Our Tamang Heritage Trail Trek is a 10-day scenic excursion on a circuit route starting and ending at Syabrubesi. The trek begins with a 9-hour panoramic drive from Kathmandu to Syabrubesi, unraveling the scenic landscapes and traditional Himalayan settlements.
From Syabru, you’ll head off to Gatlang and trek via Golijung amidst the picturesque view of Ganesh and Langtang Himal. Beyond the majestic scenery, the trek provides you with cultural insight into the Tamang community through the lens of an ancient monastery.
After Gatlang, the trail weaves through Thangbuchet and ascends to Tatopani crossing the suspension bridge. After making a strenuous ascent to Gongang, the trek offers a small break and continues with an uphill climb to the hot spring.
Day 5 yields an exciting adventure through the rhododendron forest and Brimdang village. The trail winds up at the lush meadow of Nagthali Hill, encircling Kerung, Ganesh Himal, and Shishapangma. At last, it makes a deep dive into Thurman, a village ingrained by Tibetan culture and shamanism.
This trip explores the natural beauty like other Langtang region treks do but also illuminates the rich cultural heritage of the region. The trek to Briddim marks the highlight of the Tamang Heritage Trail Trek for it enlightens you with the Nepali-Tibetan history and culture. The trek offers you a peek into the Tamang culture as you wander through the villages and explore the Dukchu Gompa Monastery.
Here, you’ll get a closer view of Tamang life scenes, wooden homes, and ethnic wear like Ghalek graced by women. Another notable aspect of the village is its traditional customs and festivals like the Dawa Dwangpo Tsechu Festival that shine even in the grip of modernity.
After a well-worth stay at Briddim, the trek descends the forested trail to Syaburbesi, providing a wonderful experience into the wilds. The last day of the trip seeks a restful and scenic ride to Kathmandu.
