What to expect
It’s an early morning drive to the north-west of Kathmandu. The road trip can be enjoyed with the view of the Himalayas, green hills and terraced farmland from your window. The trail takes us through the villages on winding roads. A downhill drive and we reach Syanbrubesi. 7-9 hours of drive. BLD included.
Trekking alongside the LangtangKhola we walk through some rocky and shrubby paths. We go through a dense Rhododendron forest and come across a long suspension bridge. Cross it and we again walk up and down the hills until we reach Lama Hotel. 6 hours of walk. BLD included.
Langtang Valley Trek
The path takes us through the forests. We climb up the valley and enjoy the view of the LantangLirung (7,234m), DorjeLakpa and Nya Kang Ri. As the valley widens, we move through various villages, each decorated with the prayer flags. These villages have several chortens and water mills. Passing various Tamang villages, we reach Langtang village and rest for the night. 7 hours of walk. BLD included.
Passing through the open grassland and yak pasture we get to witness the wild life grazing. The LangtangLirung on the distance serves as a great backdrop. It will look like one of the portraits you will see in the art exhibition. As it becomes windy and the path becomes rocky, we recommend walking carefully. Kyanjin Gompa lies in the heart of the Langtang region and surrounded by mountains. It also has many prayer wheels, chortens as well as the stone inscription that we can witness. 5 hours of walk. BLD included.
Kyanjin Gompa
The sunrise over the mountains looks beautiful. We take some pictures, and after our breakfast, we head back. It’s a downhill trek all the way to Lama Hotel. Along the way, we pass through the dense Rhododendron forests and stop by various villages. 7 hours of walking. BLD included.
We descend through the hills and forests. The majestic mountains wave us goodbye as we walk away from them. Throughout the trek, we can enjoy the green hills, terraced farmlands, and the open meadows. Syabrubesi is our stop for the day. 6 hours of walk. BLD included.
Kathmandu
Early morning breakfast, and we set out to drive back to Kathmandu. We go through the same winding path, enjoying the views of the distant mountains, hills, and rivers. As the trip is rather long, you might even sleep all the way through. Reaching Kathmandu, you can stroll around the city and do some souvenir shopping. Treat yourself to some of the best Nepali cuisine around. Back at the hotel, you can pack your possessions for your departure for NextDay
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
