Manaslu Circuit Trek

Deep amidst the wilderness of Nepal lies the revered Manaslu region which garners the
attention of thrill-seekers from across the globe. Its remoteness and seclusion from the
outside world adds mystique to its appearance and being home to the mighty Mount
Manaslu (8163m), the Manaslu Circuit Trek embodies this authenticity and explores the
magnificence. Venture into the untainted remoteness of Manaslu to experience the harmony
between nature and man, Tibetan-Buddhist culture, and cross astounding passes.
Briefly acquaint yourself with the major UNESCO World Heritage Sites in the Kathmandu
valley, and then hop on a ride leading to Soti Khola. Be amazed at the sheer volume of the
Budi Gandaki River and share some pleasantry at Arughat. Navigate through the sandy
riverbanks and minor settlement of Lapubesi to reach Machha Khola. Rejuvenate the tired
soul at the hot springs of Tatopani and then follow the trail leading to Jagat. Climb some
stone steps and then descend to Sirdibas. Cross the villages of Philim and Ekle Bhatti to
reach Deng, and after praying at some Gumbas along the way, we make a stop at
Namrung. Relish the dazzling scenery of the Manaslu, Manaslu north, and walls filled with
Buddhist texts on the PungGyen monastery. Descend on the Budi Gandaki River, and follow
the trail that leads to Dharmasala. As you replenish your mind and body, head forward to
the dangerous yet thrilling Larkya La Pass (5160m). Its ascent may be difficult, but the
unblemished view of the enigmatic mountain landscape is something worth the toil.
Relishing the sights of Larkya glacier, Himlung Himal, we head towards Bimthang and from
there the return journey starts. Walk along the path of the DudhKhola to arrive at Tilije, and
later cross rhododendron filled forests to arrive at Tal. A long drive from Tal takes us to
Kathmandu by going through Besisahar where our long journey shall come to an end.
