Langtang Valley Trek

Langtang Valley Trek is a Perfect short trek leading to travelers closer to the Himalayas. Langtang Valley Trek can be done around the year because of well connected with road excess. Langtang treks are perfect for everyone who is looking for a holiday with their families, children, and friends without involving very high altitudes and difficulties.

Especially, If you are looking for mountain Trekking in Wintertime, then Langtang Trek is the perfect destination 7 to 10-days hike heart of the Langtang Himalayan lap. Langtang Valley Trek is a short and relatively easy trek in Langtang Valley with stunning panoramas of two major Himalayan Ranges, Langtang, and Ganesh. Langtang Valley Trek is in the valley of this very famous and beautiful range around Langtang Himal Range in the central part of the country.

Diverse flora and fauna can also be observed with equally diverse cultures of different ethnic groups on this trek. Langtang Valley Trek also stands out as one of the popular treks in the country, especially due to the hospitality shown in the region. This is the trekking holiday travelers who have short and limited time fully able to fully enjoy the unique culture and great Himalayan peaks.

It is a relatively easy and short trek with Tsergo Ri (a viewpoint at 5033 meters) being the major attraction of the trek. Tsergo Ri offers views of Langtang Lirung (7227 meters), Dorje Lhakpa (6966 meters), Yala Peak (5520 meters), Shishapangma, and many other smaller peaks. Equally breathtaking views of the Ganesh Himal Range can be enjoyed at the beginning of the Langtang Valley Trek.

Langtang Valley Trek starts and passes through villages with terraced fields of paddy, corn, millet, etc (depending upon the season). Slowly it starts to go through the Rhododendron jungles and then on to meadows and pastures with yaks, and at last to the alpine vegetation near Langtang. The change in culture and religion is also on show as the landscape changes, with an increasing number of monasteries and Mane walls as the trek goes higher. At Kyanjin Gomba (the final village at the end of the village), one can really enjoy the beauty of Langtang Valley Trek.

Because of easy accessibility, this trek can be done any time in the year but March and April are the best months, as the flowers bloom at this time of the year, and jungles full of Rhododendron flowers, in particular, are something one shouldn't miss. Although rare to spot, wildlife including migratory birds, deer monkeys, Himalayan Thars, and Himalayan Red Panda can be found in the Langtang valley.

A perfect two treks in Nepal with Visit Himalaya 

Where to even begin...in traveling around the world for the last 8 months, our two-week-long treks (first Langtang Valley, and second Mohare Danda community trek to Poon Hill) were hands down the best experiences we have had! From our first email to Himal, to our final sad goodbye to our wonderful guide Tek Babu Gurung, the whole experience was perfect.

Himal was always extremely quick to respond to emails and answer questions. When he knew how nervous I was about trekking (I have a fear of heights) he even waited until we were in Kathmandu and sent a car to pick us up from our hotel and bring us to his office so we could talk in person and address my concerns more easily! We never once felt pressured to book anything, and he was very understanding and easy to talk to. The prices were also very reasonable, and the company treated their guides and porters well, which was important to us when selecting a company. So we happily booked our first trek to the Langtang Valley. Our guide Tek, and Porter Purna were absolutely wonderful.

They were the most kind and positive people and were the reason we had such a good time on the trek. We were supplied with endless snacks, fruit, masala tea, and delicious meals. Tek always made sure we stayed at the best and most comfortable tea house, that we were hiking at a pace we could manage, and took the time to enjoy it and take plenty of pictures. He also taught us so much about the area, the different mountains, and his culture. The whole trek went perfectly, and we had such fun relaxing and playing card games with them in the evenings, and enjoying the beautiful scenery during the day. In fact, we had such a wonderful time that we immediately booked a second trek with Tek to Mohare Danda and Poon Hill.

Once again, everything from the private transport to the tea houses, to the local porter we hired went perfectly. I can’t overstate what a wonderful guide Tek is. We felt so well taken care of and enjoyed every minute of our two weeks with him. We were so sad to say goodbye to our friend, and will absolutely be coming back in the future for more treks with him. I cannot recommend this company highly enough! Thank you for a wonderful introduction to Nepal! December - 2018.

