    Transportation

    We would like to inform all interested travelers about the transportation from Kathmandu to Syabrubesi. You have two options for this,

    Firstly, you can take the public bus from Kathmandu to Syabrubesi. The advantage of this option is that you can interact with the local people on the bus and enjoy the pure Nepali way of traveling.

    The second option is that you can choose to travel via a private vehicle, i.e., a jeep. The jeep ride will be comfortable.

    The cost for the public bus includes the total cost, and the cost for the private vehicle excludes the total cost.

    Route Overview

    Let us now look at the routes you’ll take for the Langtang Valley Trek. The trip begins with your arrival at the Tribhuvan International Airport. After getting enough rest at the hotel, we’ll drive from Kathmandu to Syabru Besi to begin the hike. The first hike will commence from Syabru Besi to Lama Hotel where we’ll cross villages of Bamboo and then Ramche. Following the Langtang River, we’ll hike to Lama Hotel and then Mundu.

    The route leading to Mundu is interesting as on that day we’ll be passing through Ghoda Tabela, farmhouses for ponies and donkeys. Moreover, on the journey, you’ll also get to see yak pasturelands and sever Tamang settlements. Continuing the route, we’ll reach Mundu. Traversing the same path, we’ll hike to Kyanjing Gompa, and then take a short hike to Chorkari Ri which is a popular viewpoint. Then, we shall retrace the route back to Kyanjin Gompa, Lama Hotel, and eventually ending the hike at Syabru Besi. Then, we’ll take a drive back to Kathmandu, ending the wonderful trek.

    Langtang Valley Trek Difficulty

    This is a trip for those who enjoy a moderate hike. The courses ascend gradually and help the trekkers adjust to the altitude quickly. Furthermore, our expert guides and leaders will always be there to accompany you and ensure you feel supported as you hike. The ten-day expedition will take you to the highest point of our trek in Chorkari Ri at 5050 meters. Chorkari Ri is an excellent point to see the Langtang range and its endearing mountains really close.

    Despite the Langtang Valley being a moderate hike, we suggest you dedicate time to personal fitness and exercise. You will easily walk for 4-5 hours daily on high elevations. So to ensure you have the best experience on this trek, getting pre-trained for at least a month before your actual trek is best!

    Best time

    Let us know to discuss the most suitable time to trek to the Langtang Valley. If you want to book a trek in this region, you should look for any dates in March-May or September- November.

    These seasons provide the most scenic views. The spring and autumn seasons are best for clear skies, greenery, and shades of red and pink scattered around the flora.

    The monsoon and winter seasons are not recommended.  During the monsoon season, the roads are wet and prone to landslides. Likewise, the temperature will drop dramatically in the winter season, which may increase the chances of falling sick.

      • Superb 5-Star Trekking Experience

        Dec 2022 | From Tripadvisor

        I recently completed the Langtang Valley Trek with the help of Nepal Hiking Team. From my initial communications with Ganga, I could tell that I was in good hands. He was very responsive and listened carefully to the specific requests I had.

        My guide for the trek was Dhurba. He did a superb 5-star job, allowing me to keep my own pace but also keeping me on schedule. He was very knowledgeable and was able to provide insights on the trek I would have missed out on had I chosen to truly trek solo. Towards the end of the trek I did not feel well from the altitude, and Dhurba made sure I had whatever I needed to feel better. He truly cared and wanted to see me succeed. I felt that I not only had a guide, but made a friend along the way.

        Even though it was not initially part of our coordinated plans, Ganga was so kind as to arrange a driver to transport me from my hotel to the airport when I left Kathmandu free of charge.

        I would not hesitate to recommend Nepal Hiking Team to anyone looking to explore Nepal and the surrounding area. Great job, gentlemen. Thanks again to Ganga and Dhurba!

      • Amazing Langtang Trek

        Thank you Nepal Hiking Team for such a beautiful trekking experience. It was a pleasure to deal with Mr. Ganga at Nepal Hiking Team. Over the last conversations with the tram, planning for Langtang Valley Trek has been really easy thanks to their highly responsive emails. Every small detail was paid attention to. I was able to trek in a very short notice and thanks to the team for making everything possible. My Langtang Valley Trek was handled with amazing flexibility and my guide was just as awesome. From the views to the hospitality, everything was the best.

        They treated me amazingly the whole trek and whenever I had some requirements, they tended to it immediately. I strongly recommend their service to anyone looking forward to trekking in Nepal. It is very important to have a reliable service provider while trekking in a different country. With Nepal Hiking Team you couldn’t ask for more.

