Langtang

Treks in the Langtang National Park comprise moderate to difficult grades and offer seasonal changes which are dominated by the South-west Summer monsoon patterns. Most of the annual rainfall occurs between June to early September so the best times to experience optimal weather are late September to November and late March to May when the days are warm and sunny and the nights are pleasantly cool with some snowfall at higher altitudes. December to mid-March offers clear blue skies however, nights are pretty cold. At Down to Earth Adventure, we offer a range of treks that maximise amazing Langtang adventures throughout the year. Our most popular trek is definitely Langtang Valley Trek due to its compact nature and relatively easy trekking grade. However, we also offer the Langtang Valley with Gosainkunda Lake Trek which provides you the chance to also visit a holy lake with water considered sacred by Hindus and Buddhists due to it being the abode of Lord Shiva and Goddess Gauri. Indeed, Gosainkunda Lake is majestic at all times of the year, however, in Winter this frozen lake is simply breathtaking and well worth considering despite the additional level of difficulty that trekking in Winter brings. A trek in Langtang will offer you the chance to sample so many unique experiences of local indigenous Tibetan derived cultures and lifestyles in an environment that is surprisingly unspoilt due to the trails in this area only recently being opened up to tourists. If you want to get off the beaten track but still enjoy the hospitality of staying in local teahouses … then Langtang is the perfect choice for you.
