Langtang 10 Day Trek Itinerary
Day 1
KATHMANDU: ARRIVAL DAY
Welcome to Kathmandu. Our team meets you at the airport and transfers you to your hotel, with a short trek briefing over dinner that evening.
Day 2
KATHMANDU TO SYABRU BENSI
A 145km drive north of the capital (7-8 hours), passing Trisuli Bazaar and Dhunche with Himalayan views opening up along the way, to the stone-house village of Syabru Bensi at 1,460m.
Day 3
SYABRU BENSI TO LAMA HOTEL
10.9km of walking (5-6 hours) following the Langtang River and crossing a suspension bridge into Langtang National Park. Keep an eye out for red pandas, monkeys and Himalayan black bears on the climb to Lama Hotel at 2,470m.
Day 4
LAMA HOTEL TO LANGTANG
14.8km (5-6 hours) climbing through oak, maple, rhododendron and hemlock forest. Langtang Lirung comes into view before you reach the Tamang village of Langtang at 3,550m.
Day 5
LANGTANG TO KYANJIN GOMPA
A shorter 6.8km day but a demanding one, passing the tree line and climbing a glacial moraine for views of the icefall. At Kyanjin Gompa (3,800m) you can visit the monastery and the village yak-cheese factory, with an optional afternoon hike up Kyanjin Ri.
Day 6
KYANJIN GOMPA TO CHORKA RI, RETURN TO KYANJIN GOMPA
