About 6 Day Langtang valley Trek

The 6 Day Langtang Valley Trek is one of the best short-distance trek to ascend in Nepal. Every day hundreds of trekkers and explorers ascend this trail for general expedition and also for the religious aspects of the place. Whether you want to escape the everyday chaos and embrace nature for a few days or want to live the beauty of the Himalayas in a short period.

The Langtang Valley 6 Day Trek with Adventure Bound starts with a drive from Kathmandu to Syabrubesi. Syabrubesi is a beautiful settlement, also known as the entry gate of any trekking itinerary in the Langtang Valley or the entire Langtang region. Here, you can rest for a day moving your feet toward the actual trekking trails of the Langtang Valley 6 Day Package.

On the way up, trekkers can experience mere changes in the atmosphere, climate, and weather in the initial phase. However, as we reach the higher parts of the 6 Day Langtang Valley Trek, drastic changes can be experienced in the weather and climate. The gradual ascend takes us through several floras, faunas, rhododendron forests, serene rivers, vegetation, traditional and rural lifestyles, and sparsely populated villages, with amazing views of the distant mountains.

The 6 Days Langtang Valley Trek Map offers mind-boggling views of several snow-covered peaks including Langtang Lirung (7234 meters), Ganesh Himal (7422 meters), Gang Cheenpo (6388 meters), Naya Kangri, Yala Peak (5732 meters), Dorje Lakpa, and Loenpo Gang. These Himalayas keep a close watch as you ascend the Langtang Valley Trekking Trail.

Exploring the wilderness, trying new and unique cuisines, interacting with the locals, and getting insights about the lifestyle at the Langtang Valley, our journey ends after six days. Adventure Bound makes sure that all the trekkers get proper facilities, adventures, food, and accommodation, throughout the 6 Day journey to the Langtang Valley.

Difficulty Level of the 6-Day Langtang Valley Trek

The difficulty level of the 6-Day Langtang Valley Trek is categorized to be moderate. The route certainly is not like walking in the pitched roads but it is also not as difficult as ascending other trekking routes in Nepal like the Everest Base Camp Trek. With hotels and lodges checkpoints to checkpoints, and all the accommodation centers offering amazing food and facilities, trekkers can ascend to and descend from this trek with much ease and efficiency.

A little practice, endurance, physical training, and most importantly a strong mindset is required if you want to participate in this expedition in the Langtang Valley. As the highest altitude of the 6 Day Langtang Valley Trek map is 4300 meters, there are possibilities of altitude sickness. However, you can stay safe from altitude sickness by following some precautions listed below:

  • Make sure that you prioritize physical, mental, and endurance training for a few months before actually going for the trek.
  • Drink plenty of water because dehydration can also minimize the risks of altitude sickness at a higher altitude.
  • Follow the instructions provided by the guides throughout the entire 6-Day Langtang Valley Trek.
  • Eat healthy food and push forward to eat green vegetables and fruits as much as possible rather than fast food and junk snacks.
  • Quit the consumption of any sort of intoxicants like alcohol and nicotine.
  • If you experience the symptoms of altitude sickness (dizziness, weakness, headache, breathing difficulty, etc), please inform the guide as soon as possible but do not give up at any cost.
  • In case you feel that continuing the trek is not possible for you at all, let the guides know so that the Adventure Bound team can arrange your return to Kathmandu.

How to Prepare for the 6 Day Langtang Valley Trek?

As the Langtang Valley Trek's 6 Day expedition is considered to be moderately difficult, trekkers do not need advanced or hardcore training to participate in this expedition. However, you need to have a positive attitude and be very mindful while ascending to the Langtang Valley. Basic preparations including a little training can make the Langtang Valley Trek a lifetime memory of amazing landscapes, villages, scenes and scenarios, and traditional lifestyle to the explorers.

  • Start researching the trails, maps, obstacles, challenges, and all the factors affecting the trek almost a couple of months before the journey.

Itinerary

Expand All Hide All

Our journey to the Langtang Valley begins with a drive from Kathmandu to Syabrubesi. The drive takes you through multiple forests, hills, rivers, waterfalls, and beautiful traditional settlements. Trekkers will be in a local sharing bus drive for about 7 hours on the first day with stops in the middle for lunch and other reasons.

