Everest Base Camp Trek
The classic Khumbu trail to Everest Base Camp, paced for acclimatization with Sherpa-led guiding from Kathmandu.
Langtang
Langtang Valley Trek
A week in the valley north of Kathmandu — glaciers, Tamang villages, and no domestic flight.
Langtang is the trek we recommend when you want mountains without a Lukla flight. A road transfer from Kathmandu reaches the trail in a morning, and you are in a high valley within a few days.
Kyanjin Gompa is the heart of the route, with optional day hikes toward Tserko Ri if the weather is kind.
The trail starts near Syabrubesi (~1,550 m) in Langtang National Park — a half-day drive from Kathmandu, no mountain flight. Kyanjin Gompa is about 3,870 m; Tserko Ri viewpoint reaches roughly 4,984 m on a long day hike. Langtang was rebuilt after the 2015 earthquake; teahouses and TIMS plus park permits are arranged before you leave the city.
