MANASLU CIRCUIT TREK(Restricted) 18 days Grade 4
April/May & Sept. - Nov.
Routes in the Manaslu region have only recently been opened to
trekkers.
Starting from the historical township of Gorkha, the trail first
leads
through villages of an old established agricultural society which
explains
the neatly carved paddy fields of the lower Buri Gandaki Valley.
As you ascend to the upper Buri Gandaki, the landscape changes.
There are
stony alpine pastures, buddhist chortens and mani walls. This
area is
inhabited by direct descendants of Tibetan immigrants who have
maintained
their original dress, culture and customs. You cannot get much
closer to
Tibet without actually going there.
From Larkya Pass there are excellent views of all the three peaks
of
Manaslu as well as Ganesh Himal, Himlung Himal, and after crossing
the pass,
views to the west of many giant peaks including 7937m high Annapurna
II.
The trail then descends into the Marsyangdi Valley and leads to
Besi Sahar
for the drive back to Kathmandu.
As this trek leads into a "restricted area" a special permit fee
is payable
and a liaison officer must accompany the group.
PLEASE CONTACT US FOR CURRENT PRICES BASED ON
GROUP OF AT LEAST TWO PERSONS
