Tamang Heritage Trail passes through culturally rich and traditional Tamang villages in Langtang region near Tibetian boarder. Tamang are the indigenous inhabitant of Himalayas of Nepal. Their unchanged lifestyle since the beginning of the settlement  has made this trial interesting . Their warm welcome, their traditional mountain houses, ancient monasteries, Gompas add color to this trek.  Even if high peaks are not so close, this trek is less crowded with outstanding views.

Most of the villages in other Trekking trail has completely been transformed because of the guest houses and hotels built for Trekking business. But Tamang Heritage Trail, being a newly opened Trekking Trail, contains villages that are still the real ones. People living a traditional lifestyle raising livestock, farming, making baskets from bamboo are seen while passing the trail. Trekkers will have a chance to get in touch with the interesting Tamang tradition in this trek. If the trekking is done during the festival time like Loshar the trekkers can also enjoy traditional Syabru dance, Khamba dance and other wonderful performances . These performances are also done based on the trekkeers request. Another amazing factor of this trek is the natural hot spring located at Tatopani. Tatopani is said to have medicinal and healing power that is beneficial for blood purification and Rheumatism.  

The starting point of Tamang Heritage Trail is Syabrubesi  which is reached after a short drive from Kathmandu.
