Is it possible to extend your itinerary?

Yes, you can prolong our itinerary according to your timeframe. You just tell us your desire and we will craft an itinerary based on your requirements.

Are there ATM service on the trail?

Limited ATM facility is available only in Dhunche and Syabrubesi. Further up, you won’t get ATM service. Most of the time in Dhunche and Syabrubesi ATMs may not work due to frequent power cuts. So, we suggest you manage cash before the trek in Kathmandu. You can exchange local currency at Thamel.

Should I need to carry extra money for the trek?

If you book this trek on full board service, all your meals, transports, accommodations, permits, and guides will be included. However, there are some extra expenses that you need to pay yourself while on the trek. Such as cold drinks, alcoholic drinks, and bakery items are not included in your package. Besides, uses of WIFI, hot shower, and battery charging are also not included. Therefore, an additional 15-20 dollars per day is required for the extra expenses if you want to use these services. If you drink beers, bakery items, and cold drinks frequently, you might need more than the given price.

What sorts of foods and accommodations can I get on this trek?

On this trek, tea houses provide foods menu for visitors. If you booked a full board service with us, you will get 3 meals every day that includes Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner with tea or coffee at breakfast. Trekkers can find continental, Chinese and Indian as well as Nepalese dishes that are prepared at the tea houses along the trail. You will be served porridge, muesli, boiled/fried egg, omelets, toast, pancakes, and soups along with tea or coffee for breakfast. For Lunch and dinner, you can order pizza, fried rice, plain rice, fry potatoes, chowmein/spaghetti, pasta/macaroni, or momo. Instead of all these international dishes, you can order local Daal Bhaat for your lunch and even dinner. Daal Bhaat is the common food menu of every Nepalese for lunch and dinner. Regarding the accommodations, twin-sharing common local lodge accommodations will be provided throughout this trek. In most of the places, you will get sharing toilets with other trekkers. Only at Syaburbesi, you will have an attached bathroom with a hot shower running from the tap.

Who will be my guide and porters?

You will be guided by our native local guide and supported by local porters. Your guides are well experienced, knowledgeable, and helpful and were born in the mountain region of Nepal. All our guides are fully trained and certified by the Nepal government. Each of our guides has led this trek more than 10 times with positive feedback from our previous clients. Our guide speaks English well enough and takes care of you every step while on the trek. On this trek, your guide will take all of your responsibility such as accommodations, meals, transport permits, etc. And porters are the heroes of the mountain region trek that is behind the scenes. They transfer your belongings from one place to another destination safely throughout the trip for your comfort and pleasant hike. Thus, we would like to request all our guests to give respect to those heroes who make our trip successful.

What is the maximum elevation of this trek?

The maximum elevation of this trek is 4,773 meters/ 15659 ft at Kyanjin Ri. From Kyanjin Gompa, it takes 2.5 hours to reach the Kyanjin Ri viewpoint. We will pay our visit at this point on the 4th day. Tserko Ri is another viewpoint that offers exceptional views of the mountains and glaciers around. The height of Tserko Ri is 5,000 meters and it takes about 5 hours to reach at the top of Tserko Ri from Kyanjin Gompa. It is suitable for only seasoned hikers.

Do I need to be insured for this trek?

Trekking to Langtang valley doesn’t require an insurance policy. However, we recommend you to be insured before joining this trek for your financial protection in case of any emergencies. It is a moderate-level trek that goes through remote mountain terrain, rivers, and jungles. The excess of transport and hospitals are out of reach. In this region, the fastest option to get to the well-equipped hospital is by helicopter. There is always a risk of natural calamities or health issues while traveling to the mountainous region. So, if you are fully insured all of your medication and helicopter rescue expenses will be covered by your insurance company.

What happened if I get any health problem while on this trek?

Don’t worry; you are with the right hand. We will do everything to save your life if there are any difficulties with you in the mountains. Our native guides are well-trained and authorized by Nepal’s government. They are even trained in first aid medicine and they are eligible for medication in case of an emergency. If you have altitude sickness or any other health issues, you will be certainly taken to the nearby hospital if available. If there aren’t any health posts, you will be transferred to the low elevation as soon as possible. Even more, if your health condition is getting worse your guide will contact our office in Kathmandu and ask for an emergency helicopter rescue. Then after, you will be transferred to the well-equipped hospital in Kathmandu for further treatment. All these rescue and treatment expenses should be covered by your insurance policy. In the case of a natural disaster, you will be taken to a safe place with the help of our guide and porters. If the trails are blocked due to natural calamities your guide will try to find the safest and alternative routes. However, if there isn’t any option to go further up or return to Kathmandu, you will be rescued by helicopter and taken to Kathmandu. Your helicopter evacuation expenses should be covered by your insurance policy.

