Langtang valley

Langtang region sits on Nepal’s border with Tibet, a short distance north of Kathmandu. Langtang village lies on this popular trekking region near the base of Mt. Langtang Lirung. From the village, you get fabulous views of 6,000 to 7,000m snow-capped peaks. The highest mountain you can see here is Langtang Lirung at 7,227m. Nepal’s third main trekking region after the Khumbu (Everest) region and the Annapurnas was the Langtang region for many years. But, the Langtang valley was one of the most affected areas of the 2015 earthquake of Nepal. The whole valley was buried under the lump of stones and mud resulted due to the landslides and avalanche breakdowns. However, after 4 years of the devastating earthquake, it is on its way to taking back its title and glory of one of the best trekking destinations of Nepal. The locals have rebuilt the village, maintained the trekking trails, restored the teahouses, and made the Langtang village safe for trekking.
