Getting There

  • Hiking

    From any location in Langtang Valley, make your way to the village of Kyanjin Gompa, which serves as the main base for trekking to Langtang Peak. The trek to Kyanjin Gompa typically takes around 2-3 hours from Lama Hotel, depending on your pace and the trail conditions. Once you arrive in Kyanjin Gompa, you can find local lodges for accommodation. The trail is well-marked, and you will pass through beautiful forests and along the Langtang River.

  • Trekking

    From Kyanjin Gompa, head towards the Langtang Glacier. The trail is steep and can be challenging, but it's well-trodden. The trek will take approximately 4-5 hours. Make sure to carry enough water and snacks, as there are limited facilities along the way. As you approach the glacier, you will enjoy stunning views of Langtang Lirung and surrounding peaks.

  • Summit Push

    Once you reach the glacier, the route to the summit of Langtang Peak will require some scrambling and possibly the use of basic climbing gear (such as crampons and an ice axe). It’s recommended to hire a local guide who is familiar with the area and can assist you with navigation and safety. The summit push typically takes an additional 5-6 hours from the glacier. Ensure that you start early in the day to allow enough time for the return journey.
