The trail largely runs through Langtang National Park, a well-preserved habitat for Red Panda, Himalayan Thar, Himalayan Bear, Langur Monkey, Snow Leopard, Wild Dog, Serow, and around 300 bird species such as Himalayan Monal, Snow Pigeon, Tibetan Snowcock, and Scarlet Rosefinch. The park also includes the Bon Po Monastery, which practices Tibetan Buddhism.

Following the April 2015 earthquake, which completely destroyed Langtang Village, the Langtang community has once again come together to revitalize tourism in the area. Houses, lodges, and hotels are progressively being built in Langtang Village, and the walking trail to the village has reopened following repairs and maintenance.
