The Langtang Valley Trek 12 Days

  • Trek up into the Langtang valley has to be one of the most rewarding of the short treks available anywhere in Nepal. The east west running valley is the site of some spectacular alpine scenery as well as being a great place to meet the distinctive people of the Tamang community.The valley itself is a rich alpine valley that forms part of the Central Nepal Himalaya, north of Kathmandu it was once one of Nepal’s Hidden Valleys.A journey up into the Langtang Valley to the high glaciers is very special indeed. The region has fewer tourists than either the Annapurna or Everest regions and offers a wilderness experience and an opportunity to experience the culture of the local Tamang people, the main ethnic group. The Tamang people follow a lot of Tibetan practices as only twenty miles separates them from Tibet border. There are some very interesting local settlements and a wide variety of wildlife and bird life along the way. Trekking into the high valley takes you almost to the base of The Nepal Himalaya giving you a “high mountain feel” without the trek being too hard. There is also an extensive glacier system in the valley's upper reaches to be explored
