It’s possible to continue on your trek from the Everest region into Langtang & Helambu via Panch Pokhari and the glaciated 5308 m Tilman pass. The crossing of the pass is quite technical and involves the need of mountain equipment like ropes and crampons. Your efforts will be rewarded: the views from the pass are spectacular and you can see straight into Tibet. The descent from the pass takes you from gigantic glaciers to a very different world of alpine meadows and cheese factories.
The trail continues through the Langtang Valley and the verdant gorge of the Langtang Khola. Rhododendrons blend into moss-hung pine trees and you’ll encounter occasional yaks trundling down pastures on their way home. Keep an eye out for Blue Poppy flowers, families of playful langur monkeys and the iridescent Impeyan pheasant, the national bird of Nepal.
The areas in and around Langtang Valley and Kyanjin Gompa were severely damaged by the earthquakes in 2015. Today trails and tourism facilities are under construction and trekkers have started to revisit this area.
