About this spot
The Langtang Valley trek reaches Kyanjin Gompa, about 3,870 m, with time to acclimatize and explore the upper valley.
Access checked 17 September 2026: September flood reports describe damaged approach roads and bridges beyond Dhunche. This plan depends on confirmed access to Syabrubesi and open trails and lodges; it is not a current bus timetable.
Suggested Kathmandu-return plan:
Day 1 — Kathmandu to Syabrubesi, only with confirmed access.
Day 2 — Walk to Lama Hotel.
Day 3 — Lama Hotel to Ghodatabela.
Day 4 — Ghodatabela to Langtang village.
Day 5 — Langtang to Kyanjin Gompa.
Day 6 — Acclimatization day at Kyanjin.
Day 7 — Explore locally; the lower Kyanjin Ri viewpoint, about 4,300 m, is optional.
Day 8 — Descend to Lama Hotel.
Day 9 — Walk to Syabrubesi.
Day 10 — Return to Kathmandu.
Moderate to demanding. Keep at least two extra days. March–May and October–November are usual seasons once access is confirmed. Higher Kyanjin Ri and Tserko Ri are separate, harder outings; do not turn a rest day into a compulsory summit day.
Keep the acclimatization stops. Do not climb higher with altitude-sickness symptoms; worsening symptoms require descent and medical help. Confirm permits and guide requirements for your nationality.
