Langtang Treks

The Langtang region extends north of Kathmandu as far as the Tibet border. It is the third most popular trekking area in Nepal. The people of the region are known as Tamang, similar to Tibetans in religion, traditions, clothing and culture. The Langtang area offers a variety of beautiful trekking routes, from moderate trekking to more challenging hikes. The terrain is ever changing as you ascend through the narrow valleys of the lower mountains. A treat for bird watchers and animal lovers alike, the lush forests of rhododendron, oak, alder and pine are home to a multitude of bird species. Some of the rare species of animal you might catch a glimpse of are the wild dog, red panda, Himalayan black bear, Rhesus monkey and musk dear. The higher mountains treat you to beautiful alpine forests and glacial landscapes with panoramic mountain views.

Rich in culture like all treks in Nepal, the Tibetan Buddhist influence is clearly on display in the area, with its ornate chortens, mani walls and gompas. Gosainkund Lake lies at 4,380 meters - this holy lake attracts thousands of pilgrims each year for the August full moon.
