Langtang is a narrow valley situated south of the
Tibetan border. It is inhabited by Tibetans and Tamangs,
who share a similar religion, language and clothing
style. Here, mountains rise soaring towards the sky. The
landscapes we cross are extremely varied; rice-
terraces, gigantic rhododendron, pine forest, and in the
highest parts, a rock and shrub wilderness with the
fascinating backdrop of snow capped peaks. The combine
trek (Langtang, Gosaikunda and Helambu) treks offers the
great diversity in both nature and culture. It is
relatively not crowded area. The Langtang valley up to
Kyanjin Gompa is inhabited by Tamang whose religious
practices, language and dress are much more to those of
Tibetans and we walk to the glacier at the foot of
Langtang Peak. Though there are now many commercial
lodges in Langtang village, in another section you can
observe the distinct life style of the original
inhabitants in Langtang village that might be
interesting for you I think.
Due to the lack of education these people are very
backward in civilization. The most part of the trail to
Gosaikunda Lake is on the ridges of hiking hills
offering spectacular views of Himalayan peaks. This rout
connects from Langtang to Helambu. There are not local
inhabitants on the rout to Gosaikunda till 2 days but
when we inter to Helambu village we passes some
beautiful forests and very interesting villages of
Sherpas and Tamang. The Sherpa are quite distinct from
the Sherpas of Solukhumbu (Everest region) both in
language and customs. The people in Helambu where
carefully exploited to a lower cast because of a Nepali
king who was afraid they could give rebellion as they
live all around the city regions. Probably to this
result, they still live in backward civilization. The
ranges of mountains that rise above us match the
diversity of the people we meet. From low altitudes we
have excellent views of mountains that include Langtang,
the Annapurnas, Manaslu and even Everest on a clear day.
This is a pleasant and exciting journey, a time to relax
and become immersed in the beauty of the Himalayas.

Current Tourism News |

Nepal trekking /
travel related business was booming until 1999. After that, the
incessant conflict scared off tourists from visiting
Nepal and we are feeling the pinch of the fall in
tourist arrivals. There was a time when we recorded such
a huge flow of tourists that we used to turn back some.
As a professional Nepal tour operator we did not have sufficient
staff and equipment to handle all of them...
