In Jake Norton's words...

Among domestic clearer political skies (yes, thank God, it's improving greatly!), it is with much interest that I read Jake Norton's first blog entry about the Everest trek with S and team. You can find it here: https://jakenorton.com/reflections-on-hunku/

Here are the excerpts I found most telling, but I do encourage you to read it all. It is genuine, it is honest and it is real. This guy does not need to sugarcoat anything, indeed - not that mountaineers were this particular type, either.

'An adventurous soul with a heart of gold', who 'rose to it all, never flustered or bothered, always interested and engaged and inquisitive.' Remember (ROFLMAO), this is not Tash, the Twitter Sparkle Lounge madame, speaking from her fangirling mirador at a random OL con. This is what a man with a 30 years experience of high-altitude trekking has to say about his unlikely, but enthusiastic travel companion. And to make the unintended (but honest) Slap-an-Idiot operation even more resounding, he then proceeds to explain why this is not even remotely an indulgent judgement of the character. He could not be clearer about it:

'And, to be honest, my little coffeeshop meeting was both to suss out his interest and let him meet me (and judge me) in person, but also, more importantly, to feel him out. Guiding for me is not simply an economic thing, transactional, but about time and people and experience. I’ve done too many “off-the-shelf” trips in the past to have zero tolerance for sharing the mountains with people whose goals and values are misaligned with mine. It took but minutes with Sam to know our worlds, while vastly different, were built upon similar ideas and ideals and approaches.'

He guided S the only possible way one must travel through Asia: with an open mind and an even more open heart. They deliberately ran away from five-stars accommodation (this blogger always combines the humble and the glam, with a noted preference for the genuine 'humble') and graciously responded to the local people's enthusiasm - something that will always be the most beautiful surprise to any traveler who successfully unlearned how to behave like a tourist:

'Unfortunately for Sam, I don’t really believe in the sugar-coated version of Nepal; fancy hotels and windowed views of life are little more than television with smell. I want people to see the real Nepal, wander the back streets, immerse in the smoky incense of dawn on cobbled streets, bells chiming and dogs barking, ambling through the visceral reality that is Pashupatinath, taking in the respite of Bodhanath, embracing the comforting chaos of alleys and backways of Lalitpur.'

Reading this made me both feel nostalgic and itchy. For even if you might find me enjoying high tea, in the Bangkok Mandarin Oriental's Author Lounge, my heart will always, always fondly remember the magical nights in a humble Hmong thatched hut at Ban Somsavath, somewhere midway from Vientiane to Luang Prabang. But that is personal and I wouldn't dare mix it up with someone else's experience, so I won't insist. What I can tell you, though, is that I absolutely believe S is honest when he says he will be back: for it is not the traveler that chooses Asia - it is Asia that carefully, deliberately chooses the traveler.

These sounds are mine. They will always resound loudly in my soul, for too many reasons to list here in tearing haste. Why did I add them, though? Because once your plane crosses the Everest, the magic begins in earnest:

Luxury Trekking vs. Budget Trekking: Nepal Has It All!

Trekking in Nepal is like deciding between a five-star banquet and a fantastic street food adventure—both have their advantages and will leave you with wonderful memories. Nepal caters to all types of trekkers, whether you’re looking for comfort or a low-budget adventure. Let us break it down!

What’s Luxury Trekking?

Luxury trekking is ideal for individuals who want to explore Nepal’s stunning scenery without sacrificing luxury. Consider luxurious cabins with hot showers, gourmet meals, WiFi (yes, even in the mountains!), and perhaps a spa treatment after a long day of hiking. It’s hiking without the strain, ideal for individuals who enjoy adventure but not the struggle.

What to Expect From Luxury Trekking:

Luxurious lodges with comfortable beds, individual rooms, and attached bathrooms.

Gourmet lunches combining international and local cuisines.

Professional tour guides, porters, and, in some cases, personal cooks.

Helicopter rides to avoid difficult trails or to simply enjoy the view from the top!

Some locations offer modern facilities such as WiFi, coffee bars, and even saunas.

Top luxury treks in Nepal:

Everest Base Camp Luxury Trek: Stay in the best lodges in the Khumbu region and return in comfort via helicopter.

Annapurna Luxury Lodge Trek: This short yet scenic trek offers excellent lodgings and cultural activities.

Upper Mustang Luxury Trek: Experience the ‘Last Forbidden Kingdom’ with all of the comforts of a royal traveler.

What’s Budget Trekking?

