TAMANG TRAIL, LANGTANG VALLEY
GOSAINKUNDA AND HELAMBU (19 days)
Developed by tourism within the framework of the
rural programme of reduction of poverty, “the road of the Tamang
heritage” is the product lately developed of eco-tourism in
Nepal. It leaves the beaten paths and offers the discovery of an
ancient lifestyle combined with picturesque landscapes.
We pass from the Sherpa country
by the forests of bamboos of the national park of Langtang (bear,
leopards, monkeys, deer and birds).
We go up then the valley of
Langtang until Kyangjin Gompa then ballade to the
glacier.
