Teahouse Trekking in Langtang Region

TEAHOUSE TREKKING

Teahouse Trekking is a form of trekking where a person or a trekker stays in a tea house rather than in a camp. Anybody willing to trek in Nepal must choose between Camp trekking and Teahouse trekking. Teahouse Trekking is one of the best ways to gather trekking experience in Nepal in a comfortable and fun way. Teahouse trekking also lets you interact with various people living in different parts of the country.

Initially, when trekking was just introduced in Nepal, teahouses used to serve the trekkers with tea and other refreshments but now the scenario has totally changed. While comparing teahouse trekking with the camping, the former one is cheaper as you won’t have to spend money on tents, food and burners.

TEAHOUSE TREKKING IN LANGTANG REGION

Talking about trekking in Langtang region, the Langtang region provides the trekkers with the amazing view of evergreen forests, turbulent waterfalls, spectacular view of Himalayas and cascading waterfalls. It not only gives you the pleasure to enjoy the Himalayas but it also serves you with the sound view of sub alpine forest with unique patchwork of vegetation  due to change in geography, elevation and complex topography. Trekking in Langtang region showcases the colorful religion, tradition and culture of the ethnic groups living on the back dropped of stunning mountain scenarios.

If you are someone interested in trekking but not physically able to walk a long distance then, teahouse trekking in Langtang region is best suited for you. The Langtang region is near and  easily accessible from Kathmandu. You do not have to drive for a long period of time and you won’t even get exhausted from your road trip. Dutring your trekking experience in Langtang region, you will find a number of teahouses at every different steps of the trek. They all serve you with quality food and comfortable accommodation as well.

Most of the teahouses in this region only provides vegetarian food so if you want to consume more of a protein than I would suggest you to carry some protein bars with you. As you will be living there in a teahouse, you do not have to worry about sleeping bag, the owners will provide you with warm blankets and pillows. There is guarantee of Wi-Fi in most of these tea houses. You can carry Ncell sim cards with you which works up to the Lama Hotel. And if you want to use data above the Lama Hotel than you should opt for the sky network. Though they do not have Wi-Fi but they do have landlines which you can use for a fixed rate. You will get to use proper Wi-Fi only after you are down to Syabrubesi.

The night stay cost or the rate of the rooms of those tea houses are real cheap but owners tend to make profit out of food and accommodation. So be sure about what you want to order for food. The room will cost normally between 300-400 Nepali rupees per night and along with food and accommodation, it will cost you from 2000 to 4000 Nepali rupees for two people per night.

Teahouse trekking is one of the newest form of trekking and its pseudo –culture experience is what makes it better than hotel and lodges. Teahouse trekking is definitely economic and budget friendly as well.
