As as one of the major
responsibility to be practiced in all the organizations
Langtang Ri Trekking has a strong philosophy of
supporting local people, events and programs. We can
offer our services in Nepal at discounted cost to
promote a charity trip and raise funds as you deem
sufficient for your chosen charity. We can tailor any
program for you from trekking, rafting and mountain
biking to jungle tours, paragliding trips and cultural
programs. Langtang Ri Trekking is big supporters of the
local community & Children. We believe in giving back
something to ensure a promising future for the children
of our country. We support various projects in and
around Kathmandu ,by running our own charity trip
through which we have set up good example in Gorkha &
Kathmandu.
From April 2008, we have managed 55 students to provide
them basic education. 30 of these students are from
remote areas of Gorkha and 20 from Kathmandu Valley .
Our projects support each students education which
includes: tuition fees, school uniforms, examination
fees and stationary. All the students live at home with
their families and attend a school which they feel most
convenient to them.
Involvement in charity treks and tours means you are
contributing to the fund raising programs for the
Education of Children. The profit generated from such
trips will be donated to schools.
We will form a group of different individuals & couples
of common interests in doing such trek & will organize
it in a fixed time. Your are always welcome for the
inquiry regarding the date of trek. We are sorry for
inconvenience but it is the only way to increase & save
the profit .If you have your own group comprising at
least 4 people then we can arrange the program to depart
at any time other than the set dates.
Langtang Ri Trekking, on behalf of Homes Nepal, is very
grateful for your support in the project. For More

Weather conditions and the health of trekkers
can all contribute to changes. The guides and
their Sherpa assistants will try to ensure that
the trip runs according to plan, but please be
prepared to be flexible if necessary.
Experience Required :This Trek is
suitable for keen walkers who are able to walk
for 6 7 hours in a day, with a light rucksack.
Some of the days are quite long, and the walking
feels more strenuous at altitude. Generally the
trail is a good track, but occasionally it will
be uneven and rocky.

accommodated in teahouses whilst on trek. A
teahouse is a local run guesthouse, but
standards vary enormously. In popular areas such
as Everest, teahouses are more like hotels, with
hot water, Western food and private rooms

to provide their own personal clothing and
equipment. Some items of equipment are available
for hire from us as like Sleeping bag and Down
Jacket
