Starting with a bus ride to Syabrubesi, you get an overnight to take in the spectacular lower Langtang valley with glimpses of the mountains.

The first day of trekking is probably difficult, with steep sections that seem to never end, but the scenery and wildlife provide an excellent distraction.

The second day is also fairly hard going, but as the valley opens out giving way to stunning views of the peaks above you. On the third day, you leave your pack behind and head up to the magical monastery town where you can get authentic Nepali food in any one of the cafes and hostels, and there's a cheese factory too!

Day four sees you retracing your steps of day two most of the way, with a slight diversion on to the opposite side of the valley. The final day's walk retraces the day one and can be tough on the knees as you are fighting the pull of gravity that draws you down the valley.

Best season for the trek in Langtang valley?

Winter

December to February are the coldest months to trek, with the shortest days and the fewest people. There is often a lot of snow on the ground, especially above Thulo Syabru, Ghoda Tabela, and getting to Destination can sometimes be very difficult or impossible. Many of the higher villages are abandoned for the winter.

Spring

March, April, and May are some of the busier months and for good reason. The days are getting warmer, the weather is mostly stable and the  Trekking and climbing season is in full swing. It really is an amazing sight from  Langtang Valley, Kyangin-Ri, Tserko-Ri, and Langtang Valley. In the lower valleys, the flowers are blooming on the Rhododendrons and the terraced fields turn green with new shoots of vegetables.

Summer

From June to August the summer monsoons bring rain and snow. There are fewer visitors during these months, although some of the most beautiful, warm, blue-sky days occur now. Usually, by the afternoon, there is a rainstorm or snow higher up.

Autumn

This is the most popular time to visit the Langtang Area. September through November is a time of steady weather patterns, less precipitation, and cleaner air. The lodges are full and everyone is friendly. If you enjoy meeting new friends, want the best chance for great weather and don’t mind an empty, this is the best trekking season.

"Langtang Himal Trek"

I have been trekking in Nepal three times - Nov.2014 Bairav Kunda Trek, March 2016 Poon Hill Trek and Oct. 2016 Langtang Himal Trek - every time with Ramchandra Lamichhane as my guide. Why? I trust him, he is a kind person with empathy and humor, he strengthens my confidence, he is charm and have a good overview - he is competent. If some of my family or best friends want to go for the great experiences in Nepal Mountains, I without any doubt will ask them to contact Ramchandra. He will and he can take you safe to the top and down again.
