Tamang Heritage Trek

Tamang heritage trek is a special culture heritage trail trekking route that highlights an ancient rich cultural heritage of the Tamang people in Langtang valley – a Tibetan origin ethnic group. Previously a restricted region near the Tibetan border, the unexplored northern Langtang valley has recently been developed into the Tamang Heritage Trail.

Tamang are Tibetan Buddhists as are most of the inhabitants in the upper Himalayan region. Their religion is traditionally Bon Lamaism; a fusion of Shamanism and Buddhism. Tamang may be derived from the word Tamag, where Ta means “horse” and Mag means “soldier” in Tibetan.                                                                                              The Tamang Heritage trail delivers that and more. Immerse in rich Tibetan/Tamang cultural practices and traditions whilst meandering these scenic villages. Visit ancient monasteries, partake in a home-stay experience and bathe in natural hot springs. This easy trek also offers sensational views of Tibet and Langtang mountains and valleys.

The people in this area are mostly of Tamang whose culture and crafts have remained unchanged . All these craftsmanship, dress, traditionally built stone households and the beautifully carved wooden porches reflect the solitude and the serenity of the Himalayan profile at its best.