The drive would be one of the most amazing parts of the 6 days Langtang Valley Trek due to the things that you get to see and experience. Moreover, you can also interact with so many people as the drive is done in a public sharing bus. Not to mention, the 7-hour long drive from Kathmandu to Syabrubesi of the 6 Day Langtang Valley Trek Itinerary can tire you by the evening. Therefore, Adventure Bound arranges the best hotel or lodge for your stay and dinner on the first night.

  • Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner
  • Accommodation: Hotel / Guesthouse / Teahouse
  • Place: Syabrubesi
  • Altitude: 1460 meters

From Syabrubesi, we begin the actual trekking journey. On the second day, trekkers will walk from Syabrubesi to Ghortabela, located at an altitude of 3020 meters. The route is comparatively easier and well-built compared to the ones waiting for you in the higher altitude. Trekkers cross the Bhote Koshi River and then start a gradual ascend.

On our way to Ghortabela, we will join the trail from Syabrubesi from where the route slowly enters a lush oak, pines, and rhododendron forest. Moreover, if you are lucky enough, some animals like monkey deer, and mountain goats can be spotted on this part of the 6 Day Langtang Valley Trek. After walking for around 6 to 7 hours, we finally reached Ghortabela. However, before that the trekkers will also stop by a famous hotel in that region, the Lama Hotel.

Upon reaching Ghortabela, trekkers can spend the rest of the day exploring the area and tasting some amazing cuisines. Moreover, interacting with the locals to understand more about the place can also be very fruitful. For dinner and overnight stays, Adventure Bound arranges a comfortable and cozy hotel or guesthouse.

  • Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner
  • Accommodation: Hotel / Guesthouse / Teahouse
  • Place: Ghoretabela
  • Altitude: 3020 meters

From Ghortabela, the route ascends towards another checkpoint of the Langtang Valley 6 Days Trekking Map. Elevating from 3210 meters to 3860 meters requires a total walking period of 6 to 7 hours based on the pace of the trekkers. On your way to Kyanjin Gompa, you will pass through several attractions like rivers, lush forests, small villages, tea houses, etc.

Once the trekkers reach Kyanjin Gompa, they can find themselves in a village that no one might believe exists at such a high altitude. Explore the village to see Cheese factories, monasteries, and traditionally built tea houses. We believe that the beauty of this village will help you forget the tiredness you had while ascending this part of the 6 Day Langtang Valley Trek.

Besides, the surrounding, tea houses, and other man-made beauties, Kyanjin Gompa also offers spectacular views of different snow-covered peaks including Langtang Lirung (7,205m/ 23,638ft), Langtang Ri (7,205m/23,638 ft), and Dorje Lakpa (6,966 m /22,854 ft). The Adventure Bound team encourages trekkers to interact with the locals and delve deeper into the Tamang and Gurung traditions and lifestyle. Dinner and overnight stay will be arranged by Adventure Bound at one of the best lodges, hotels, or guesthouses at Kyanjin Gompa.

  • Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner
  • Accommodation: Hotel / Guesthouse / Teahouse
  • Place: Kyangjin Gompa
  • Altitude: 3870 meters

On the fourth day of the Langtang Valley 6 Day Itinerary, we ascend to the highest point of the journey. From Kyanjin Gompa, we commence the journey early in the morning to see the sunrise view from Kyanjin Ri (4773 meters). You will walk in the darkness of the early morning before sunrise and reach Kyanjin Ri. This viewpoint offers one of the best sunrise views throughout the entire Langtang region.

The ascending route might not offer many views because of the darkness. However, once you reach Kyanjin Ri, you can experience the view of a lifetime. Along with witnessing the orange sun rising from beneath the Himalayas, you can also get to see the eye-soothing views of the snow-covered peaks turning golden as the rays of sunlight strike them.

After a few hours of enjoyment in the Kyanjin Ri, we descend to Kyanjin Gompa and have our breakfast. Once the trekkers are done with the breakfast, we take the descending route and reach Lama Hotel, the checkpoint for the day.

  • Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner
  • Accommodation: Hotel / Guesthouse / Teahouse
  • Place: Lama Hotel
  • Altitude: 2470 meters

We are currently on the second last day of the 6-day Langtang Valley Trekking journey. After having a tasty and fulfilling breakfast in the Lama Hotel, we descend towards Syabrubesi, the point from where the trek begins. This route of the Langtang Valley Trek's 6-day itinerary is comparatively better and more developed than the routes in the higher altitude.

After walking for about 3 hours, we finally reach Syabrubesi and take a rest there for that day before returning to Kathmandu. In Syabrubesi, you can also explore the area and buy souvenirs for yourself to take back home.

  • Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner
  • Accommodation: Hotel / Guesthouse / Teahouse
  • Place: Syabrubesi
  • Altitude: 1460 meters

Useful Information

Best Season to Visit the 6 Days Langtang Valley Trek

Nepal offers the best experience and adventure in every season and month of the year you choose. However, if you are planning to explore the Himalayas, you must be very careful about the seasons, and their impacts on the journey. Adventure Bound Nepal team suggests the Spring season (March to May) or the Autumn season (mid-September to November) as the best seasons to go for the Langtang Valley 6 Day Trek.

During these seasons, you can experience the best landscapes, clear skies, and surrounding environment. Moreover, almost all of the tea houses, lodges, and restaurants also remain open during these seasons. Therefore, if you choose one of these seasons, you can be in for the best exploration and adventure in the Langtang Valley. However, we also recommend trekkers to book a little ahead of time because these are the peak seasons which means the number of trekkers might be very high during the spring and autumn seasons.

Besides, Adventure Bound's Langtang Valley 6 Day Trek package can also be booked during the winter season if you want some advanced adventure and challenges. However, the accommodation and food might be a little difficult during the winter season as most of the tea houses remain closed due to extreme temperatures.

Food and Accommodation Facilities in the 6 Day Langtang Valley Trek

Adventure Bound Nepal makes sure to arrange the best accommodation for your stay and meals during the journey. In the lower altitudes, trekkers can experience much more variety of food and accommodation. However, in higher altitudes, the facilities might be limited due to the extreme weather conditions and altitude.

The tea houses, hotels, and lodges offer different cuisines and food items like boiled egg, Nepali Khana Set, Newari Khana Set, Momo, Chowmein, Pasta, Noodles, Thukpa, and so much more. Moreover, the 6 Day Langtang Valley Trek has many tea houses, lodges, and guesthouses that offer advanced facilities. Throughout the trekking journey, trekkers will not have many difficulties due to the facilities that lodges and guesthouses offer.

Packing for the 6 Day Langtang Valley Trek

Langtang Valley Short Trek (6 Days) is not a very difficult trekking destination if we compare it with several other trekking areas in the Himalayas of Nepal. Nevertheless, that does not mean preparation and packing are not necessary.

You must be very smart and cautious about packing while ascending to the 6 Day Langtang Valley Trekking Map. Check out these necessary packing requirements for ascending on this trekking journey:

  • Trekking Boots, Socks, and trekking poles.
  • Warm-down jacket, fast-drying, and light-weighted t-shirts, and tracks.
  • Water bottles, energy bars, snacks, and altitude medicine like Diamox.
  • Sunscreens, sunglasses, hats, etc to protect yourself from the harmful rays of the sun.
  • Mufflers, beanies, and other warm clothes.
  • Smartphones and cameras to store the memories of the 6 Day Langtang Valley Trek.
  • Map of the Lantang Trekking Area for references and route navigation.
  • Some extra cash (preferably NPR) for the expenditure in the trekking area.

Also, we recommend trekkers have proper communication with their guides before starting the journey so that they can suggest more gear and equipment based on the live conditions of the Langtang Valley.

Possibilities of Altitude Sickness During the Langtang Valley 6 Days Trek

Altitude sickness is a common yet serious issue in higher altitudes. Once you ascend above the altitude of 3000 meters, there are chances of nausea, loss of appetite, headache, dizziness, etc. All these are due to the lack of oxygen and too much of walk. If you feel any of the above-mentioned symptoms, inform the guide immediately. This will help you get the necessary medication.

Nevertheless, you can also take care of yourself during the Langtang Valley 6 Day ascend to stay away from the risk of altitude sickness. Here are a few ways to keep yourself safe:

  • Keep a slow pace and walk continuously. Remember that we are not on a race and take it as an adventurous journey rather than being in a hurry to reach the top and descend sooner.
  • Drink as much water as possible throughout the ascend and descend. Drinking adequate water keeps your body hydrated and minimizes the risk if altitude sickness.
  • Carry some snacks with yourself so that you can eat during the walk. With that, you will not lack the energy to ascend to the Langtang Valley and Kyanjin Ri.
  • Follow the guide and make sure that you keep note of all of their instructions.
  • Prioritize eating only vegetarian food throughout the trek for better health.
  • Do not panic if you sense minor symptoms of altitude sickness. These symptoms can be cured with simple medication and caretaking.
