Trip Overview

Langtang Trek Route is pretty straightforward, with not many divergent trails in between. The route is clearly marked and is filled with various teahouses run by Tamang natives. We begin our journey from the capital city of Kathmandu. On our first day, we will drive northbound, following the mighty Trishuli River. Our drive will last for at least 7-8 hours before reaching Syabrubesi, a small riverside town located at the confluence of the Langtang and Bhotekoshi rivers. We then followed alongside the Langtang River to reach the Lama Hotel. Lama Hotel stands as a small hamlet located in a deep gorge between two rocky cliffs. From here, the flat river basin of Langtang River begins. Our trail then steadily follows through small hamlets like Ghodatabela and Thangshyap before reaching Langtang village at 3430 meters. Right before you enter the village, we pass through the colossal debris of a landslide triggered by a 2015 earthquake in the area. From Langtang, we will have mesmerizing views of the Langtang mountains. The pathway from this village is flattened, and we reach Kyanjin Gompa and Kyanjin Ri 4773m, our final stopover.
