Trekking with the towering peaks, forest with red rhododendrons, suspicious bridge and snow leopard sighting is what you get in this trek.
Tamang Heritage trail lies in a restricted area previously and was opened up to visitors lately. Tamang people in this trail are culturally closer to Tibetan culture, that’s because it touches the border of Tibet in the north. Tamang is an ethnic group of Nepal, hugely settled on the lap of Langtang range, migrated from Burma via Tibet during the 7th/8th centuries.
