Langtang Valley is the nearest Himalayan Region from Kathmandu valley, few hours drive from Kathmandu will take you to the beautiful Langtang region.
Despite being very close to Kathmandu, the Langtang region is as wild as any Tibetan highlands with idyllic rural landscape.
The people living in the highlands of the Langtang region are certainly Nepalese but being the descendant of the Tibetan origin, they look like the Tibetans.
Langtang region is one of the most popular trekking regions and delivers more amazing views in a short time than any other walk-in trek in Nepal, with the possible exception of the Annapurna Sanctuary.
