The short, sweet Langtang Valley Trek is a Himalayan classic. It is a less-trafficked, but equally stunning alternative to the Everest and Annapurna regions. Considered a sacred area, the Langtang Valley holds countless cultural and natural wonders. Also, Langtang National Park, established in 1976, is Nepal’s first protected Himalayan area, meaning that wildlife is in abundance and species such as the Himalayan black bear, the Himalayan tahr and more are found inside park. Trek through Tamang villages up to the secluded Langtang Valley. Be met with heart-warming hospitality before making a final push to reaching Kyanjin Ri (4773 meters/15,659 feet), where we witness an astonishing 360-degree panorama of over 21 snow-capped peaks.

If you are on a short vacation and still want to have a great experience in the Himalaya, the Langtang Valley Trek is the right choice!
