Tamang Heritage Langtang Trek Cost: Cheap Package Price
Trip Overview
Tamang Heritage and Langtang Valley trek is an exciting trek to the Himalayas. It offers you to experience the everyday lifestyle of the Tamang people who live the nearby the Himalayas. It also grants you to enjoy the majestic snowy Himalayan peaks and to pass through mountain terrain, lush green forest, and cascading waterfalls. Tamang Heritage and Langtang Valley Trek connect two famous trekking routes: Tamang Heritage Trekking Trail and Langtang Valley Trek. It is also a less crowded trekking route of Nepal Himalaya.
The trek starts by following the Tamang Heritage Trail. This trail was developed by the Tourism for Rural Poverty Alleviation Programme (TRPAP), a pilot program run by the Government of Nepal with technical and financial support from the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), Department for International Development, and SNV/Nepal.
The local inhabitants are Tamangs. They are among some of the friendliest people you will ever see. Their culture is largely marked by Tibetan influences. During a trip when you trek from one village to another, you will pass cascading waterfalls, flowing rivers, terraced hillsides, and tip-tops of mountains peeping in the background.
Briddim is a living museum reflecting traditional Tamang culture and lifestyle. The jaw-dropping views at Nagthali (3165m) boost your energy. Feeling ecstatic, you can’t wait for what’s in store. You will enjoy Mt. Langtang Lirung (7227m), Ganesh Himal (7422m), and other mountain peaks, but for alpine views, the best has yet to come.
After the trek on Tamang Heritage Trail, you join the trail of Langtang Valley trek at Lama Hotel (2420m). You will pass Langtang village, itself a symbol of resiliency after the earthquake of 2015. Up and onward, you reach Kyanjin Gompa, the ultimate destination of your trek.
In Kyanjin, you can visit the famous Swiss cheese factory, and the Buddhist monastery, and/or venture out for some day hikes. You may hike to Kyanjin Ri (4773m) or Tserko Ri, (4985m) which offers a view of over several dozen snow-capped peaks. The feeling of being so close to the highest mountains in the world is unlike any feeling in the world.
After Kyanjin, you trace back your hiking to Syabrubesi, from where we started your trekking. The next day, you drive back to Kathmandu. The Tamang Heritage Langtang Valley Trek doesn’t require a high level of fitness and acclimatization to avoid acute mountain sickness.
