Langtang Valley Trek

Langtang

Langtang is a region in the Himalaya of Nepal to the north of the Kathmandu Valley and bordering Tibet. The Langtang Valley is also known as the “Valley of Glaciers” where the mountains are seen soaring towards the sky. The Langtang Valley Trek is a combination of spectacular views of the remote Langtang Valley in the Langtang National Park with mountain lakes and the beautiful Kyanjin Gompa. Langtang Park is home to a diverse species of birds, red pandas, yaks, monkeys, musk deer, pika and mountain goats along with our national bird- Danphe which you might encounter during the trek. The cultural heritage is another highlight that goes well with this spectacular trek.
