Langtang valley trek feels like a fresh deep breathe after a long busy and hectic day. The roads from the
capital winds to the green hills, suddenly the mountains appear large and vast. On the trails you will
enjoy the prayer wheels and mani walls, share the deep cultures of Tamang community with smiley faces
eargerly to welcome you. Moving along the river as it climbs to a wide, open valley where the sky seems
closer and bigger.
Nights are simple: cold weather, tired legs, warm stoves, heartly local foods and stories from the
day. Mornings are early:birds sounds with crisp air and the steady rhythm of your boots and local
breakfast as a fuel for a day. The valley itself has a breathtaking view, surrounded by glaciers and peaks.
It’s not the longest trek, but it’s one you will carry with you for years….
