Ruby Valley Trek – 7 Days
About this experience
The Ruby Valley threads the Ganesh Himal foothills between the Manaslu and Langtang regions — Tamang and Gurung villages, the Pangsang pass at 3,830 m, and a horizon of unclimbed peaks. Close to Kathmandu, almost entirely unvisited. Guide, homestay and lodge nights, and transport from Kathmandu included.

Traveller reviews
A once-in-a-lifetime route, and every hard hour was worth it. They adjusted one day for the weather and explained exactly why.
Sunrise over the Himalayas was worth every single early start. Our guide set a sensible pace and checked on everyone each evening.
We passed through small villages we'd never have found on our own. Briefing was thorough and the kit list they sent was spot on.
