Seven years ago I used their services. Great memories. First class service. I had a knowledgeable excellent guide and porters. Well organized company. I highly recommend them.
I am partial to the Langtang Himal. Fond memories of hiking through villages and pausing for each breathtaking vista. The staff of this company are attentive to needs and tuned to the expectations and interests of each traveler.
Langtang Gosainkunda Trek is one of the major treks of the Langtang region, along with Helambu Trek and Langtang Circuit Trek. This trek offers you both a wealth of natural and cultural experiences. In addition to the panoramic views of several snow-topped mountains and spectacular alpine scenery, this trek’s major highlight is the holy lake of Gosainkunda.
The 9-day trek commences from Kathmandu, leading towards Syabrubesi from where the actual hiking starts. The trek then follows the Langtang valley heading up to the Langtang glacier and the Tibetan border to Langtang village. This narrow village settled between the Himalayan ranges to the north and south, provides a spectacular view of snow-capped peaks including Langtang Lurung, and Lanshisha Ri. Continuing from Langtang village, the trek continues to Kyangijn Gompa, Lama Hotel, Chandan Bari ultimately leading to the final destination of the trek, Gosainkunda Lake.
Gosainkunda Lake has a unique combination of natural beauty and cultural richness. It is a sacred lake for adherents of Hinduism and Buddhism. During the Janai Purnima (full moon festival) in August, thousands of pilgrims from Nepal, India and other Asian countries visit this holy lake to take a bath in the holy water, believing it will wash off all their sins. Gosainkunda Lake is believed to have formed from the digging of the land by trident of Lord Shiva to obtain water to quench the thirst after consuming poison.
Your walk ascends through the beautiful Himalayan ranges to Gosainkunda with a number of adjoining mountains, astonishing rhododendron forests and a wide variety of flora and fauna. Enjoy the natural world in a different way. This journey also has stunning views of Ganesh Himal, Manaslu and Annapurna massif.

We had a pleasure to do Langtang Gosaikunda trek organised by the local tour operator. Trek was very well organised by Indira and Hari. Our guide Shiva and porter Lamsaro where very knowledgeable and courteous at all the times. Trek was quite a demanding but we are happy that we did this. Thank you very much.
The Langtang Valley trek offers an unforgettable adventure filled with natural beauty, cultural immersion, and personal growth. It's a journey that leaves a profound impact not just on you, but also on the local communities. So pack your bags, lace up your hiking boots, and get ready for the experience of a lifetime.
This was our second trek in Nepal having done Poon Hill in 2018. The Langtang Valley route is less crowded than Poon Hill. The trek is not easy with lots of ups and downs and a certain level of fitness is required. However, our efforts were well-rewarded with varied and breath-taking scenery along the route. The tea houses varied in level of comfort provided, with some having en suite western bathrooms while others, such as the Lama Hotel, were very basic with shared squat-style toilets and an outside shower room. The road to Syabrubesi is long and bumpy - I would definitely recommend getting the private jeep from Kathmandu. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed the Langtang Valley trek and would recommend it.
Ganske fin trekking tur med Alpin Ramble. Fantastisk rute. Flot udsigt til bjergtinderne. Upklagelig fin service fra guide og bærer. Fine overnatningsmuligheder på hele turen. Fantastisk betjening på de hyggelige guesthouse. Ville helt bestemt vælge Alpine Ramble igen.
Although I wanted something off the beaten path, I worried this route might not be challenging enough. But I instantly realized this would be a worthy adventure with the warmest hospitality.
The trails are generally good, but you should know that the whole trip is generally straight up and down. Make sure you have walking sticks and if youre not used to hiking for several days with a pack you should consider hire a porter to carry your pack.
Never take guides but this time Nepali government forced me to. Me and my colleague from another realm was given experienced commander Kumar with many extraordinary skills including searching, tracking, pathfinding. When you barely see some movement in the forest he already knows this is gray langur female 10 years old, 12 kg, well fed with one infant posing no threat to us. On the trip we definitely saw and experienced more than we expected. Since then we decided to always take a guide in Nepal.
We are pleased to be able to offer the amazing Langtang Valley Trek to the high alpine region that surrounds the incredible, fertile Kathmandu Valley. Set aside as a national park, the Langtang Valley is the third most popular place to visit in Nepal because of its magnificent beauty. The trek includes ten days of trekking as you penetrate the wilderness. Here, you will find awesomely beautiful villages as well as snow-capped peaks of the high Himalayas. There are hidden waterfalls, fields of wildflowers and yaks grazing in high summer pastures known as kharkas.
The Langtang Valley is located just a few hours north of Nepal’s capital city of Kathmandu. In a few short hours, you will travel from a sprawling urban setting to the very heart of the Himalayas in all of its majesty.
The Langtang Valley Trek is considered a moderate trek, and those willing to take on an additional venture can climb to the top of Mt. Tserko Ri, rising 5,028 meters (16,496 ft.) for the most inspiring view of the snowcapped peaks of the world’s highest mountains.
You will come to see the mountains, but return touched by the love and warmth of the people of the Langtang Valley. Isn’t it time to make that Himalayan adventure? Experience this rare delight found only in the heart of the Himalayas!
Discover sacred culture and incredible natural landscapes as you venture deep into Tamang hinterland along the quiet Tamang Heritage Trail (restricted until 2004). On this 15-day trek, you’ll explore the wilds of Langtang National Park, uncover surprisingly verdant midlands and stay in villages that will teach you about the local culture. Connect with locals, share stories and fill your days with exhales (both in exhaustion and in awe). All this, paired with the soaring views of Manaslu Massif, Ganesh, Langtang and Jugal Himal. This trek is perfect for the adventurous and active traveller looking for something different well off the tourist trail.

Due to the nature of trekking in Nepal, please be aware that this trip will operate on an amended itinerary in the event of high-risk weather conditions.
This trekking route is one of the most popular trekking destinations in the Langtang area. The trail is filled with rhododendrons, the national flower of Nepal, and also laden with religious Chorten, Stupas, and monasteries. Come experience the culture of this amazing, spiritual place!
Langtang National park offers short and long treks ranging from 4 days to 15 days. The prime villages in this park are Langtang valley, Kyanjin Gompa, Tarke Gyang and Thulo Syabru, and the main attraction of this park is Gosainkunda lake, Kyanjin Gompa located at altitude of 3850 m, from where we can see a panoramic view of Mount Langtang Lirung, Ubra, Yala, Gyang Chembo, Naya Kanga and Dorje Lhakpa.
Most of the people in this region follow Buddhism and do not sacrifice animals, as in other parts of Nepal. The national park is home to some rare animals like the red panda and several species of birds and butterflies. The flora and fauna here are just an added touch to the beautiful landscapes of Langtang.
