernommen hat!
Ich kann nur sagen, dass ich mir meine nächste Erfahrung im Himalaya nicht
ohne Himalayan Masters vorstellen kann.

I had a great experience doing the Langtang Valley trek with Himalayan
Masters!
Planning and communicating with Sandip, the owner, and his team was very
easy and reliable from the beginning to the end and they did a fantastic job
in answering all my questions and providing me with support when needed.
The trek itself was an incredible experience and I felt safe and well taken care
of the entire time.

FAQs
Can I go camping in Langtang Valley trek?
Since Langtang today is quite an old and popular trekking route in Nepal, you can
easily find hotels and tea houses that are way more comfortable than the campaign
trek. But, if you feel like going for a camping trek, it can easily be arranged. However,
the camping trek will be a bit more expensive as you need to carry extra equipment
and more porters
