Treks in theLangtang Valley

The Langtang region is synonym to the mystical and the mythical. From high-altitude lakes of deep aesthetic value to adventurous passes and green lush forests of diversified flora and fauna, the region is overwhelmingly nature's paradise. Multi-ethnic communities from Tamangs to Tibetans have shaped a serene fairyland defined by superlative hospitality and the best of nature at every turn.

The 2015 earthquake tolled heavy damage on this area. The Langtang Lirung glacier outbreak washed away the beautiful Langtang Valley. Yet the intrepid people of this region are rising again, carrying a mysterious power to remain happy even in the face of disaster. These valuable lessons in resilience are worth the journey alone.