Which mountains I can see during this trek?

While you are on this trek, you can see Mt. Langtang Lirung (7,234m), Mt. Langtang Ri (7,205m), Mt. Dorje Lakpa (6,966m), Mt. Langshisha Ri (6,427m), Mt. Gangchenpo (6,387m), Mt. Yala Peak (5,520m), Mt. Tsogaka (5,846m), Mt. Kyunga Ri (6,601m), Mt. Yansa Tsenji (6,690m), Mt. Dogpache (6,562m), Mt. Changbu (6,781m), Mt. Loenpo Gang (6,979m). Above mountains can see only from the viewpoint of Kyajin Ri and Tserko Ri.

How fit should I have to be for this trek?

Langtang valley trek is a moderate trek that goes up to the 4,773 meters altitude at Kyanjin Ri. But you will spend overnight at a height of 3,800 meters only. Relatively, this trek is easier than the other treks of Nepal such as Annapurna Base Camp and Everest base camp. Thus, you don’t need to be fit extremely. However, doing some training beforehand is much more beneficial for your enjoyment. We suggest you prepare at least 8 weeks before your trip and do regular morning walks, join the gym, swim, climb upstairs, or do short hiking at least once or twice a week. On this trek, your porters will carry your belongings and you have to carry your personal items only if you hired a porter.

Are there internet, hot shower and charging facilities on the trail?

Langtang valley trek offers all these services at an additional cost. Internet Service: Every teahouse has WIFI and they charge an extra cost of around NRS 200 – 400. From Lama Hotel to Kyanjin Gompa, the WIFI connection is not strong as in Kathmandu. Charging facility: With each and every stop, you will get charging facilities with an additional charge. From the Lama hotel, tea houses have solar power and the price might be a bit higher than in the lower elevations. Charging cost ranges from NRS 150 to 300 per hour. Hot shower: As like in the Everest and Annapurna regions, you can also get a hot shower facility on the Langtang valley trek. At Syabrubesi, local lodges provide running hot showers with attached bathrooms. Above the Syabrubesi, you will get a bucket hot shower at an extra cost. The price of the hot shower ranges from NRS 200 to 500 per shower. If the weather is gloomy all day these services may not be available because in the mountain region power is generated by solar.

Among these, Short Langtang Valley Trek stands out as a captivating journey that combines natural beauty, cultural exploration, and an unforgettable trekking experience. This short trek, spanning around 6 days, takes you through the heart of the Langtang region, revealing stunning landscapes, charming villages, and a glimpse into the local Tamang culture.

The Short Langtang Valley Trek begins in the bustling city of Kathmandu, where trekkers embark on a scenic drive to Syabrubesi. Syabrubesi is the starting point of this journey. As you leave the urban landscape behind and venture into the Langtang National Park, you are greeted by lush forests, cascading waterfalls, and the melodic sound of birdsong. The trail gradually ascends, offering trekkers a chance to acclimatize as they approach higher altitudes.

One of the highlights of the trek is the opportunity to explore the quaint villages that dot the landscape. Ghodatabela, Langtang Village, and Kyanjin Gompa are some of the stops along the way, each offering a unique insight into the local way of life. The Tamang people, an indigenous community of the region, are known for their warm hospitality and rich cultural heritage. Trekkers often have the chance to interact with the locals, learn about traditional practices, and even partake in religious ceremonies.

The trek also grants access to breathtaking viewpoints that showcase the grandeur of the Himalayas. The Kyanjin Ri viewpoint, reached after a challenging ascent, rewards trekkers with panoramic views of snow-capped peaks, including Langtang Lirung, Dorje Lakpa, and Langshisha Ri.

Beyond its natural beauty and cultural encounters, it is also an opportunity for self-discovery and personal challenge. The varying terrain, from dense forests to rocky moraines, tests trekkers’ physical endurance and mental resilience. The altitude adds an extra layer of difficulty, making proper acclimatization and pacing essential for a successful journey.

For those with a passion for flora and fauna, the Langtang National Park offers a chance to spot a variety of wildlife, including the elusive red panda and various species of birds. The region’s diverse ecosystem, ranging from subtropical forests to alpine meadows, provides a habitat for a wide range of species, adding an element of excitement to the trek.

In recent years, efforts have been made to promote sustainable tourism in the Langtang region. Trekkers are encouraged to minimize their environmental impact by following the “Leave No Trace” principles and respecting local customs. Supporting local lodges and businesses also contributes to the economic well-being of the communities along the trail.

In conclusion, our Short Langtang Valley Trek is a compact yet enriching adventure that encapsulates the essence of Nepal’s natural beauty and cultural diversity.
