The Ruby Valley Trek is a golden opportunity to explore Nepal’s geological and cultural diversity, especially in Langtang National Park and Manaslu Conservation Area. We start from the lowland, flat plans near Syabrubesi and move through the inspiring terraced rice fields near the Tamang village of Gatlang. We soon pass the 200-meter tall Chukarma Waterfall ascending through the vibrant rhododendron forests. Trekking forward, we will reach a point at which snow-capped mountains like Ganesh Himal (7422m), Langtang Lirung (7227m), Hiunchuli (6441m), Dorje Lakpa (6966m), and other towering peaks of central and western Nepal will surround us. This place has a strong possibility of mining crystals like ruby and zinc, which are precious minerals. We can find red pandas, snow leopards, bears, tigers, wolves, pheasants, and many types of monkeys and deer as wildlife here. As said before, we can experience great cultural diversity throughout the trek. We will pass through Tamang, Gurung, Newar, Chhetri, Brahmin, and Chepang villages and stay there. Accommodation during the trek will mainly be in a homestay facility, which will get you close to local cultures. The trek goes through foothills and lowland terraced farmlands to ethnic Tamang villages. We will get a chance to enjoy the splendid close views of Ganesh Himal, Langtang, Boudha Himal, Hiunchuli, and other peaks of the central Himalayas. The highest altitude on this trek is the Pangsang pass is 3850m (above sea level), one of the finest views on this trek.
