The Langtang valley is surrounded by high peaks of great appeal. It has become famous ever since the British mountaineer Bill Tilman described it as the most beautiful valley in the world. The highest peak in this area is Shisapangma or Gosaithan 8027m in Tibet. The course from the Langtang valley to Gosaikund is full of diversity and it is attracting many tourists. The Langtang valley is also known as the treasure house of Alpine plants. The whole valley is covered with flowers during the summer.A visit to the Langtang valley offers an opportunity to explore Tamang culture and villages, climb small peaks and visit glaciers at a more comfortable altitude than other trekking regions. A day to rest at Kyangjin Gompa allows time for exploration of the extensive glacier system in the higher valley and small peak climbs.