Budget trekking is ideal for people who believe that the greatest way to explore Nepal is to rough it out and embrace the raw adventure. Every cent counts, every meal feels earned, and each step takes you deeper into mountain culture.

What to Expect in Budget Trekking:

Teahouses and guesthouses offer basic sharing accommodations.

Traditional Nepali cuisine (Dal Bhat Power, 24 Hours!).

Porters or self-supported treks carry minimal stuff.

No frills, just pure adventure, breathtaking scenery, and local culture.

More engagement with other travelers and locals (because you’re sharing everything!).

Top Budget Treks in Nepal:

Everest Base Camp Budget Trek: The same breathtaking vistas, but with basic lodgings and fewer amenities.

Annapurna Circuit: One of the world’s best long hikes, with many of affordable hotel options.

Langtang Valley Trek: A hidden gem with amazing views at an affordable price. You can learn more about budget trekking here.

How Nepal is Perfect for Both

Whether you’re splurging or saving, Nepal guarantees the ultimate trekking experience. The country’s hiking infrastructure caters to all budgets, offering anything from warm, high-end resorts to low-cost tea shops.

Why Nepal is the Best for Any Trekker:

Nepal offers a wide range of trekking options, from rocky, lonely treks to well-equipped centers.

Affordable Prices: Even luxury hiking in Nepal is cheaper than a weekend trip in Europe.

Welcoming Culture: Whether you spend $10 or $1,000 a day, Nepalese hospitality is friendly and sincere.

Spectacular Views: No matter how much you spend, the Himalayas never charge for their splendor!

The Trekker’s Dilemma: Which One to Choose?

If you want to enjoy a cappuccino while gazing at Everest from a heated room, go with luxury. If you’d rather sit by a fireplace, sipping local tea and swapping stories with other trekkers, cheap trekking is for you. But here’s the greatest part: Nepal allows you to mix and match. You can do a low-cost walk but spend on a helicopter ride at the finish. Alternatively, go luxury but include a couple tough days for a raw adventure vibe. In either case, Nepal assures that you leave with a full heart and an Instagram feed. So, are you prepared to trek the Nepalese way, whether in luxurious comfort or on a tight budget? Regardless, the mountains are waiting.

Langtang Valley Trek For Beginner

Starts at: Syabrubesi Ends at: Syabrubesi Trek Region: Langtang Transport: Public Bus Duration: 8 days Trip Grade: Moderate Max Altitude: 4800 m / 15655 ft (Kyanjing Ri) Accommodation: Teahouse

Langtang Valley Trek highlights No need to book a plane! You can drive to this trek within 7 to 8 hours Trek through the Langtang Valley, also known as the ‘Valley of Glaciers’ Climb Tserko Ri for its stunning scenic views. View of snow-capped mountains such as Langtang Ri, Langtang, Langsisa and Ganjala Peak Experience Tibetan Buddhist culture and life firsthand Walkthrough spectacular rhododendron forests Collect blessings at old Buddhist shrines such as Langtang Gompa and Kyanjing Gompa Stay in interesting teahouses along the route One of the lesser-known treks in Nepal Although the Langtang Valley can be reached by a day’s drive from the Kathmandu Valley, this area remains unknown to most trekkers.

While many recognize the names Everest Base Camp Trek, Annapurna Circuit, and Annapurna Base Camp Trek, few recognize the name Langtang Valley Trek.

Dominated by the Langtang Himalayas, this valley trek is relatively short but runs through rhododendrons and bamboo forests alongside thundering waterfalls and stunning snow-capped mountains.

The trail takes you to an altitude of 4,000m /13,123 ft, and if you want to go higher, you’d not want to miss seeing the sunrise from the Tserko Ri at 5,000m / 16,404 ft.

This diverse trek introduces you to the Tamangs and Sherpas Buddhist culture. The ancient monastery of Kyanjin Gompa, situated near Tserko, upholds this tradition. The spectacular views on this trek include Dorje Lakpa (6,990m / 22,933 ft), Langtang Ri (6,370m / 20,898 ft), and Langtang Lirung (7,245m / 23,769 ft).

The trek passes through Langtang National Park, a pristine countryside with majestic flora and fauna, yak pastures, and local cheese factories! Himalayan pheasants, deer, bears, monkeys, and the elusive red panda are native to this region.

Langtang Village was utterly destroyed during the April 2015 earthquake. The resilient locals have been rebuilding; teahouses and lodges have been rebuilt and opened. The best way for people to help us continue visiting this area.

