Nepal Telecom (NTC) has launched its 4G mobile network in the Langtang Kyanjin trail. The launch of this high-speed mobile data service will promote connectivity, tourism, and local businesses at the popular trekking route.
The Langtang-Kyanjin trekking route is the closest Himalayan trekking destination from Kathmandu. NT says that the 4G connectivity on the route helps users to connect with their family and friends during their adventurous expedition. The fast-data service lets users share their photos and videos on social media and share their experiences easily on their smartphones and other gadgets.
Nepal Telecom launched 4G in Langtang-Kyanjin trail by setting up a mobile tower (base station aka BTS) in the Kanjin Valley. It’s at an altitude of about 3,800 meters above sea level. This shows the company’s commitment to expanding its advanced carrier services even in remote regions. Being a government-backed company, NT makes an effort to ensure service even in rural and remote areas despite the possibility of low to no financial gains. If you were unaware, Nepal Telecom transports telco equipment on helicopters to expand its services.
