Our amazing trip to the Langtang Valley Panorama Trekking begins with an early-morning drive into the high highlands of Langtang to Syabrubesi, an exhilarating drive that takes us via numerous rural villages and cities to reach warm places like Trisuli Bazaar. After a short rest, the trip continues to Ramche and Dhunche town, which are cooler areas at 1,960 m and the entrance to Langtang National Park, respectively. Dhunche is a significant town in the Rasuwa district and the Langtang region. From here, the drive continues on a downward, twisting road until it ends in the village of Syabrubesi, where travelers will spend their first night in the Langtang region.
Our first day’s walk begins with a few hours of climbing towards isolated farm regions and towns, then continues near Riverside and Bamboo Place with a few tea shops and lodges. After a little break, we continue walking through a cool forest of rhododendron, oak, and pine trees before entering a valley and following the Langtang River, which is fed by the glaciers of the Langtang peaks. We finish the day’s walking at the Lama Hotel, where we will spend the night.
After a lovely evening with the sound of the river running, the morning walk begins by ascending uphill through a gorge of dense woodland, eventually reaching a nice site at Ghodetabla (horse stable), from where altitude gradually rises and air becomes cooler. After lunch, the walk continues to Langtang village for an overnight halt, passing through woodland and then entering a bigger region at Langtang village, a pleasant moderate size village of Tamang and Bhotia ethnic peoples. (This community was entirely destroyed by the massive earthquakes that struck on April 25th and May 12th, 2015).
Today on the trail, and the first highlight of the journey, as the morning trek leads to Kyanjin Gompa in Langtang valley, trekking follows with a short steep ascent as tree lines disappear for small bushes of rhododendron, juniper, and prickly Burberry bushes. Following a lovely and magnificent morning walk, we arrive at Kyanjin Gompa for an overnight break as we slowly enter a vast, gorgeous glacial valley with views of high mountains covered in snow on both sides of the valley. A summer pasture and grazing area for yaks, Kyanjin is situated in the scenic Langtang Valley.
This picturesque place gives close-up views of the Langtang Lirung glacier and ice fall. Kyanjin is named after a historic Gompa (monastery) that is now in near ruins perched on a rocky moraine ridge top. At Kyanjin, see the Yak Cheese Factory, which was built 30 years ago with the guidance and support of Swiss technical assistance.
To explore the gorgeous surroundings, take a short climb to the summit of Kyanjin Ri at 4,773m for a beautiful mountain vista. Or Climb to Tsergo Ri, which has rather steep slopes and requires 4 hours of climbing to reach the peak, where you can see 360° of the surrounding mountains.
