Langtang Valley View Trekking

A 7-day Langtang trek with this local tour operator is highly recommended! We had five wonderful, tough, fun, beautiful, and overwhelming days of trekking, experiencing Nepal’s raw natural power up close. We hiked from Syabrubesi to Kyanjin Gompa (a 2,400-meter altitude gain!) in three days and descended in two. Along the way, we passed through lush forests, steep mountain slopes, and even snowy trails. When the weather was clear, the views of countless towering peaks were absolutely unforgettable. The entire experience was guided by our experienced guide, Binod, and our knees were especially grateful to have the kind porter, Rajendra, with us. Binod managed everything perfectly, paid close attention to how we were feeling, and adjusted the pace according to our needs. He was also very aware of altitude sickness symptoms. We took Diamox but didn’t experience any issues. Unfortunately, I caught a bad cold just before the trek, but Binod was ready with medicine, Strepsils, and ginger tea. He and Rajendra make a fun duo, adding to the fantastic experience! Along the way, the company were easy to reach if we needed any additional assistance – though we never actually had to. We were two sisters on this adventure, and we are SO happy that we gave ourselves this experience!

It’s my first time in Nepal. Just been an amazing experience. Langtang Valley Trek is a heaven on earth full of diversity between the treks through the forrest, following the river and snow-capped mountains. I was also able to see different animals along the way. Great place to experience. Shiva planned all of my trip and I’m most thankful for that. He listened to my requests and took in consideration what I wanted to do and the time that I had. With all of that he prepared a perfect and personalized itinerary. Up next I will definitely visit Everest Base Camp and suggest Everyone don't miss this opportunity.

The trip was great, perfectly hard, relaxing and so so SO beautiful. Our guide and porters were super kind, helpful, informative and nice to be around! Highly recommend for both beginners, intermediate hikers.

Very beautiful all the way with spectacular views of mountains on the top! All the people at the guesthouses are extremely friendly.

Excellent Trek experience, Langtang Valley View 7 day trek challenging but rewarding beginner trek for my partner and I are first timers. Expect some tender calf muscles by day 3 and 4! Our guide Binod was exceedingly helpful throughout the experience and we felt felt well looked after the whole time. Dal Buht power!

For our first trek in Nepal it was incredible! It wasnt a hard trek but you knew you were working for the spectacular views at the end. For this experience we are already planning our next trip back!

Bikash was a great guide and everything ran smoothly. Great experience and simpler than organising yourself if youre time limited. We carried our own bags - it was challenging at points but still really fun overall.

My husband and I had such a wonderful time on this trek! We had a great guide, Prakash, who made sure that we were getting enough water and was able to tell us all about the area, it's history, and it's people. We wnt in late March and had great weather - a decent snowstorm on our second night treking, but it added the the beauty of the next day. While this hike was challenging with how steep it can get, it is nothing that frequent rests won't take care or, and I think it is super accessible for folks. Would absolutely recommend.

The trek couldn't have gone any better really, great weather, fantastic scenery and a very good guide Bishnu who was friendly and helpful.

We couldn't have been happier with this adventure. The views left us breathless, we enjoyed every single moment. Bishnu was very knowledgeable of the region, always had an answer for our questions and although he started as a guide, now it feels like we are leaving a good friend in Nepal. The lodges were all very comfortable (considering we are used to sleep in tents), and even though the temperatures were very low at night, we always felt warm with our sleeping bag and the duvet provided at each accommodation. Highly recommended to get the jeep to Syabrubessi, specially if you tend to suffer from travel sickness. We decided to take it in the last minute and never regretted. Will definitely visit Nepal again!

Amazing amazing trek! Throughly enjoyed every moment. I went into this trek without any prior experience and I think it was the perfect taste. Highly recommend!

Having not done any real trekking before, my friend and I opted to go with a guide, and we decided on Nepal Lion for organizing our trip. Langtang Valley View Trek was a great choice, being relatively easy and offering great views. Having done our trek in June, we got quite lucky with the weather, and were able to see mostly-unobstructed views. Our guide Binod was quite knowledgeable and helpful throughout our trip, and allowed us to choose our own pace. The teahouses and lodges were all fairly nice and cozy, with a good selection of food. My only complaint might be that for $475, only one drink (a tea or coffee) is included per day. Make sure you have at least a few thousand rupees to spare if you want something other than water with your meals. Overall though, the trek was very enjoyable and stress-free. Highly reccomend.

What a great trip. Excellent service and our guide, Bishnu, was fantastic. I went as a solo traveler but chose to join a group which included 2 British guys and we ended upp having a great time. Beautiful scenery and great weather, except when we summited Kyanjing Ri for a sunrise view when it was a bit cloudy, but overall very nice. The accommodations were a bit rustic, but are improving due to the rebuilding after the Earthquake of 2015. I'd definitely recommend for those with limited time in Nepal who want a wonderful trek through the Himalayas.

My wife and I took this adventure in the middle of March 2018. If you're limited on time, I can't imagine a better trek. The variety and beauty of the scenery is captivating. The people are wonderful and warming. Our guide Prakash was fabulous and very sweet -- he had a great rapport with everyone on the trail and he certainly had our trust. He's very honest and made sure we had fun. Thank you!!!

Excellent Trek, great service package, best Guide. Our Guide Suresh picked up us already at the airport and was with us until our flight back. It was more than impressiv how he guided us through this amazing nature of Langtang Valley. Always friendly and a smile in his face. You could feel that the mountains and guiding in more than a job, it's his passion. The tour was amazing. Arrived in the mountains after a one day bus experience, you pass very different natures every couple of hours. The last village at 3.800m was a mind blowing impression. You will love it. We also got great food 3 times per day. I would only recommend to take 1 additional day in the highest village to even more enjoy the trip.

Its a great trek. You get some unmatched views of the ranges. Everyday you get to trek through different terrains. The tea houses offer great service and food without being pushy. Go for it.

Langtang Valley is a very nice area to go hiking. Different terrains, nice people and awesome views. Our guide Binod was also very careful and helped us as best as he could. His English wasnt fluent but good enough to communicate to avoid misunderstandings. If somebodies carrying a little more luggage it is easier with porter although we didnt have one. The trek is not as easy as promoted, especially for complete beginners or people that are not fit at all. The trek itself is very easy to find. Its almost the same way up and down. I would recommend going there because its less touristic than other short treks in Nepal.

I went alone with guide in end of January/beginning February. Had a wonderful meeting with different villages during all trekking which could see the real lifestyle from Nepal Lang Tang Valley, Tibetan Culture and Nepalese Culture. I Started from stunning forest trekking, went to river/mountain sights and finally reach the final point (Camjing Gumba) to reach highest point (4984m). Absolutely mind blowing experience from first day (bus trip till to the starting point) until last day. Watching local culture and how they are re-building a new city after huge earthquake from 2015. Strongly recommend for who want to feel real mountain life, local village lifestyle, have a good accomodation with such nice Nepale food. Ultimately, reaching the mountain peak of 4984m is breathtaking view for all valley!!

it was my first trek in Nepal so it helps to have Shiva at Nepal Lion taking care of everything. All i need to do is to just turn up and enjoy the trek.

Myself and my friend decided to go do a trek for the first time. And I must say it was the perfect trek! You start out in a warm climate in a jungle where you can see monkeys, you will do quite a lot of vertical meters. By the end you reach a small village surrounded by glacier where the temperature has dropped significantly! We were picked up by our amazing and kind guide Bishnu at the airport and he was with us all the way until our farewell dinner! All in all it was an amazing experience which I highly recommend! Its a trek that gives you so many different sceneries in just one week.

The Langtang Valley is spectacular...great experience. Long drive from Khathmandu to start..roads ranged from terrible to terrifying!

Good trail, flexible guide, and hotels, food, and transport is neatly arranged so you can focus on hiking. Our guide was a friendly man named Binod, who lets you go on your own pace. The boss of the company speaks fluent English and answered the questions we had about preparations per email. The company provides sleeping bags which in rolled up state are larger than compact sleeping bags for camping, so consider bringing your own. The wooden hotels on the trail have decent sleeping places and food. Most bathrooms even had hot showers, albeit in concrete rooms.

Great trek in the beautiful landscape of Langtang. Having great assistent from guide, porter and the company made this trek an incredible experience.

Very nice trek for who has short period of time in Nepal. The guide Binod was very entertaining and helpful. The view at Kyanjing valley was stunning. We would recommend this trek with Lion tours and treks !

Even before the trip itself the communication about preparations was excellent. Didnt know about elections running around and so my trip was postponed, but the company help me to organize all trip accordingly to my leave days spent in Nepal and help me to prepare myself for the first time trekking in Nepal. Guide who was provided to me was very friendly, smilling and knows answers for all of my questions. Very helpful with organizing all stuff on all way through teahouses and journey itself.Thank you

-Guide during the trek very friendly, with a good english -The trek is short but fantastic, with a lot of different landscapes to see (from forest to high peaks full of snow and glaciers)

It was tough but soo worth it! The ever changing views and scenery were amazing, the spirit of the people is breathtaking. Go to the Langtang Valley. Three days up and two days down is a whirlwind but an amazing one.

Travelled in April as a family of four. It was our first visit to Nepal and I booked the Langtang Valley View trek via Bookmundi as it suited our abilities and timescales. Mr Shiva was helpful and pleasant, he kept in touch with us from the date of booking and during our time in Nepal. The trek itself was challenging, ascending 2000m in the first few days. We saw eagles and monkeys, the landscape changing from forests with pretty rhododendron trees to open pastures with the magnificent peaks coming into view. It was very moving to see the devastation created by the earthquake two years ago, however the locals are rebuilding their lives and the route and facilities are very much open for business. We met some great people...trekkers, locals and of course our own group. Our porters, Krishna, Nima and Bikash were hard-working and good fun. The biggest shout out goes to our wonderful guide Prakash, for his professionalism, care and attention...he barely let us out of his sight. I would not hesitate to recommend the tour operator, Prakash in particular. They were part of a truly unforgettable personal experience...I hope to return to the Himalayas sometime soon. Top tips: If you can afford to, upgrade to a private jeep for the long and arduous journey to Syabrubesi. Budget and take enough rupees to last you the trek, remembering drinks and snacks get pricier the higher you go.

Our local tour operator was first rate all the way. Delivered on all promises. The trek was so good and rewarding. Our porters were first rate, and took care of everything. Our guide, Prakash, was excellent. Extremely detailed oriented, very professional, and a great guy. Well done! I would do it again anytime. Best regards, Michael Ryan Canada

It was a very amazing trip along the Langtang Valley; it is highly recommended to everyone who likes to trek with little crowd.

We had a lot of fun, made some really nice photos and Everest beer was really great. You have to open it slow as it explodes on higher altitudes. Many thnx to our guide Binod and take care Prakash;)

I had an amazing time during this 7 days trek in the Langtang Valley! We had a perfect weather, Binod my guide was excellent and my porter Prakash too! Totally recommend them both! The landscapes are incredible, the people we met on the way were really nice. I started the this trek with a guide and a porter, I came back with two friends.

Lion is an awesome, reliable company offering excellent service. We traveled as a group of 2 (both 27 years old) with a guide (Bishnu) provided by the agency. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and spoke English well. All permits and passes were taken care of by the agency; buses too. The route design was perfect, allowing us to acclimate before attempting to reach the top of Tsergo Ri. We made it to the top, the views were stunning, and it was the perfect challenge for us. Definitely one of my greatest accomplishments. A+

Our trip to langtang was amazing. The local tour specialists took care of all the details from airport pickup/drop off, meals, and tea houses all included. Our guide Bishnu was very knowledgeable and led us on a great trek. On Langtang we saw a variety of amazing views. We even hiked to 5000m! This was an amazing experience I will never forget. Thanks!

I went on the Langtang Valley trek arranged by the local travel specialists and don`t regret a moment. The whole trip was very well organized from start to finish and I had a fantastic guide in Suresh and a porter in Namraz. We took the local bus from Kathmandhu, an experience in itself, and then hiked for 6 days, reaching nearly 500 metres. The route was straightforward and beautiful all the way, especially at the end. We saw birds, monkeys, wild bee hives, and met very friendly people. I will never forget being in such a gorgeous place with such nice people.

This trek was a brilliant experience from start to finish. Our guide Rajendra was a complete legend, helping us ever step of the way. The trek is a good workout, walking throughout each day - but not too hard. You can do it if you are a beginner. If you're thinking about doing this - do it!

Extremely caring, friendly and patient ! Shiva was extremely caring, friendly and patient. He would go the extra mile to ensure that you are comfortable and safe. Highly recommended hiking company.Worth for the price.

I really enjoyed the Langtang Valley, and they have recovered well from the earthquake. It's a beautiful hike and the only downside is that you go back the same way you go up, just faster. On this trip, we did see a red panda!

The Langtang valley trek was my first overseas trek and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The difficulty of the trek was not too hard and the trek would be suitable for all ages with a moderate level of fitness. Langtang is a very safe and very interesting area to visit after the earthquake with very friendly and welcoming locals. The wildlife, views and friends we made on the trip made it a fantastic holiday. Our guide Lale, was absolutely fantastic as despite being a very overqualified trekking guide having sumited Everest 4 times, he remained enthusiastic and joined in with the fun we were having as a group. Shiva, a very hard working and competent individual, also provided us with sightseeing in Kathmandu which was fantastic as without the transport provided by Shiva exploring Kathmandu would have been much more of a challenge.
