Trip Detail
The Tamang Heritage trail is located towards the north of Katmandu between Langtang and the Ganesh Himal. This is an exciting new trekking route easily accessible from Kathmandu and the trail passes through traditional Tamang villages experiencing Tamang culture, rituals and lifestyle where you will receive a warm welcome by the locals rich in their distinct colorful costumes. A culturally rich region steeped in Tibetan tradition, the local Tamang people are some of the warmest and most welcoming people in Nepal. The people of this region are mostly Tibetans who came from Kerung in Tibet across the border and settled in Nepal so the culture and traditions of these people are similar to Tibet just across the border.
The trekking trail goes north towards the Tibetan borderlands enjoying a relatively gentle trek through picturesque villages, terraced fields, and peaceful valleys where only the most discerning trekkers go. During the trek, you will enjoy panoramic mountain views of the nearby peaks and soak in the natural hot springs at Tatopani. Continuing north towards Tibet you will soak up the heritage and appreciate a local fort, monastery and exquisite local architecture of the Tamang homes adorned with beautiful woodcarvings. This is an off the beaten track journey, which highlights an ancient lifestyle combining it with picturesque scenery and healing baths in natural hot springs.
