Overview
Langtang Valley Trek is one of Nepal’s most beautiful and less crowded Himalayan adventures. Often called the “Valley of Glaciers,” this region offers a perfect blend of mountain scenery, rich biodiversity, and authentic Himalayan culture.
Located close to Kathmandu, this trek lies inside Langtang National Park, home to endangered wildlife including Red Panda and diverse alpine flora.
The trek reaches the sacred Kyanjin Gompa and offers optional hikes to:
