Trail description

A 12.1 km walk with about 420 m of climbing from Kyanjin Gompa up the wide upper Langtang valley past yak pastures to Langshisa Kharka at about 4,100 m, where the Langshisa glacier comes in below Langshisa Ri and the peaks of the Tibetan border. Most trekkers go there and back in a long day from Kyanjin. Foreign trekkers need the Langtang National Park permit and, since 2023, a licensed guide.