Langtang Valley Trek

We used Visit Himalaya Treks on the recommendation of friends who had worked with them a year earlier. From the start, Himal was very helpful & responsive to any questions or requests we had. Our guide, Ngima, and porter, Sambhu, were both very friendly & helpful throughout the trek, and despite a few little hiccups (dodgy knees & bad colds for a couple of days!), we had a good time. We certainly highly recommend Himal & his team at Visit Himalaya treks. April – 2018.

Langtang valley 10 days hike with Visit Himalaya Treks

Hi Himal & Team. Thank you for well organizing our Langtang Trek. We enjoyed so much our 2oth wedding anniversary trip.  Himal and the team at Visit Himalaya Treks are first-class individuals and run a first-class trekking company. Everything was great from the lodging to the guides to the beauty of the magnificent white sheen of the Himalayan mountain tops.

The best thing is that we always feel taken care of and looked after, which gives us peace of mind and the luxury of complete mental relaxation. We had a wonderful time for our 20th wedding anniversary (VHT even surprised us with a cake and party that night. Awesome!). Highly recommend this company for trekking and sightseeing. We miss you guys! October - 2016.

Langtang Valley Trek - 2010

I had a very great walk really lucky with the weather and felt comfortable the whole trip to 8 days Langtang Valley trek. My Guide Rajan takes care of meals/accommodation, and Himal (Visit Himalaya Treks) organizes very professionally. I was happy that could all be organized on such short notice. I would be happy to recommend you to others...I don’t know when I will be back in Nepal and I catch them again. Thank you very much, Himal for all the great arrangements.  16th Jun, 2010.

FAQs

We always try to be flexible in designing the trip itinerary for our client’s needs. However, if you are not convinced with our suggested itinerary then of course you are always welcome to customize or change the trip itinerary.

A holiday should never be about making it to the final point quickly. Along your trek, we can add days at your request with additional costs to cover guides, porters, accommodation, and food.

An average physical fitness should be maintained before booking a trek. Any sort of illness or recent medical problems should be mentioned while booking a trip. Most of our itineraries are prepared to give you maximum time to acclimatize and pace-setting on the treks would be done according to your convenience. If you are taking regular medication then tell us before the trip starts which would be better for us to give you the physical feedback.

Our main concern is your safety. We never compromised on your safety during the Trekking and all our guides are properly trained and well equipped to take care of our client's safety in even the remote areas as well.

There would be always back support in case of an emergency like severe high-altitude sickness or accident (which is least expected), you will be sent to the nearest hospital if possible otherwise rescued by a helicopter and sent to the hospital as soon as possible. Since you are entirely liable for all the expenses incurred for the use of such emergency services, please make sure that your travel insurance covers both- medical and emergency evacuation costs.

It is not a problem at all because in a mountain most of the tea houses/lodges serve vegetarian food as well and our guide will take care of the time cooking and on a camping trek, our cook and staff will care all about the food section.

Most of the lodges in the mountains are the basic ones like a guest house or tea house style. In a few major towns or settlements, where are the possibilities we provide you with the best accommodation? Also, it depends upon the service packages.

Lately, most of the teahouses have electricity supply even with solar panels. So, charging your gadgets is not a problem at all. But charging your battery you should have to pay an additional fee (US$ 1 to 3 approx. per hour.), to get your gadgets to be charged.

Now a day’s most of the major village has a cell phone network connection. However, in a remote area where cell phones do not work, and even if there is no other communication access then we send satellite phones along with our guide so you can always be in touch with your family.

Yes, either you can store the same hotel as you stayed or we can store your goods with us safely in our office free of cost.

The luggage must not exceed up to 20 kilos. A trekking helper (porter) carries baggage of less than 15 kilos. This bag can be received at the end of each day’s trek and you should carry the rest of the weight as a day bag with all your money and valuables inside it.

This is a difficult thing to gauge. We have seen everything from USD 25 to USD 900 per person for guides and porters. Tipping is not required, but a small gesture of thanks to your guides and local porters. The Level of the tip should reflect the level of satisfaction from and personal involvement with your guide. However, we recommend you spend a minimum of 10% of your total trip cost for tipping the entire local staff.
