Tamangs is one of the indigenous communities peoples
The Tamangs are considered as one of the indigenous communities of the hilly region who live between 5,000-7,000 ft high above sea level. The indigenous societies are what ethnobiologist Gary Paul Nabhan terms .cultures of habitat. They are human communities that have a long history of interaction with a particular kind
of terrain and its wildlife. (Nabhan, 1997,p.3; in Willow, 2011, p.116). Because the natural resources used by indigenous people today are often the same as those used by generations of ancestors indigenous communities tend to misuse these resources with a high degree of cultural significance.

Otherwise, there are plenty of very nice guesthouses on the rest of the trip. The Tamang Heritage section of the trek involves daily ascents and descents of 500-1000 m. The Langtang portion is a more-or-less upward climb to Kyanjin, the final destination and highest point on the trek at 3860m (you can take day walks from there to higher altitudes).
