Thier attires, festivals, rituals, language and occupation are so traditional and beautiful that every trekker on this cultural trek in Nepal would cherish every moment. The ancient and sacred monasteries where pure Tibetan Buddhism is practiced is inspiring highlight of Tamang Heritage Trek. Moreover, the landscapes dominated by the Ganesh Himal & Langtang Lirung blended with lush vegetation of Langtang National Park and highland lakes is the prime natural highlight of the trek.
