I went on a week long trek to Kyanjin Gompa in Langtang Valley with a guide friend and her husband . We traveled from Kathmandu by private jeep up to Syaprubesi . I had heard the bus ride was very rough. Even by jeep the journey is long, dusty and bumpy. The road conditions being very poor in places. We stayed in Lama Hotel , Langtang Village en route to Kyanjin Gompa, up at 3900 metres altitude. Despite the terrible earthquake and destruction in 2015 the people are working hard to rebuild their lives. The trekking routes are in good condition, and with plenty of warm welcomes at the tea houses. Views are spectacular. The lovely people of Langtang Valley need tourists to return to their valley. You will not be disappointed.

The Langtang National Park is the fourth national park in Nepal and was established in 1976 as the first Himalayan national park. Beauty of Barun valley is captivating. The northern and eastern border of the national park coincide with the international border to Tibet. The western boundary follows the rivers Bhote Kosi and Trisuli.

Please do this trek.

I did this trek from 26 Nov - 1 Dec 2016.
Here's what my itinerary looked like:
26 Nov - Syafrubesi to Lama Hotel
27 Nov - Lama Hotel to Langtang Village
28 Nov - Langtang Village to Kyanjin Gumba
29 Nov - Scale a peak near Kyanjin Gumba, then descend to Thyangsyap Village
30 Nov - Thyangsyap Village to Bamboo
1 Dec - Bamboo to Syafrubesi

This does not include the most painful part of the journey - the 9 hour bus rides from Kathmandu to Syafrubesi and back (practically a full day each). The only alternative (slightly less painful) is via private jeep; there is unfortunately no way to fly there.

The trek passes through forest for the first 1.5 days, following the course of Langtang River - by lunchtime on the 2nd day, the trail opens into a breathtaking mountain valley with light vegetation and shrubbery, affording tantalising peeks of the Langtang Himalayan range over the horizon. The journey culminates in a huge expanse of grassland in a wide valley at Kyanjin Gumba - right in the heart of the Langtang range, with spectacular views of Langshisa Ri to the east, Langtang Lirung and its glaciers to the north, Kangja-La pass to the south, and the rest of the valley to the west.

The region was badly affected during the earthquake in 2015 - much of the damage can still be seen. Langtang Village, once the largest settlement in the eponymous valley, has been partially rebuilt, but remains only a fraction of its original size. For about 20 mins before arriving at the village, you will find yourself walking through the rubble of the landslide which claimed the village during last year's quake.

The trail itself remains open, and entirely accessible to trekkers. Facilities (hotels/lodges/restaurants) remain open, in good condition - and in need of visitors. My guide and the locals tell me that the region has seen a sharp decline in trekker numbers in the aftermath of the 2015 earthquake, which is a shame, considering the beauty of the region. In fact, now might be an excellent time for the trek, with plenty of space available on the trail and in the lodges.

So, the gist of my review is this - please do this trek. It is only slightly challenging, not as physically demanding as some other treks (think Everest BC/Annapurna BC/Circuit), doable within a short window of time (7-10 days), and as captivating as any other trek in Nepal. Most of all, do it to support the locals in their efforts to rebuild the region.

We had a great time up at the Langtang valley. Amazing weather and fantastic people. Venn, our guide, was very nice and accommodative to our request. He made everything easy to us. Fully recommended!

We went trekking recently in the Langtang Valley and were amazed at the both the incredible beauty of the area and some of the devastation that still remains from the avalanche several years ago. The trail is now clear, teahouses and restaurants are open for business and it is important to show support for this community that suffered so horribly. We had a most amazing experience and look forward to our next trek!
