With an opportunity to witness the beauty of the Langtang Himal range and to peek into the Tamang culture, Langtang Valley Trek for families is one of the most popular and viable family treks in Nepal. As Langtang valley is located north of the Kathmandu valley, this trek is ideal for families with children who want to expose their children to the world away from their busy lives. Langtang Valley trek for families is short with well-maintained trails, hence, allowing you and your children to have a memorable journey amid pristine nature and culture.
The 10-day Langtang Valley Trek for families begins with your arrival in Kathmandu and continues with a drive from Kathmandu to Syabrubensi. Starting to trek from Syabrubensi, the trail goes alongside Langtang Khola throughout the trek. Most of the routes pass through the densely forested path filled with rhododendrons, oaks, pines, bamboos, and maples. The trails go through Langtang National Park where you may encounter some of the exotic faunas like red panda, yellow-throated martens, wild boar, Himalayan black bear, snow leopard, etc. The trek also offers majestic views of different mountain peaks like Langtang Lirung (7227m), Naya Kanga (5844m), and Dorje Lakpa (6966m), and so on. Another attraction of the trek includes a stopover in Kyanjin Gompa, a Buddhist monastery surrounded by the Himalayas. A side trip from Kyanjin Gompa to Langshisha Kharka features the view of dramatic icefall flowing from the peaks of Langtang Lirung (7227m). The trail passes through many yak pasturelands and several Tamang villages, allowing you and the children to learn and understand the Tamang culture, tradition, and their lifestyle.
