Langtang Valley Trek To Kyanjin Gompa

Langtang valley framed by the spectacular snow clad peaks on backdrop of towering mountains marvels with the heavenly beauty compilation rich flora& fauna, eye catching glimpses of waterfalls tumbling from the top of the hill, fiery rivers with hard waves and splashing sounds perfectly matched with the adorable culture, tradition, religion of the highly respected Tamang community with their unwavering passion and respect for their culture and religion as well as the never dying demeanor.

The less trodden trail of the Langtang valley that could be easily accessed from the Kathmandu driving on windy and bumpy road of the mountainous roads where bus jumps frequently due to potholes on the roads takes on the amazing valley which is like natural Pandora box that tames the magical beauty of the alpine terrain, rustic villages, swinging bridges above the thunderous gorges, yak pasture waiting to unfurl for the adventurer, trekkers, nature lovers.

Apart from the natural beauty that ignites the ecstasy, zeal and energy for the nature lovers like natural elixir, Langtang valley trek with Kyanjing immerses the trekkers on the rich culture, religion ingrained to Tibetan Buddhism exploring the monasteries, stupas, chortens draped with fluttering prayer flags spreading the message of peace and harmony.

Day 1
Arrival in Kathmandu Overnight in hotel (1,300m)

A Lantang Ri Trekking & Expedition representative will greet you at the airport and transfer you to your hotel. When you are ready you will be collected from your hotel lobby and driven to our Thamel office where you will be formally introduced to your trekking guide. We will go through all your trek itinerary and arrangements with you to ensure every detail is in place. We will also ask for your passport, extra passport photographs, travel insurance and any other details so that we can organize any permits required for your trek in the Langtang National Park.
Day 2
Drive to Syabrubesi Overnight in trekking lodge (1,460m)

The drive from Kathmandu to Syabrubesi will take about eight hours. You head out of Kathmandu on the highway to Pokhara however you will soon exit the highway through a place called Galchhi and head north along the banks of Trishuli River. The road then heads up into the Himalayan foothills and winds its way through many valleys to reach the busy little town of Dhunche. Here your guide will go to the National Park entrance checkpoint and have your permits checked and stamped to proceed further north into the Langtang National Park. As you head further north some of the high ridges you cross will provide your first glimpses of snow-clad Himalayan peaks (Ganesh Himal and the Langtang Range). After another descend down the valley side you will arrive at Syabrubesi a busy trading and trekking town. There are many trekking lodges here serving trekkers heading towards many parts of the Langtang region. There are also a range of small shops where you may purchase some last-minute items for your trek. But make sure you get to bed early and get plenty of restful sleep – tomorrow will be a big day.
Day 3
Syabrubeshi to Lama Hotel Overnight in trekking lodge (2,500m)

The first part of today’s rather long walk is the hardest – so take your time on the climb and the day will get easier. You start by crossing the small bridge above Langtang khola just north of Shabrubeshi and the trail immediately starts ascending. As we walk uphill the beautiful dense forest will accompany you on the way followed by the Langtang River, which we will be crossing several times. After walking 4-5 hours we will stop for lunch in a place called Bamboo. After lunch we start the trek again ascending to Rimche, further continuing towards the Lama Hotel.
Day 4
Lama Hotel to Langtang Village. Overnight in trekking lodge (3,450m)

From Rimche you will follow the original valley-floor trekking trail up the Langtang Valley. Damage to bridges and the trekking trail have all been pretty much repaired and so the walking on this and subsequent days will be much easier than yesterday. The trail takes you through rhododendron and pine forest for around three hours to reach Ghoda Tabela where you will stop for lunch. The trail then continues on and reaches the site of Langtang Village, which was destroyed in the Earthquake of 2015, but the village has been rebuilt again just by the side of previous langtang village. Your guide will say a prayer for all those that perished and you may also wish to add your prayers and thoughts. You are now in the middle of the glorious Langtang Valley and likely feel humbled by the size and power of the mountains towering above you on both sides of the valley. This is a spectacular location.
Day 5
Langtang valley to Kyanjin Gompa Overnight in trekking lodge (3,817m)

After breakfast, we leave Langtang village trekking on the gradual uphill trail on slow pace taking time to acclimitize to reach Kyanjing Gompa, a beautiful village surrounded by alluring snowy peaks including Kyanjing Ri and Tserko Ri. During the trekking, we pass through the green grassland used for Yak grazing, on the lap of spectacular mountains and also cross other small villages Mondoo and Singdum to arrive at beautiful village Kyanjing for an overnight stay after almost 5 hours journey. We could explore the Kyanjing monastery and Cheese factory where cheese from Yak milk has been made on the traditional method.
Day 6
Explore around Kyanjin Gompa and climb to Tsergo Ri Overnight in trekking lodge (5,150m)

Today you may rest or explore the valley and riverbeds around Kyanjin Gompa. If you feel strong and have no symptoms of altitude sickness you might like to take a trek to climb to the top of Tsergo Ri at 5,150m or 19,600 feet altitude. You should take this ascent very slowly as the air is thin and the gradient gets steep. The gentler you are on your legs, lungs and heart the better. You will return back to Kyanjin Gompa with some of the most stunning Himalaya Mountain photos. The view from Tsergo Ri will just capture you and you will not want to leave. Such is the captivating power of the Himalaya Mountains all along the Langtang Valley.
Day 7
Kyanjin Gompa to Lama Hotel Overnight in trekking lodge (2,500m)

Today requires another long walk as we head all the way back to Rimche in just one day – but be assured it is all downhill so you will be fine. You may find yourself getting faster as you go due to the extra oxygen in each lower-altitude breath.
Day 8
Lama Hotel to Syabrubeshi via Sherapagaon and Khangjim Overnight in trekking lodge (1,460m)

Today you retrace the path along the high valley wall trail to Khangjim and then rapidly down to Shabrubeshi. Time to kick the trekking boots off and relax after a good shower.
Day 9
Drive back to Kathmandu Overnight in Hotel (1,300m)

After breakfast we drive back to Kathmandu.
Day 10
Final Day - Flight Home (1,300m)

We will collect you from your hotel lobby in plenty of time to take you to the airport to check-in for your flight. We wish you well for your journey home and hope you will return to Nepal soon to explore another region of our amazing little country.
