Langtang Valley Trek has been one of the best trek I had till now. If you want to experience snow and see some mesmerizing view then this trek is best during winter season and is considered as one of the easiest trek of Nepal. During the trek, we'll get chance to see astonishing view of nature such as: mountains, villages, wildlife, forests, gumbas, etc. This villages is surrounded by Tamang communities and it falls under Langtang National Park.
When we did Langtang Valley Trek, it took us 5 night 6 days to complete the whole trip. The details information is given below:

In day 1, we went to Syaprubesi from Kathmandu by hiring jeep. It took nearly 8 hours to reach Syaprubesi from Kathmandu. This day, we start trekking from Domen and we reached Bamboo at 5 pm. It took nearly 4 hours to reach bamboo from Domen. And at evening, we got chance to experience snow.
In day 2, we walk till Lantang Valley from Bamboo. Everything was surrounded with snow and it added more beauty in the nature. We got chance to see lust forest, greenery, mountains, snowing hill, animals and so on. Altogether we walked for 10 hours this day and finally reached Langtang Valley.
In day 3, we started our journey at 8:20 pm. This day, our target was to reach to Kyanjin Gompa only. The way to Kyanjin Gompa was truly very beautiful. I cannot even describe in words about its beauty. We have to see through our naked eyes to see its beauty. And the view of Kyanjin Gompa was just wow. It only took us 3:30 hours to reach Kyanjin Gompa and rest of the day, we enjoyed snow and campfire.
In day 4, at 4 a.m. we head towards the top of Kyanjin Ri. When we all reached Kyanjin Ri, we all felt like heaven. It was so beautiful. My eyes still feel mesmerized when I remember the top view of Kyanjin Ri. After some time, we return back to Kyanjn Gompa, had lunch and again return back to Riverside.
In day 5, we return to Syaprubesi from Riverside and in day 6, we drive towards Kathmandu.
