Yala Peak


  1. Yala Peak
    Langtang Valley



    The Langtang Valley trek takes us to an area of Nepal where the influence of trekkers has not been so great. The valley became Nepal's second largest national park in 1976. The park has healthy forests of rhododendron, fir, blue and chir pine and birch. Wildlife in the park includes leopard, musk deer, Himalayan black bear, rhesus and langur monkeys and the endangered red panda. The Bhote Kosi - Trisuli is an important migratory route for birds travelling between India and Tibet. The Langtang valley Gosainkund route may be trekked in either direction. Note also that the route and campsites are always at the discretion of the Sirdar.

    Walking hours are only a guide and can vary greatly. It depends entirely on your fitness and ability to walk and of course, on how often you decide to stop and take photographs.

    These trek is also of special interest to Birders featuring some unusal altitudinal migrants such as Ibisbill and Gould's Shortwing, uncommon summer visitors include Pied Ground Trush and high altitude birds such as Snow Partridge, Tibetan Snowcock and Grandala. Specialities that can be easily found throughout the year include Fire-tailed Myzornis and Black-browed Tit. Pheasants, bush-robins, tesias, bush and leaf warblers, wren-babblers and rosefinches can also be readily seen. In April and May birwatching time in the mountains above 2750m is often reduced by low cloud in the afternoons.
