The Langtang Helambu Trekking takes us to an area of Nepal where the influence of trekkers has not been so great at first. The valley became Nepal's second largest national park in Kakani NepalNepal which was started to conserved from 1976. The park has healthy forests of rhododendron, fir, blue and chir pine and birch. Wildlife in the park includes leopard, musk deer, Himalayan black bear, rhesus and langur monkeys and the endangered red panda. The Bhote Koshi - Trisuli is an important migratory route for birds traveling between India and Tibet. The Langtang valley Gosainkund route may be trekked in either direction.
Pheasants, bush-robins, tesias, bush and leaf warblers, wren-babblers and rose finches can also be readily seen. In April and May bird watching time in the mountains above 2750m is often reduced by low cloud in the afternoons.
