Langtang Valley a place of forever memories.
Langtang Valley is a stunning place that draws you in with its varied landscapes as you make your way through the lower gorge, to the valley opening and on to the high altitude valley head at the village of Kyanjin Gompa at 3870 meters. Starting at Syabrubesi you climb nearly 1000 meters through the beautiful, hot and verdant bamboo and sub-tropical rainforest to Lama Hotel. A stunning riverside setting of quaint teahouses.
The trek from Lama Hotel to Langtang Village (another 1000 meters of ascent) is incredible as you catch your first glimpses of the high, snow capped mountain tops, through the verdant forest, a personal highlight.
Finally, you continue to rise to Kyanjin Gompa surrounded by jaw-droppingly gorgeous high peaks, glaciers and lakes framed against picture perfect blue skies.
Weaving your way up the gorge and through to the valley you pass many teahouses, villages and communities who always welcome you with a broad smile, a motivating wave and an enthusiastic “namaste”. Beautifully warm and encouraging people to match a beautiful place.
Our trekking guide was Pemba, and our porter Kailash. A dynamic duo of un-ending support, professionalism, encouragement, motivation and enthusiasm. Pemba’s skill and knowledge was so informative adding immensely to our trek. His attention to detail was impeccable and his planning made every day, and element of the trek, right from our hotel pick up to the final drop off in Kathmandu completely hassle free. Most importantly of all though we simply enjoyed spending our time with our new friends Pemba and Kailash.
I found Magical Nepal and Saugat through the research I had completed when considering a trek in Nepal, the reviews of their company and experiences of others. I am so happy I did. What a delight to plan my families trek with Magical Nepal and Saugat. So responsive and easy to communicate with and so professional and helpful at every turn, question or query. An absolute joy. I felt I was in the hands of enthusiastic professionals whose sole ambition was to ensure my families trek was an experience of a lifetime with memories to match.
From my first communication with Saugat and Magical Nepal, through to the days in Langtang Valley spent with Pemba and Kailash I have had the most joyous and memorable time that they, Magical Nepal, have enabled me to share with my family. I would not hesitate for a moment to recommend Magical Nepal to anyone wanting to trek in Nepal. I certainly will be trekking in Nepal again and will 100% be looking forward to sharing that experience with my new friends at Magical Nepal.
