Manaslu Circuit Trek – 14 days

The Manaslu Circuit Trek is a breathtaking adventure in the Himalayas. The trek offers a unique
and less crowded alternative to the more popular Annapurna and Everest treks. It trek is named
after the eighth highest mountain, Mount Manaslu (8163m). The trek takes you through diverse
landscapes, traditional villages, and stunning vistas of dazzling mountains.
Upon arrival in Kathmandu (KTM), we check the trekking gear and clothing, which are key
factors in making the journey comfortable, safe, and successful. As Kathmandu city is home to
many UNESCO World Heritage sites, we offer a day of sightseeing. The next day, the journey
starts for trekking. The trekkers embark on a journey that promises unparalleled experiences of
both natural and cultural richness. The trail winds through lush green forests, terraced fields,
and picturesque villages. Sherpas, Tibetans, and Gurungs are the main inhabitants of the
region, each with their own unique traditions, culture, and lifestyle. The welcoming nature of
the local people makes the journey even more memorable.
The trekking route is located in the Manaslu Conservation Area, which is home to hundreds of
thousands of flora and fauna. One of the highlights of the Manaslu Circuit Trek is crossing the
Larkya La Pass (5160m), a challenging yet rewarding feat that offers panoramic views of the
surrounding mountains. Throughout the trek, trekkers have the opportunity to immerse
themselves in the local culture, interact with friendly people, and visit ancient monasteries.
During the trek, accommodation is managed in local tea houses and comfortable lodges, which
provide healthy and hygienic meals.
The trek requires a moderate to high level of fitness and stamina, but the rewards are well
worth the effort. It’s essential to be well-prepared and equipped for variable weather
conditions and rugged terrain. Our professional trekking guides and porters, who are well
experienced and certified by the government, make your dream come true. We recommend
doing the Manaslu Circuit Trek during the months of spring and autumn. During these times,
the weather is favorable and stable, presenting clear skies.
