Amazing experience
I had an amazing experience with Nepal Social Trek! Starting with clear communication and well-organized trip planning followed by a warm welcome, we were impressed by the great hospitality we received from everyone. The trip was a real adventure, full of happy emotions and beautiful moments shared together. Our guides, Narayan and Govinda, were extremely skilled and knowledgeable. They were not only excellent guides but also beautiful people from a human point of view. After the trek, Nepal Social Trek also arranged a guided tour of the city of Bhaktapur and its temples for us. I absolutely recommend Nepal Social Trek!

Good experience in Nepal
I did the Chisapani Nagarkot trekk. My guide Kamal was very considerate, landscapes were nice and the hotels and food were good. We also visited Bhaktapur which is nice. I recommend visting Nepal and the Nepal social company.

Langtang Valley Trek
What an epic trip! Nepal Social Treks were brilliant. Seamless organisation from start to finish. They were always friendly and responsive with communication before I came out, were helpful when it came to hiccups with my baggage. And were flexible with my tour, switching from the Tamang to the Langtang trek with no complaints. My guide - Kamal, and porter - Santa, were both excellent. Kamal was super knowledgable, trustworthy, and great company. Santa’s a legend! The accommodation & food were great. The daily trekking: incredible and just the right level of challenging. I could not recommend this trek enough if you’re after something shorter.





Nepal Social Treks were an amazing company who helped me make memories for my life on a climbing attempt of Island Peak December 2023. Even though it was in the off-season and in December, they ensured I had everything necessary to achieve my goal and enjoy my winter trek. They were also very helpful after the trek and I enjoyed my conversations in their Kathmandu office. I'd recommend my friends to go climbing with them any day.

A trip organized by Simina Cernat our guide from România with a very good collaboration with Nepal Social Trecks. This was an experience of a lifetime rafting mountains nature people… We are grateful we had Lakpa to guide us throughout the trecking. Lakpa carefully addressed all our questions and help us understand Nepali culture he was the best guide friendly, kind, patient and felt very taken care of during our 9days trek on the Annapurna Circuit. At 5000m i had a difficult moment, could hardly walk but Lakpa immediately observed that and he helped me succesfully reach to Thorong La pass. 5416m. Also the two porters Nima and Manut were very nice and helpful. The trip itself was well thought through for our needs and expectations. Thank you Lakpa and high-level
FAQs about Langtang Valley Trek
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.
