Langtang Valley Trek also popularly known as the Valley of Glaciers treks on the journey to the wilderness Himalayas making it one of the wildest trekking in Nepal. Langtang is one of the closest places to Kathmandu Valley where you could get to see huge snow-capped mountains and gorgeous glaciers. Langtang Valley is located only 19 miles from Kathmandu on the north. A few hours of drive from Kathmandu will take you to the beautiful Langtang region. The whole Langtang valley is surrounded by Mount Langtang Lirung (7246m) which offers pine forest, rugged rock, swift mountain streams and snow-capped peaks.
Though the 7 Days Langtang Valley Trek is very close to Kathmandu, the Langtang Region is as wild as any Tibetan highlands with peaceful rural scenery. The starting point of the trekking will be Syabrubensi. From here we will follow the Langtang River to the east until we get to Kyanjin Gompa (3,880) with the overnight stay at one of the hotels here. Heading up a gentle slope, we pass along the dramatic ridges through local villages inhabited by Tibetans, Tamang and Sherpa people. Then we will come across the lush forest of Rhododendrons and oaks. Once we arrive in the Langtang valley we will find flapping prayer flags in the main tracks, brightly painted shortens and Mani walls where yak herders welcome you to the land of these high mountain people. Langtang Lirung, Langshisa, Ganja la Peaks are the center of attraction that we can see during the trek to 7 days Langtang Valley trekking trip.
We will also visit the local yak cheese factory as well as the view of the glaciers, which is also a gateway to Tibet. Then we return back to Syabru village.