This is a perfect trek for those who want to explore this off-beat track and see something completely different from many of the country’s more touristy areas.

Similarly, this is the perfect introduction for those discovering Nepal for the first time.

Everest Base Camp Trekking: A Journey to the Roof of the World

Introduction to Everest Base Camp Trekking Everest is the highest mountain in the world, standing tall at 8,848 meters (29,029 feet). Many people dream of reaching the base of this giant, and Everest Base Camp Trekking is one of the most popular ways to do it. This trek takes you to a place that many mountaineers start their journey before climbing the big mountain. The trek is challenging, but it’s also an incredible adventure through stunning landscapes and culture.

Starting Your Trek: Lukla and Phakding The adventure begins in Lukla, a small mountain town with an airport that has one of the most exciting runways in the world. After landing in Lukla, you start your trek by walking through the village of Phakding. The trail here is gentle, and you’ll walk through beautiful forests and past small villages. You’ll also get your first glimpse of the snow-capped peaks, which will make you excited for what’s ahead.

The Long Climb to Namche Bazaar The trek gets a bit tougher as you head towards Namche Bazaar, the biggest town in the Khumbu region. Namche is a colorful place where trekkers rest and acclimatize. Acclimatization is important to help your body adjust to the high altitude. During the walk to Namche, you’ll cross several suspension bridges and pass through lush forests filled with rhododendron flowers. The climb can be tiring, but the views are worth it, and when you reach Namche, you’ll feel proud of how far you’ve come.

Acclimatization in Namche Bazaar Namche Bazaar is more than just a rest stop. It's the perfect place to help your body adjust to the altitude. You can take short hikes around Namche, such as a visit to the Everest View Hotel. From there, you’ll have an amazing view of Mount Everest, Lhotse, and other beautiful peaks. It’s a great spot to take pictures and enjoy the incredible beauty of the Himalayas.

On to Tengboche Monastery After Namche, the trek becomes a bit more challenging as you head towards Tengboche. This village is home to one of the most famous monasteries in the Khumbu region. Tengboche Monastery is surrounded by towering peaks, including Everest and Ama Dablam. Here, you can watch the monks perform their daily rituals and experience the spiritual side of the mountains. The peaceful atmosphere and stunning views make it a highlight of the trek.

Reaching Dingboche and Pheriche As you continue, you’ll pass through Dingboche and Pheriche, both high-altitude villages. These places are quiet, with only a few homes, but the views are incredible. The air gets thinner as you climb higher, and you’ll need to take it slow to avoid altitude sickness. In these villages, you can take short walks to explore and get used to the higher elevations. It’s also a good time to drink plenty of water and stay healthy.

Final Push to Everest Base Camp After Dingboche, the trek gets tougher as you head towards Everest Base Camp. The trail leads you to Lobuche, and then finally to Gorak Shep, a small settlement where you will rest before your big day. From Gorak Shep, you make the final push to Everest Base Camp. This part of the trek is tough but very rewarding. When you reach Base Camp, you’ll feel like you’ve accomplished something incredible. You’ll be standing at the foot of the world’s tallest mountain, surrounded by towering peaks and glaciers.

The Return Journey After reaching Everest Base Camp, many trekkers choose to head back down the same trail. The return journey might feel faster, but you still get to enjoy the beautiful scenery and villages. You’ll stop in places like Namche Bazaar again before heading back to Lukla to catch your flight home. While the trek might be over, the memories of Everest Base Camp will stay with you forever.

Conclusion Everest Base Camp Trekking is an unforgettable adventure. It’s a journey that takes you through some of the most beautiful and remote places on Earth. Even though it’s challenging, the rewards are worth it: stunning views, fascinating culture, and the feeling of standing at the base of the world’s highest peak. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced trekker, Everest Base Camp Trekking is a dream come true for anyone who loves adventure.

How much does it cost to do Langtang Trek for 7 days?

Langtang Valley Trek Overview

The Langtang Valley Trek is an exciting Himalayan trek that guides trekkers through the unspoiled countryside of Langtang National Park. Famed for its breathtaking mountain vistas, rich Tamang culture, and diverse flora and fauna, the trek is arguably one of the most rewarding short treks in Nepal. Langtang Valley Trekking starts from Syabrubesi and reaches Kyanjin Gompa, offering stunning views of Langtang Lirung (7,227m) and other peaks. The trek is moderate in difficulty and appropriate for those looking for a less crowded option to Everest or Annapurna treks. With picturesque villages, monasteries, and green forests along the route, Langtang trekking offers the perfect blend of nature and culture.

