Very nice treckking in the beautiful valley of Langtang. You will need about 3 days from Shyabru Bensi (1350 m) to Kyangjin Ghompa village (3870m). The way is easy and  you will never get lost. But you have to climb at nearly 4000 m, that means thin air. Also it may be really cold in Kyangjin Ghompa at night time, in November we had ice. On the way you pass Langtang village, where you probably want to stay one more day.

I can recommend climing 5000 m  peak of Tserko Ri. The way is steep (1000 m high), but you need no mountaineering technique, and  the last 80 m you have to do some easy climbing.  The view from the summit to the surrounded mountains and Glaciers is breathtaking.

Barbara and me did that treck in November 2009 together with porterguide Nima. If you are looking for some independend and private Guide and porter we can heartly recommend Nima. He is living in the rural Langtang village of Thulo Shabru (2400 m), so you will get much of information about Nepal living and Langtang area. Maybe after the treck you have time to relax  some days with Nima and his friendly wife Maja. Here is a contact adress
