It is a big day’s adventure today, as you will be exploring one of the major highlights of the Langtang Valley Trek 7 Days. After a healthy and nourishing breakfast, you will start your adventure on mild inclines; however, you will gain a significant altitude on this day’s expedition, and the oxygen level in the atmosphere will start to thin out. So, it is recommended that you enjoy a nice and easy-paced adventure and stay hydrated throughout the trek. As the lush greenery starts to fade out with the widening Himalayan vistas, you will walk across the yak pasture, buckwheat terrace, several small streams, and moraines.
You will also walk across the spiritual path decorated with praying flags, chortens, and mani walls as you pass the beautiful high-Himalayan settlements like Mundu and Singdum. After arriving at the Mundu, it's a gradual uphill trek as you move along the Langtang River and finally arrive at Kyajin Gompa. In this region of one of the oldest and most significant Buddhist sites (approximately 200- 300 years old), you will also find a government-operated cheese factory. If your arrival is early and you are still feeling energetic, you could go for a side exploration of Langshisha Kharka. From its vantage point, you will be able to enjoy the spectacular views of the mountain peaks like Langtang Lirung, Mt. Ganchempo, and several other adjacent peaks in the Himalayas.
