Description

Discover the beautiful Langtang area in Nepal with this enticing 15-day trekking program. This trip combines wilderness and amazing sights with local culture and tradition. This is an ideal program for people with a moderate level of experience.

To begin this program, we will meet you at the Kathmandu International Airport. We will then take a full day to visit the wonders of Kathmandu, including its World Heritage Sites. Next day, we will drive to Sundarijal to begin our trekking experience. This point is also known as the holy route the Hindu people follow to the holy Lake Gosaikunda, via the Gosainkunda pass (4,610 m). An exceptional point of our journey!

Some of these Sherpa villages are: Golphu BanjyangTharepati, Tamang, Langtang and Kyangjin. All of these stand in dramatic, natural settings with impressive views of the surrounding peaks like Langtang Lirung, Ganjala, Tserko ri, Langsisa ri and others.

This is a super beautiful trek in spring and in winter! Loved it.

Excellent trip.

I recommend this trip!

Our guide Dr Flemming was excellent. He went above and beyond what we expected. We felt very safe and well trained to practice our climbing. Location was perfect and even though rain had been forecasted, they worked with us to make sure we could climb safely.

I had an enlightening day with Roger, the experience has increased my desire to learn more about rock climbing and commit time to mountaineering and absolute pleasure worth every minute of my time and money.
