Riverside Lodge - Langtang Village
From Riverside Lodge to Langtang Village is a four hour walk. It's a not very
hard although you ascent to 3300 meters, but if you start early take your rests
drink enough water and stop to enjoy the scenery, it won't be to difficult.
After an hour walking from River
Side Lodge through the last parts of the forest there is a big open field with marvelous views over the mountains
Ghoratabela (3020 m). A
lot of people gather together at this point to get a rest and stare at
marvelous mountains that you now can see very clearly. After five minutes or
something you get to a checkpoint of the Langtang Valley National Park. After
the paperwork you entering the valley.
From now on, you'll be surrounded by
stones, rocks, big mountains, some bushes, yaks, cows, goats, a few mani walls.
Another hour takes you over a pretty flat trail to Thyangsyapu (3120). Only the
last part is quite steep, but once your up, you can enjoy a nice cup of tea if
you like. Since you've been turning the corner of the valley, now you have
a nice view of Tsergo Ri (4984). You can also see Langtang Village which is a
nice motivation. The next part is not so difficult, a little bit up and down.
Just before Langtang Village you pass a high bridge, have a short steep ascent
and then you are entering Langtang Village. In the first part you find all the
hotels, in the last and higher part of Langtang village after passing two mani
stone walls you will find the normal homes. Between the normal homes you have
these nice "roads" with high stone walls.
