Langtang Valley Trek Overview
The Langtang Valley Trek is a spectacular Himalayan journey, offering incredible mountain scenery, rich cultural experiences, and remarkable biodiversity, all within easy reach of Kathmandu. This trek provides an immersive experience among the indigenous Tamang people, whose Tibetan-influenced traditions make the journey as culturally enriching as it is visually stunning. As you venture through Langtang National Park, you traverse lush forests, alpine meadows, and glacial moraines, encountering rare wildlife, such as the elusive red panda.
The trek begins with a scenic drive from Kathmandu to Syabrubesi, the trailhead of Langtang Valley. Following the Langtang River, the journey ascends gradually through dense rhododendron forests and traditional villages before transitioning into alpine terrain and glacier-fed valleys.
At Kyanjin Gompa (3,870 m), the trek reaches its cultural and scenic pinnacle, where you can explore ancient monasteries, cheese factories, and panoramic viewpoints. An optional hike to Tserko Ri (5,000 m) rewards you with breathtaking vistas of Langtang Lirung, Dorje Lakpa, and other Himalayan giants.
Among the trek’s key highlights is Kyanjin Ri, soaring to 4,773 m. From this vantage point, along with the surrounding glaciers, the terrain creates a distinctive corridor that facilitates species migration between the lower hills and the towering Himalayan peaks. This unique landscape not only showcases the raw beauty and biodiversity of Langtang National Park but also reflects the region’s remarkable recovery and rebuilding following the 2015 earthquake.
The return journey unfolds with fresh perspectives of landscapes you’ve come to love, making the Langtang Trek a perfect blend of natural wonder, cultural immersion, and personal achievement. Whether you’re drawn by the call of the mountains or the serene rhythm of valley life, this trek promises a truly enriching Himalayan experience.
Note
To ensure everything runs smoothly, we suggest arriving in Kathmandu by 3 p.m. at least one day before your trek begins. This gives time for any last-minute adjustments.
This trek includes public bus transport, but a private jeep can be rented for extra comfort at an additional cost.

Day to Day Itinerary
Drive from Kathmandu (1400m / 4,393ft) to Syabrubesi (1,503m / 4,655ft)
After early morning breakfast, the drive to Syabrubesi begins. We head north out of Kathmandu. During the journey, you can catch fantastic views of rivers, terraced fields, small villages, and snow-capped mountains.
The road takes you to a small town - Dhunche. While on the road that follows Trishuli River banks, you will catch glimpses of Ganesh Himal (7,422 m / 24,350 ft). From Dhunche, we continue the drive until we reach Syabrubesi. You can explore this town for a while but do not forget to experience the riverside hot spring.
Trek From Syabrubesi (1,503m / 4,655ft) to Lama Hotel (2,470m / 8,103ft)
We begin our trek from Syabrubesi, following the Bhote Kosi and Langtang Rivers, passing through fertile jungles, terraced fields, and rural settlements rich in bamboo and birch groves. You might spot rare wildlife like the red panda along the path. After a while, the trek ascends gently to Rimche (2,400m / 7,874ft) through dense bamboo fields alongside the banks of Langtang River. We continue on our route until we reach Lama Hotel, the destination for the day.
Trek from Lama Hotel (2,470m / 8,103ft) to Langtang village (3,430m / 11,255ft)
We begin our day with an early morning breakfast and start trekking alongside a river through the lush landscape, climbing upward through the dense forests. Along the way, you might see the snowy peaks ahead if the weather is favorable. Ultimately, the narrow river valley broadens out at Ghoda Tabela (3,030m). In the past, there was a Tibetan resettlement project running here, but currently, Ghoda Tabela has an army check post where we will register our papers. In addition to the army check post, there are a few lodges here.
As we trek further, we will come across Chyamki village (3,230m), a small settlement, and walk past Chortens, water mills, mani walls, and prayer wheels, which signals we are nearing Langtang Village. We continue past prayer wheels driven by flowing water and prayer flags to scenic Langtang, a large settlement of mostly Tamang people.
Trek from Langtang village (3,430m / 11,255ft) to Kyanjin Gompa (3,865m / 12,675ft)
The trek today will be short and easy. We will pass by many small plateaus, big mani walls, yak pastures, small villages, and meadows. Since we will be gaining elevation, we trek slowly so that our bodies can acclimatize. After hiking for a while, we will come across water mills, prayer wheels, sacred mounds of rocks with inscriptions carved on them. It signals that we have reached the ancient monastery - Kyanjin Gompa (3,830m / 12,565 ft). Kyanjin Gompa lies surrounded by the Himalayas, and from here, we get stunning views of several snow-capped peaks.
Exploration day at Kyanjin Gompa
Today is our rest day to acclimatize and explore this beautiful Langtang region. The Langtang valley has so much to offer for trekkers. Higher elevation means you will be getting stunning views of the Himalayas ranges and glaciers.
You will be visiting Kyanjin Gompa and observing monks offering their prayers. The cheese factory would also be another interesting site to visit. We can also hike to Langshisa Kharka and the viewpoint of Tserko Ri (5,450m/17,880ft) - the highest point of this trek. Tserko Ri is the perfect viewpoint to admire peaks like Langtang Lirung (7,227m), Langtang II (6,586m), and many more. Yet another viewpoint - Kyanjin Ri (4,773m / 15,655 ft) provides majestic views of the Langtang range. As the sun begins to set, we will return to Kyanjin Gompa for the night.
Trek from Kyanjin Gompa (3,865m / 12,675ft) to Lama Hotel (2,470m / 8,103ft)
We will leave Kyangjin Gompa, admiring the last glimpse of the beautiful mountains standing with pride and glory. But it is time for us to retrace the previous route we took to Langtang Village, and we will stop at Ghoda Tabela for lunch. The army check post at Ghoda Tabela will also register our exit. After a leisurely lunch, we continue down through the dense river valley forests to Lama Hotel, where we will be staying for the night.
Trek from Lama Hotel (2,470m / 8,103ft) to Syabrubesi (1,420m / 4,655ft)
Today being the final trekking day, we head to Syabrubesi to drive back to Kathmandu. We will be walking along the Langtang River, heading downwards to the beautiful river valley. As you descend through bamboo and birch forests, you will see amazing landscapes and cross the Langtang and Bhote Koshi rivers to reach Syabrubesi. This marks the end of our trekking journey. The next day we will be driving back to Kathmandu.
Drive from Syabrubesi (1,420m / 4,655ft) to Kathmandu (1400m / 4,393ft)
We will drive from Syabrubensi to Kathmandu, which will take about seven to nine hours. This drive begins early in the morning. During this drive, you will be getting scenic views of the Trishuli River valley as we head south from the hills. Along the way, you will see terraced farmlands, meadows, and hopefully final glimpses of the snow-capped mountains. Once we arrive in Kathmandu, we will drop you at your hotel.
