Langtang National Park Botanical Trekking

Tour code NAP-BOT-03

Langtang is the first Himalayan National Park designated in 1970A.D. Langtang is in the north of Katmandu, the capital city of Nepal. The national park is allowing the local people to live their lives within the park and therefore a unique harmony between humans and nature can be seen in this zone. The forest has diverse flora fauna, wild animals and birds together with more than 40 villages, scenic lakes, glaciers and imposing Himalayan peaks. On the trek you can explore the views of mountains like Himal Chuli (7864m), Manaslu (8156m) and others. The Langtang valley is also renowned for the famous lake Gosaikunda; the forest in Langtang National park is a prime example of temperate and sub-alpine vegetation's. The dense oak & pine forests on the trail up the langtang valley area are of particular interest for everyone. The rhododendrons form a spectacular display during spring; wildlife in the area is dominated by main bird species with migratory birds using the Gosanikunda Area as a temporary sanctuary. Deer & monkeys in the lower forest and Thar and Pica on the alpine hillside can be found.

This Botanical treks begins as similar to the Langtang valley trek except that return takes a different route passing through an entirely different valley. We drive to Dhunche and further to Shyabrubensi then start of the trek. We trek to Lama Hotel then crossing the Langtang Khola, we start our climb up the Langtang valley through excellent forests. Magnificent views are seen from Kyangjin Gomba and visiting glacier or climb the peaks at a comfortable low elevation. An optional climb to the Yala peak provides stunning views into Tibet. From Kyanjin descending to Langtang, Ghoretabala and Syabru, we ascent through fir & rhododendron forest to Sing Gompa. The route then deviates and we reach the Hindu holy lakes at Gosaikunda, a famous pilgrimage site. Here we have superb views of the central and eastern Himalayan peaks. The trail proceeds to the Tharepati pass, and then drops down to the picturesque Sherpa village of Helambu. The entire Helambu region 72 km north-east of Kathmandu has several highland Tamang and Sherpa villages scattered on both sides of the Melamche Khola.
