Langtang Gosaikunda Trek - 17 Days

Langtang Gosaikunda Trek is a journey of beautiful landscape, lush green forest, pristine and serene lakes, snow clad mountains, quaint villages and nature and wildlife in the Langtang region of Nepal.

In this trek, we will walk through many ethnic settlements and villages, forests of bamboo and rhododendrons and also may get a chance to see the popular Red Panda, snow leopard, musk deer of this region and other wild animals inside the park. Langtang Valley lays close to the Tibetan boarder so the culture and looks of the village reflects similar to Tibet.
