Trekking in Langtang (Nepal), who'd like to join?
So I am going to Nepal in April and have already planned a hiking-tour of 15 days through the Langtang-area. The guide for this hiking-tour says that it'd be cheaper for me if I would arrange some people to join the tour. Since we then split the costs for hiring him. And also, I would just like to meet some new, adventurous people! So, that's why I am posting this! Since people from Reddit are cool people :) Who would like to join?
When? Departure: 23th of April. Duration: 15 days. Where? Langtang Maximum altitude: 5605 m Accomodation: tea houses Difficulty: moderate to strenuous Costs: don't know for sure, since the price depends on how many people join, but PM me for this.
For the exact information please send me a message. Since it's prohibited to post links, etc. on this subreddit (and I don't want this post to look like an advertisement).
I booked the hiking via a local Nepali agency, of which I have met the Sherpa owner before in Nepal. I know him via my parents so that should be all right. Also the agency says that they pay a lot of attention to sustainability, so that is also a plus, I think. Langtang is hit badly by the earthquake, and you can still see the scars from this. So by hiking through this area you kind of support the local community too, the guide told me.
So with who are you hiking with? Hi! I am a 21-years-old guy from The Netherlands. I graduated last year in my bachelor Journalism and now I saved some money to travel. This will be my first solo journey, probably for 4 months (whoo, excited). I've been in Nepal before for two months, but that was for volunteering, with a friend. I like photography, urbexing, making video's, going to indie/electronic-festivals, playing and hearing music, soccer, playing squash, running and just chilling with friends.
I am pretty calm and a bit laidback I guess. But still social, open-minded and adventurous! So not really the type who will keep talking, while you'd like to enjoy the peace and rest of nature of Nepal :)
For the tempo of the hike: I do sports, but I'm not really the stereotype 'sporty type'. Also this will be my first long hikes. I've done ones before, but only for one or two days. But since the level of the hike is not too hard and I am in a pretty healthy shape, the tempo won't be too slow also.
Sooooo, are you interested now, don't hesitate to PM me and I will send you some more information about the hike. Also about the costs. And then it's up to you!
