Nepal Social Treks Review

I’ve just completed the 15 day Everest Base Camp trek with Nepal Social Treks and can’t praise the company, guide & porter highly enough. My guide in particular, Lhakpa was an absolute star who could not do enough to make the time away as comfortable as possible. Considerate, knowledgeable, funny, kind & inspiring. I genuinely don’t think I could have completed the trek without their support! A lifetime ambition completed thanks :)

Great guide

The Everest Base Camp trek was amazing. Everything was organised for us. The accommodation and food was better than we expected. Our guide Amrit was professional, knowledgeable, and kind. He adjusted our trip to follow our pace. When we got sick, he was extremely helpful and caring, and made sure we got the care we needed. We can't wait to return to trek again.

Awesome Annapurna Trek

We were extremely happy with our choice of Nepal Social Trekking for the 12 Day Annapurna Circuit Trek. We were expecting a group, but in the end, it was just my wife and I and Guide Kamal with Porter Nabin. Kamal always seemed to get us the best rooms at the Tea Houses and his knowledge of the trek was outstanding. He assisted and monitored our water intake, food and oxygen stats every day over 3000m, so on the morning we set off for Thorung La pass, we did it with ease. No headaches or any other issues. Our Porter was always very obliging and together they made a great team. Flights back to Kathmandu and other admin didn’t seem any issue. We highly recommend the company

We did the 12 days trek from Lukla to Everest Base Camp. It was an amazing experience! The trip is beautiful. Our guide Narayan helped us in every moment to reach the final destination. The porters were very kind. We recommend this experience!

Reaching Everest Base Camp was a dream of mine and this trek was really amazing!! Narayan, our guide, was truly skilled and great company; he supported us even in the most difficult moments. A heartfelt thank you to the porters, who, tireless and always smiling, made our trek possible! Well done, everyone!

FAQs about Langtang Valley Trek

Expand all

What is the accommodation like on Langtang Valley Trek?

Langtang Valley Trek is a classic teahouse trek in the heart of the Himalayas. However, the teahouses and lodges in this region are significantly well-managed compared to other popular treks. The accommodation facilities are comfortable, cozy, and hospitable in the Langtang region. They provide all the essential amenities, such as rooms, food, toilets, charging facilities, WiFi, and hot showers.

Nonetheless, with Nepal Social Treks, you are guaranteed to get the most comfortable and hospitable teahouse in every overnight stop on the trek.

Am I likely to suffer from Acute Mountain Sickness on this trek?

Usually, the threat of Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS) begins once you trek above the elevation of 3,500 meters. On Langtang Valley Trek, you will be walking up to 4,285 meters at Langshisha Kharka. Similarly, the highest sleepover point of this trek marks at Kyanjin Gompa at an elevation of 3,870 meters. Although the risk of AMS is significantly lower than the Everest Base Camp or Annapurna Circuit Trek, the threat is always there.Not everyone is likely to suffer from it! Make sure to take all the necessary precautions to reduce the chances of altitude sickness. Make sure to walk slowly and keep yourself hydrated as it can help you reduce the chances significantly.

What kinds of insurance do I need for this trek?

Even though Langtang Valley Trek is an easy to moderately difficult trek compared to Everest Base Camp or Manaslu Circuit Trek, you should not neglect it. Remember, you will be walking up to 4,285 meters at Langshisha Kharka. For some, this attitude is enough to strike severe altitude sickness. Not only that, but the route to the upper section of the trek is also perilous and highly landslide-prone.

Therefore, all trekkers must have travel insurance for Langtang Valley Trek. Before starting the adventure, it is mandatory to provide a copy of your travel insurance to Nepal Social Treks. Always buy comprehensive travel insurance that covers almost all the necessary expenses.

While buying travel insurance, make sure that the policy covers extensive medical expenses, accidents, theft, trip cancelation, and, most importantly, helicopter evacuation fees at high elevation (up to 5,000 meters).

What is the food like on Langtang Valley Trek?

While trekking in Langtang Valley, the teahouses serve both Nepali as well as western cuisines. Therefore, we will balance the meal plan with both Nepali and western meals during the trek. Your health and well-being are Nepal Social Treks' number one priority. Hence, we ensure that all the meals served during the trek will be fresh, healthy, hygienic, nutritious, and delicious.

Here is a list of popular items on our menu:

Breakfast - Tea, Coffee, Hot Chocolates, Oatmeal, Pancakes, French Toast (with Jam, Butter, and Honey), Tibetan Bread, Local Tsampa Porridge, Muesli, Fruits, Egg (Boiled, Fried, Omelets), etc.

Lunch - Dal Bhat, Tibetan Bread, Sherpa Stew, Hot Soup, Momo, Pizza, Sandwich, Pasta, Noodles, Spaghetti, Fruits, Thukpa, Vegetable Salads, etc.

Dinner - Dal Bhat, Sherpa Stew, Hot Soups, Momo, Sandwich, Macaroni, Thenduk, Thukpa, Pizza, Noodles, Pasta, Vegetable Salads, Desserts, Tea, Hot Chocolate, etc.

It is also advisable to avoid the meat items while trekking in the Himalayas. It is because meat items are often not so healthy and hygienic meals. Not only that, but we strictly suggest you avoid alcoholic beverages during the trek.

How's the drinking water on the trek? Is it safe to drink?

Almost every teahouse in the Langtang region provides you safe drinking water, be it cold water or boiled water. Make sure to carry a water bottle and fill them in the teahouse on every stop. Before drinking, however, we suggest you treat the water with water purifiers or tablets.

It is also possible to buy bottled water in the tea houses and shops around the route. But, we do not encourage our clients to buy bottled water, as they add up the plastic waste in the mountains. In addition to that, never drink water from a local tap, stream, or any other natural source.
