Drive from Kathmandu to Syabru Bensi (1462m/4795ft) Duration: 7 Hours
Syapru Besi - The journey to Langtang Valley starts with a bus ride from Kathmandu to Syabru Bensi. The drive takes about half a day, passing along the Trishuli River, then moving to Dhunche where the Ganesh Himal and lush landscape can be seen. Terraces carved for cultivation are also visible. The roads become rocky in Dhunche and continue this way until reaching Syabru Bensi. Upon arrival, the change in terrain will be noticeable with hills emerging, providing a relaxing view.
Syabru Bensi to Lama Hotel (2500m/8200ft) Duration: 5 Hours
Langtang National Park - After breakfast, the 5-hour hike resumes along the trail of the Bhote Koshi River and Langtang Khola, crossing suspension bridges. The trek passes the landslide zone towards Bamboo (1960m) and then to Ramche (2400m). Forests and beautiful waterfalls accompany the journey. There is a high chance of spotting animals like the Red Panda and Rhesus Monkey. Following the path, the trek arrives at Gumanechok, a hillside settlement where the Lama Hotel is located. Overnight stay will be here.
Lama Hotel to Mundu via Langtang Village (2470m/8103ft) Duration: 6 Hours
Langtang Valley - Departing from the Lama Hotel, the trek continues for approximately 6 hours above the Langtang Khola. Langtang Lirung (7,227m) will welcome trekkers. Taking the steep path leads to Ghoda Tabela (3000m), a farmhouse for horses and donkeys used for transport. Continuing the trek, lodges are passed and a checkpoint is reached. Grasslands with grazing Yaks are visible. Moving on, Tamang households, mills, and Buddhist flags and prayer wheels are seen. After crossing a stream, Langtang Village (3500m) is reached. The hike continues to Mundu for an overnight stay amidst mountains and fresh air.
Langtang Village to Kyanjing Gompa (3798m/12495ft) Duration: 4 Hours
Kyanjin Gompa - After breakfast in the village, the trek proceeds to Sindum and then towards Yamphu. Several bridges are crossed, with the most notable being over the Laja Khola River, formed by glacial ice melt. After crossing the river, the trek ascends to reveal the beautiful Kyanjin Gompa. The ice dramatically flows through the Langtang Lirung, surrounded by mountains, making the trek rewarding.
Day Hike to the Chorkari Ri (5050m/16564ft) Duration: 7 Hours
Kyanjin Gompa- Lama Hotel
Langtang Valley - Today, the trek descends back to the Lama Hotel, taking 5-6 hours. The downhill trail makes the journey surprisingly easy, completing in one day what took two days before. However, the trail can be steep, so caution is advised. On a lighter note, a stop at Langtang Village is recommended to revisit its beauty.
Lama Hotel to Syabru Bensi
Syapru Besi - The journey continues from Lama Hotel to Syabru Bensi. This is another easy downhill trek of about 5-6 hours. Be sure to enjoy the views along the way.
Drive Back to Kathmandu
