When people come to Nepal for trekking, they usually look first to the Annapurna or Everest regions.

However, they overlook the Langtang region, nestled in the middle of the two ones. The Langtang region is underrated and quite unpopulated in terms of other trekkers.

Our Langtang Valley Trek takes you into the heart of the Langtang region, to Buddhist monasteries and through lush forests.

The isolated valley, high in elevation, is the Tamang people’s home, a kind-hearted group whose ancestors came from Tibet many years ago.
Tibetan Buddhism plays a big role in their way of life andsigns of it (mani walls, prayer flags, chhortens, etc.) They are prevalent along the path, adding much charm to the journey.