What are highlights of Langtang Valley Trek?

Langtang Valley Trek provides spectacular scenery, dense Tamang and Tibetan-influenced culture, and spectacular mountain vistas. The trek goes through Langtang National Park, which is home to varied wildlife like red pandas and Himalayan black bears. Kyanjin Gompa, an old Buddhist monastery, is a prominent cultural highlight. Trekkers may also explore the Langtang Glacier and Tserko Ri (5,000m) for views of the Himalayas. The warm hospitality of the local Tamang people and their ethnic villages further beautify the Langtang trek. The integration of nature, culture, and adventure makes Langtang trekking one of Nepal's most satisfying adventures into the core Himalayas of Nepal in Langtang region.

Where does the Langtang Valley Trek begin and end?

Langtang Valley Trek starts at Syabrubesi, a town about 7-8 hours' drive from Kathmandu. The hike follows the Langtang River, passing Langtang Village and Lama Hotel to arrive in Kyanjin Gompa. After Kyanjin Gompa and surrounding viewpoints like Tserko Ri, trekkers hike back the same route to Syabrubesi. The hike lasts 6-9 days depending on the itinerary. Syabrubesi is both the start and end point of Langtang Valley Trekking, and this makes logistics simple compared to Langtang  Circuit hikes.

What kind of accommodation is available in  Langtang Valley Trek?

Accommodation on the Langtang Valley Trek is in the form of teahouses, which are simple but clean. Rooms are plain with twin beds, blankets, and shared toilets. Attached toilets are available in some teahouses in Kyanjin Gompa. Lower-altitude villages have more luxurious lodges, while higher-altitude ones are less so. Though the accommodation is simple, the warmth and hospitality of the teahouse owners make the experience welcoming and warm. A sleeping bag must be carried by trekkers for added warmth, particularly in cold seasons during Langtang Valley Trek.

 What kind of food is available on the Langtang trek?

Langtang trekking trail teahouses provide various meals such as Nepali, Tibetan, and plain Western food. The typical meal is dal bhat (rice, lentils, vegetables), a healthy and energy-filled meal. Other meals available are Tibetan bread, momo (dumplings), noodles, fried rice, and porridge. At higher altitudes, less and more costly food is due to transport difficulties. Trekkers also get to enjoy yak cheese at Kyanjin Gompa where there is a local cheese factory. Vegetarian food should be consumed to avoid digestive issues at high altitudes. Vegetairan and vegan items also available in the menu provided by local lodges on the Langtang valley trekking trail.

What are the transportation options to get the Langtang trekking trailhead?

The most common way of getting to Syabrubesi, the start of Langtang Valley Trek, is by road. Daily buses and jeeps come from Kathmandu and take 7-8 hours.

Since there are no flights, road travel is the only option.

What are the permits needed for Langtang Valley Trekking?

Trekkers need two permits for Langtang trekking: the Langtang National Park Entry Permit (NPR 3,000 for foreigners) and TIMS (Trekkers' Information Management System) card (NPR 2,000). These required permits can be bought either in Kathmandu or on entry to the park at Dhunche. The permits go towards conservation work and safety monitoring.

It is highly recommended to obtain the entry permits from Kathmandu before you head to the trailhead, Syabrubesi.

How difficult is the Langtang trek?

Langtang Valley Trek is moderately challenging. Although the trek does not require technical mountaineering skills, daily elevation gain and intricacies in the terrain make it challenging. Trekkers need to be prepared for 5-7 hours of trekking each day.

What is the best time to do the Langtang Valley Trek?

The best season for Langtang trek is spring (March-May) and autumn (September-November). Spring offers flowering rhododendrons, a wide range of plants, and autumn boasts clear skies with stable weather.  Langtang Valley Trek in Winter (December-February) is chilly but still possible, with snow-covered paths creating scenery.

Lunch and dinner meals are not normally covered in the Langtang Valley Trek Package and cost between USD 5 to 10 per meal. The hot shower, Wi-Fi, battery charging, and drinking water come with an added expense, which is between USD 1 to 5 each.

Hidden expenses in Langtang Valley Trek may be porter charges if required (USD 20–25 daily), guides' and porters' tips (USD 30–50), and possible emergency costs such as additional nights or helicopter evacuation upon altitude sickness. Some extra cash must always be kept, as there are no ATMs in the Langtang area after Syabrubesi
