Langtang Trekking
Langtang is a narrow
valley sandwiched between snowy peaks to the South and the main
Himalayan range along the northern Tibetan border. This valley
offers stunning views of Mt. Langtang Lirung (7246m), Ganchhenpo
(6388m), and Dorjelakpa (6990m).
This high and isolated region is mostly inhabited by the Tamang
and Sherpa castes whose religious practice, language, and
traditional dress are very similar to Tibetan culture. A trek to
Langtang is an opportunity to explore the typical Tamang
villages, climb small peaks, and view majestic glaciers and
ancient Buddhist monasteries.
You can vary the trek to Langtang by returning to Kathmandu via
Syabru Gaun or Goshainkunda, at 4300m, the destination of
thousands pilgrims during the full moon festival in August.
Climbing a little higher up from Goshainkunda, reveals a series
of mountain peaks ranging from Annapurna to Gaurishankar.
On the other side of the Langtang valley is a small Sherpa
village called Helambu. You can combine your trek to Langtang
with a visit to Helambu either by crossing the Ganjala Pass or
the Lauribina Pass. Starting from
Sundarijal, an hour's drive (by car) from Kathmandu, the trek
heads through Helambu ending at Melamchi Pul Bazaar. This route
passes through typical Sherpa villages, namely: Melamchi Gaun,
Tarkeghyang, and
Shermathang. Yangri danda, a three-hour climb from Tarkeghyang,
offers breath trekking views of the snow-capped mountains. |
