Description
If you join me on this absolutely awesome 19-day adventure on the Langtang Helambu Trek, from Kathmandu in Nepal, I guarantee you will experience some of the most breathtaking and jaw-dropping sights imaginable, with the vast mountains, lakes, glaciers, forests and waterfalls never ceasing to amaze, with the added bonus of learning about the unique local cultures we encounter.
The Langtang Helambu Trek is one of the most popular trekking paths in the Nepalese Himalayas, owing to its astonishing variety of landscape, scenery and terrain, as well as the wide array of native and exotic flora and fauna that dot the region.
Our trip begins when we all meet in Kathmandu on day 1, where all relevant safety and general information will be dispensed.
Over the course of the subsequent 16 days, we will be trekking long distances every day, with day 11 involving crossing the Laurebinayak Pass, which at 4610m above sea level is the highest point we reach on the trip.
Every where we look the scenery is absolutely majestic, grand and exquisite, with the plentiful snow-capped peaks looming large over lakes such as Gosaikunda Lake, and the acres upon acres of lush green forest making for an outstanding setting.
There will be ample time to stop and learn about the local cultures, with the famous Sherpa culture and the rural villages of the Tamang culture proving particularly fascinating.
After 16 days of trekking, we finish with a couple of relaxing days back in Kathmandu, hopefully having made you fall even more in love with the unique and gorgeous countryside of Nepal.
This trip is guaranteed to be one of the most memorable times of your life – book now to experience!

What people are saying about Explore-Share
Man
Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!
Maxine
Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
