Langtang trek combines the remote
and spectacular valley of Langtang, with the high mountain lake Known
as Gosainkunda and Helambu. You can
see the people and their living culture, the mountains, and the jungles.
The Langtang region was Nepal's first Himalayan national park which
can be accessible by bus, just 8 hours drive. This trek takes us through
numerous Tamang and sherpa villages (Tibetan related peoples), through
high elevation pastures, and finally to the foot of Langtang Lirung
(7234m/23,732’). The result is that the Langtang region is home
to many endangered and rare animals including the bharal sheep, red
panda, wild yak, and the snow leopard, as well as intimate villages
that still live traditionally. Langtang is now one of the few places
in central Nepal where traditional dress, lifestyles, and cultures abound.
Helambu, about 72 kilometers north-east of Kathmandu, is noted for its
scenic grandeur and pleasant climate. The Helambu region, extending
from north of Taramarang to the tree limit of the Gosainkunda Lake and
lower slopes of Jugal Himal, has several highland Tamang and Sherpa
villages, scattered on both sides of the Malemchi Khola.
