Highlights
• Cross one of the highest passes in the world - at Larkya La Pass at 5,106 meters
• Explore typical Tibetan and Gurung villages in this culturally fascinating region
• Enjoy this trek that is off the beaten path featuring a diverse and impressive landscape Manaslu Trekking.
Manaslu Valley Trek is a remote and spectacular trek with steep tracks and beautiful views throughout the trek.
It is culturally fascinating with strong links to Tibet in the upper Buri Gandaki (called Nupri ‘the western mountains’) and the Tsum Valley, and even includes the Larkya La (5106 m) as a challenge. The views of Mt Manaslu, the eighth highest mountain in the world, are marvelous and spellbinding.
