Find a trekking partner for Langtang Valley Trek
Find my trekking partnerLangtang Valley Trek is a 8-day trek in the Langtang region of Nepal that climbs to 4,773 m. Foreign trekkers can find a partner for it on FindTrekkingPartner by posting a trip with their dates, budget and pace. Matches stay private until both trekkers agree, and the service is free. At mid-range rates a licensed guide costs about USD 50 per person over 8 days when four trekkers share, against USD 200 for one trekker alone. The best seasons are Mar–May, Oct–Nov. A licensed guide is required in practice here: the Nepal Tourism Board April 2023 rule is reported by 2026 operators to be enforced at checkpoints in national parks and conservation areas, with Langtang the strictest and Annapurna checking too (checked 19 October 2026). Hire a guide through a registered agency and confirm with them. Last verified: October 21, 2026. Sources: Nepal Tourism Board, DNPWC, Department of Immigration.

This route drives to Syabrubesi on day 1 and finishes there on day 7. On 26 August 2026 a large rock-and-ice collapse from the north face of Langtang Lirung sent a debris flow down the Lhende Khola into the Bhote Koshi and Trishuli rivers, hitting Rasuwagadhi, Timure, Syabrubesi and Betrawati (ICIMOD). Many bridges and long stretches of the Pasang Lhamu Highway were damaged, and a large number of people died or are missing; reported figures differ by source.
Syabrubesi, the usual Langtang road-head, is reported destroyed or closed as a trekking gateway, with the bridge to it swept away; restoration depends on the Betrawati highway reopening. The Trishuli Bazaar-Betrawati-Dhunche road was reported still closed for repair as of 21 September. A light-vehicle track has reopened, and agencies projected the remaining gaps passable no earlier than mid-October; that is a projection, not an official date.
The upper valley (Lama Hotel, Langtang Village, Kyanjin Gompa) and the main trail were reported not destroyed, but current trail conditions are not confirmed. A reported alternative is to drive to Dhunche and walk via Thulo Syabru to Lama Hotel and Langtang. On 16 October local residents reported repairing the landslide-damaged trail sections above Paljor and below Rimiche. ICIMOD warns that loose debris in the valley can be remobilised by monsoon rain.
We found no official reopening notice. Check current road and trail conditions with Langtang National Park and your trekking agency before booking, and do not rely on this summary alone.

Split the guide costPartner tips for Langtang Valley Trek
- A licensed guide is required in practice on this route (Nepal Tourism Board rule of April 2023, enforced at checkpoints), so budget for one and share the cost. Decide as a group before you buy permits.
- Match on the start day before anything else: on Langtang Valley Trek a one-day difference at the start changes every lodge booking and acclimatisation stop.
- Agree the pace for the longest days and the highest nights, not for the easy start. Ask partners how they handled their last trek above 3,000 m.
- Put the guide fee, porter share and tip split in writing before you book. The three-line template in our guide takes five minutes.
- Decide now what happens if someone turns back: who keeps the guide, and how costs are split for the days walked.
