Langtang Valley Trek

Langtang is a narrow, high mountain valley sandwiched between the greater Himalaya to the north, and the slightly lower range of snowy peaks to the south. Langtang Lirung 7,246 meters (23,767ft), dominates the northern valley. Langtang was officially designated as Nepal’s first Himalayan National Park in 1976 to preserve Himalayan flora and fauna and Langtang’s unique culture.
The valley is inhabited by the Tamang people whose culture, language, dress and religious practices are more akin to those of the Tibetans than to the traditions of their Nepali cousins in the middle hills. Helambu’s rich Sherpa culture differs from the Sherpa culture of the Everest region, and this gives additional beauty to the Langtang region. Highly revered and sacred Gosainkunda Lake is the center of attraction for all visitors, but mostly for Hindu followers.
