In this episode, join me on an unforgettable trek through the breathtaking Langtang Valley in Nepal. Starting from Syabrubesi, we'll journey through lush forests, cross suspension bridges, and visit charming Tamang villages. Experience the serene beauty of Kyanjin Gompa, where the towering peaks of Langtang Lirung and surrounding glaciers create a stunning backdrop.

We returned to Nepal for the first time in five years, and I am buzzing to be back. In the taxi from the airport to the hotel Thamel, I instantly knew that I was returning to one of my favourite countries.

Five years ago, we hiked the Annapurna Circuit and visited Pokhara, Chitwan National Park, Kathmandu, and other places around the country. This time, we visited Kathmandu and the Langtang Valley.

We had been craving Dal Bhat every day since the last time we visited, and we had it every day in Nepal this time, including in Langtang on the trek.

Officially, a law in Nepal requires a guide when trekking in national parks and trails like this, so we had one for our journey. Whether this is enforced is another conversation and depends on the area you are trekking in Nepal.

This was a 9-day trek with a rest day in the middle of the journey, and it didn't come without drama on the second day.  

The Langtang Valley trek can be challenging, with steep ascents and changing weather conditions. But the rewards are immense. Every step brings you closer to nature, and the views are simply out of this world.

The Langtang Valley offers more than just a trek; it's an experience of a lifetime filled with natural beauty, cultural richness, and personal growth.

I love Nepal and the Himalayas. That part of the world holds a special place in my heart, and visiting is always a good idea. I have always dreamed of returning, and I will one day. The landscape is stunning, the food is incredible, and the people radiate warmth, humility, and kindness. What a place—one of my favourite places on Earth.

Kyanjin Gompa was an achievement for me. I am not a good hiker; I tire easily, moan, and curse, but the end goal is always worth it because of the views.

So many views, mountains, dal bhat, crips Himalayan air, prayer flags, enchanting villages and great coffee in this one! If you want to trek in Nepal, I highly recommend it. Please get in touch if you have any questions.
