Overview – Langtang Valley Trek
The Langtang Valley Trek is a breathtaking journey through the heart of Nepal’s first Himalayan national park. Often referred to as the “Valley of Glaciers”, this moderate-level trek offers an ideal mix of natural beauty, cultural exploration, and panoramic mountain views—all within a week-long itinerary.
This trekking route leads you through dense rhododendron forests, picturesque Tamang villages, alpine meadows, and dramatic landscapes shaped by glaciers and towering peaks.

From the warmth of local hospitality to the thrill of walking beneath Himalayan giants, Langtang offers an unforgettable trekking experience that is less crowded than the Everest or Annapurna regions.
