(Langtang Trek is one of the most beautiful Valley) the short sentence spoken by Tilman (An English mountaineer and explorer, renowned for his Himalayan climbs and sailing voyages and climbed highest peaks in the world till 1950 who worked for British National geography society.
The above words explain everything about Langtang trek when it is said by the worlds famous explorer. Indeed it is one of the most beautiful valleys in Nepal that I have seen. Langtang Valley Trek can be done either starting from Dhunche or Shyabrubesi in 8-10 days. Though it is the shortest distance from Kathmandu you can still see undisturbed wild areas and remote villages settled by the Tamangs (though they are the Tibetan descendent). Know the old myth story that describes how Langtang Valley was discovered while the yak herder was chasing the yak that came from Tibet.
Langtang trek which starts from 1450 meters at the lowest point is an introductory trek to experience the Himalayan scene and the Tibetan culture that goes up to 4980 meters height of Tcherko-Ri.
