Frequently asked questions

How hard is this tour?

We rate this tour as a 3 / 5. Most of the trail is not strenuous, but at higher elevations, even easier sections of trail become more challenging. Consult your doctor if you have concerns about trekking at high altitudes.

Should I be concerned about altitude on the Langtang Trek?

You should always check with your doctor before taking a trekking tour at elevation. On the Langtang Trek, elevations are relatively low for the Himalayas, but still can pose a danger. On Day 5 you reach Langtang (3,541 m/11,617’), and you’ll be above this elevation until Day 7. The highest elevation you’ll sleep at is Night 6 and 7 at Kyanjing Gompa, where you’ll sleep at (3,900 m/12,795’). The highest elevation you’ll hike to is Kyanjing Ri (4,773 m/15,659’). Spending time at these elevations will impact your stamina, sleeping and could pose health risks.

Do I need a Visa?

Check with your local country about visa requirements. You could also try this website, though you should verify with your government.

Are meals included?

7 breakfasts, 8 lunches, and 7 dinners are included on this tour.

Do I need insurance?

Yes, it is mandatory to have Health and Medical insurance to join this trip. Get your Travel Insurance.

How do I get to Kathmandu to start this tour?

The Tribhuvan International Airport in Kathmandu is the only international airport in Nepal. If arriving in Nepal by air, you must fly to this airport.

Are the tours in English?

Yes, the tour guide is English speaking.

Where does the tour end?

The tour ends where it begins, in Kathmandu.

What should I pack?

You will be given a complete packing list for your trek upon booking. Plan to layer your clothing to be comfortable at different temperatures. You should be able to add a waterproof layer (jacket and trousers) to stay dry, as well as protect yourself from the sun with a hat and sunglasses. A headlamp with extra batteries is also recommended. You will carry your own daypack (30 L recommended) during the day and your baggage on the trek is limited to 12 kg. You should also have a sleeping bag (rated for -10°C), dry bags, a padlock (to lock your trek bag) and a basic first aid kid. Please respect the traditional Nepalese culture by dressing conservatively (avoid bare shoulders and keep legs covered)

Can I charge my phone / camera / other device?

You may need an outlet adapter for any electrical items. PRESS HERE for more information. Electricity will not always be available along the trek. Some lodges will have solar powered charging facilities for an additional fee.

How much spending money will I need?

Plan to have cash, exchanged into Nepali rupees. It is possible to withdraw rupees from ATMs in Kathmandu but not outside the city. An estimated $400-600 USD per person should be sufficient for meals in Kathmandu, drinks, snacks and other personal expenses such as showers and charging batteries in the trekking lodges. This should also cover tips for your guide, porters, and other trek staff.

Do I need vaccines?

Check with your family doctor.

Are there any travel restrictions for this country?
