Langtang Valley Trek: Tough trek rewarded with spectacular views - We did a twelve day trek to Langtang Valley with Incredible Treks. We had asked for Lochan Gurung specifically having gone with him the previous year to ABC. As always he was superb and accompanied by two excellent porters, all of them looking after us literally every step of the way and always friendly and helpful. Our group was collected from our hotel in Thamel and we had a seven hour drive to Shyaphru Besi where we stayed the night. We began our trekking the following morning staying at Lama hotel in Gumnachowk that evening after a full days' trekking. We proceeded to Langtang and Kyanjin Gompa. We were based in Kyanjin Kharka for a few days. The views around the town are amazing, glaciers nearby and some snow-covered peaks overlooking the town. There is also a cheese factory and Kyanjin monastery is definitely worth a visit. Unfortunately the cheese factory was closed when we were there, as they had ran out of cheese! The day we arrived in Kyanjin Kharka we also summited Kyanjin Ri Lower that afternoon. The summit treks are tough, even the relatively shorter ones. The following day we had a 3am start on our way to summit Tserko Ri. Strong head torches are a must and then just put one foot in front of the other. Around 6am the sunrise hit the snowy peaks giving us a spectacular yellow-orange reflection. Further on we passed frost-covered yaks and dipped between the warm sunshine and very cold shade. As we got closer to the top patches of snow started appearing and eventually we reached a point where we were navigating through boulders and ice. We needed crampons for this stretch. The top was clear and we had beautiful views of the surrounding peaks. The descent was long and felt tough on the legs and toes. We were planning to set out for Yala Peak the following day but only one of our group were able for it. It was tough. First day is the trek to Yala Peak base camp at 4800m. After a poor nights sleep in very cold conditions at altitude, a 3am start was on for the final ascent climb to the peak. Altitude sickness hit on the descent but it was a very tough achievement accompanied by a mountaineering guide. Gosainkunda lake was ok, it was a very tough trek and Lochan was making sure we all made it there. The lake itself was a bit disappointing having had some of the most amazing views of my life on the ascent to Hotel Mount Rest in Laurebina. To sum up - Lochan and his team took great care of us all the way, always there to assist and always with a smile on their faces.

EPIC TREK ORGANIZER - We went with INCREDIBLE TREKS for 5 main reasons :- 1. Private and small group 2. Top-notch communication 3. Excellent value 4. Fabulous reputation 5. Awesome trek experience and track record Our hunger for a long outdoor winter trek in a remote and priceless location had been simmering for a while, and we finally found a great trek after long communication and personal meeting many months ago. We then picked LANGTANG/GOSAINKUNDA area for its remote location, contrasting landscapes, authentic culture and mix of physical challenges for instance :- • Big vistas • Large mountain pass • Lovely valley • Roaring rivers • Expansive glacier The payments were transferred, air tickets booked and we finished shopping. Since all treks to Nepal invariably start and end in hotel stays, we had an amazing time checking-in to their own almost new hotel in Thamel and the stays & food/drinks were fabulous although the place is tiny. We were fortunate to have the owner Umesh himself agree to our request to conduct and lead the trek, and this became a mind boggling, authentic, sustainable and unique cultural exchange with the people we met and the owners of the tea houses we stayed. The philosophy and chemistry between us was electric. He found the best tea-houses, the best routes, the best food, the best transport, the best photography, the best money transactions, amidst the weather challenges. We changed course, we changed a bad tea-house, we found a shorter route to save time, and we found time to squeeze in some side hikes as well. The mix of physical challenges was exhilarating as we were mostly city dwellers with zero mountaineering experience but little trekking experience. But we overcame it all and made this huge event happen. We have checked off another peak now, and the joy of trekking completely transformed us, enriched us mentally, and made us healthy and resilient. Five stars are not enough !

Fabulous Trek - Fantastic trek led by the fantastic Lochan Gurung and our two porters John and Nabin. We trekked for 12 days and it was a beautiful experience, Lochan and the team looked after everything and we felt very well care for along the way. This is a tough trek as we walked on average 7 - 8 hours a day and climbed 2 peeks including Kyanjin Gompa and Tsergo, however the scenery and views were worth the effort. The weather was perfect, with bright clear days turning colder at night. The scale of the mountains, the beautiful river, the Yaks & Naks, birds and wild life were fantastic sights. Last year we trekked to ABC, with the same company which was fantastic, but our Langtang experience exceeded our expectations.

Warmth and feeling safe. - I have taken trips with this company 2 times. The guide and porter took very good care of me. The guide is knowledgeable about health care in the highlands. I was warm and felt very safe.

Enjoys Trekking Nepal - This is our second time using Incredible's services for a trek in Nepal. This time, we specifically requested Lochan Gurung as our guide, the same guide we had on our previous Annapurna Base Camp trip. We also had two porters, Arjune and Nawaraj, for this trek. They all provided excellent service and support, making our trek enjoyable and reassuring. We highly recommend choosing this team for your Nepal trek.

Wonderful Langtang - I felt like it was a brand new experience trekking along the Langtang trail. Lochan Gurung he is my guide took excellent care of us, and the porters Arjune and Nawaraj were so friendly and supportive. If I ever plan to go again, I would definitely choose this team once more. Highly recommended!

The Journey to Annapurna Base Camp: An Adventure of a Lifetime - The tour guide (Big Bro Shiva), Porter Bros (Samir, Indra, Ram, Sandip), and My Củ Cải - Rajesh were remarkable. They always greeted us with smiles in the early morning. Their strength and endurance were truly inspiring. They not only managed our luggage but also contributed to the positive and encouraging atmosphere of the group. All of them went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and enjoyment. They were attentive to our needs very carefully, offering help and support whenever required, and made every effort to make our journey as smooth and enjoyable as possible. I really respect them and thank them for all.

Very impressive!! - I have been there in 2017 at Langtang valley. It was a long time ago but I am still remember a good experience with this company. Our guides: Mister M, Rajendra took a good care and had a good problem-solving. If I have a chance to go there again, I will choose this company for our group.
