Description:
Langtang is one of the least trekked,
yet one of the most beautiful, trekking
areas. Located north of the Kathmandu
Valley, the route goes through traditional
and ethnic villages and untouched forests
on the way to the peaks of Langtang-Lirung.
This trek reveals the contrast between
the Hindu culture of the Kathmandu Valley
and the Buddhist culture to the immediate
north of Kathmandu. The highlights of
this tour include the visit to Langtang
Valley, Kyanjin Gompa (monastery) and
the Lirung Glacier. One can also climb
the Lang Sisa Peak and visit the Gosainkunda
Lake.