      • Great Experience - Highly appreciated

        The Valley is pretty isolated, and this was one of the things that I noticed about the trek. The valley and the villages were quite far from each other, and that was the best part of the trek for me because it gave me a chance to enjoy the long drive and hikes through lovely forests and rivers and go over exhilarating suspension brides! The Langtang Valley Trek is a beautiful trekking experience, and I had the best time trekking in the valley, watching the views of the mountains and becoming a part of the beauty of the nature that this place has, even if it was for a limited amount of time.

        The natural beauty of this place is the best part of the trek, and also, the visit to the cheese factory was also pretty exciting! I loved tasting the cheese, and they even gave me complimentary blocks of cheese to take home, it was quite lovely! The whole trekking journey is the best thing and I absolutely enjoyed the whole scenarios during the trek. The hike to the monastery was quite attractive, and the rivers and the little streams that we came across the trek were all lovely to see and experience. Langtang Valley Trek was made even more amazing by our guide, Baban, who was a charm to be around and he helped us out a lot throughout the trek. It was all done in a fair and reasonable price as well, and I appreciate it very much!

      • One of the best hike in my life

        I was picked up from the airport by Rajendra, the guide, and was then taken to my hotel, from where I started my trekking journey of the Langtang Valley. It was beautiful, and I really enjoyed it. The most stood-out aspect of the trek for me would definitely be the culture and the lifestyle of the people in that area. I mean, the natural beauty itself is quite wonderful and amazing, but, for me personally, I loved the whole experience of the people and talking to them and hearing their stories. The visit to the monastery there was enlightening and I learned a lot about the cultural aspects of the valley. I liked their hassle free day to day life and it’s a proven commodity for me really, that this is the kind of hassle free life is the one I would like to lead once I am old and retired! A life in valley among the Himalayas would be the ultimate dream-come-true for me! But, for now, I was satisfied with just visiting this paradise. The very atmosphere at the valley and the trekking journey has a life of its own, and its tranquility is spell-binding. Nepal Hiking Team, as expected, delivered the best services to me, and all of the proper arrangements were all done brilliantly. They did a wonderful job with the trekking journey and I enjoyed every moment of it!

      • Couldn't be Better

        I had Nepal Hiking Team make a customized itinerary for me for the Langtang Valley Trek. And everything was done all in accordance to my convenience, and that is one of the many features I loved about Nepal Hiking Team. The guide that provided to me for my Langtang Valley trip was also professional and helped us along the trek very much. Everything was done very smoothly, without much hassle and bother. I did not have to worry about anything; the people from Nepal Hiking Team took care of everything, like the accommodations, and the porters and the equipment. As a result, I was left to enjoy the trek and its sceneries without having to constantly worry about anything else. The trek itself was amazing, and I loved every moment of it.

        I made many acquaintances throughout the trek, with the local trekkers as well and other trekkers along the journey, and it was simply wonderful. This is truly a once in a life time opportunity to learn about exotic lands and the valley of Langtang definitely takes the cake on this one! The beautiful views of the mountains are utterly ravishing and the natural beauty of the place is just wow! I don’t even know how to describe it in words really! The vast pasturelands and the sight of horses and yaks just grazing on those serene grasslands is something that’s straight out of a wonderful Studio Ghibli movie, it was so pretty! The whole place reminded me of “Howl’s Moving Castle”; it was just so reminiscing of the scene between How l and Sophie with the daffodil flowers swaying gently in the wind. Langtang Valley Trek made me feel like I was in that feature film! So, yeah, definitely check the place out and Nepal Hiking Team definitely has my approval from the trek because of their consistency and the services that they provided.

      • Trip of life time

        I chose to do the Langtang Valley Trek in Nepal because it was recommended to me, and because I supposed it would be very beautiful. And I was absolutely proven right! The whole trekking journey is filled to the brim with lovely sights of nature, wonderful tranquil visits to the lakes and the monastery and various temples along the trails. The natural beauty is phenomenal and it all comes together perfectly with the wonderful views of the mountains in the distance. The mountains are so beautiful, and the compliment it gets from the wonderful environment at Langtang is breath-taking! I really enjoyed my trekking journey with Nepal Hiking Team in the Langtang Valley, and I loved learning about the various cultures and the stories behind the temples, it was all very fascinating. I liked my services of the provided accommodations as well, and the people from the travel company were all very helpful and extremely co-operative. Smoothly done Nepal Hiking Team!
