Overview
Langtang National Park is one of the most beautiful areas for Nepal Trekking. Not as popular, and therefore not as crowded, as some of the better-known regions, this area is rich in culture as well as fabulous mountain scenery. Spring and autumn is the best time to visit with clear air after the winter and monsoon early wildflowers in the lower reaches. The area is still very heavily wooded with mixed forests lower down and then pines higher up. Above Thulo Syabru is a wonderful region of mixed oak and hemlock, and hardly a person around. Slow and Easy trekking in Langtang takes you up through a huge, U-shaped glacial valley to Kyanjin Gompa which is surrounded by towering snowy peaks. There is a possibility to trek up the valley further as a day-trip to wonderful viewpoints above the village. On this area you can make the short and long trek, longer trek includes a climb over the Gosainkund Pass which is above a pilgrimage site with little temples dotted around a lake at 4,300 m. The pass, at 4,600 m is not as extreme as on some other treks so I would classify this trek as medium-hard. It’s actually easier than the Everest Base Camp trek. We make the plan on your interest, fitness and look after you very much. The given Itinerary is rough (outline Itinerary). I will be on the trekking with you, so any time we can change it.

A trekker should be fit to do this trekking. Maximum altitude of the trek is 3730m , so you should be careful about attitude risk. To get rid of it please walk slowly and have more water and avoid alcoholic drinks. You must take care of your health.

Basically, we can get mineral water bottles in lower places but as we go higher cannot find it. In that case we suggest you to drink boiled water which may charge small fee, found in tea houses and better to bring chlorine tablets to purify water. Due to no provision of plastic bottles better to use boiled rather than mineral water, helpful for protection of environment.
Recharging Batteries of Electronic Items On the Trek
Hydro electricity or solar power sources are used to charge your electrical items like camera, batteries, ipod, iphone etc. Tea houses or lodges may charge small fee per hours for charging facilities. Better to buy adoptors before the trip since plugs are limited. In Nepal 220-240 volt power is used and sockets fit round and flat plugs.
Garbage Disposal
Use a dustbins and do not throw anything into the fire. Carry garbages in the way where dustbin facilities is not available and conserve the environment.

All the guest houses offers hot showers, which can be in bathroom or can be a bucket of hot water. Please note that at high altitude there may not be enough hot water for all the trekkers.
