Round Manaslu (19
Days Kathmandu/Kathmandu)
This is one of the most spectacular
treks in the Himalaya, comparable to the
Annapurna circuit. However, the trek
around Manaslu touches unspoilt regions
since it was off limits until recently.
Now open to organized trekking parties
only, the area offers a good mix of
cultural diversity and fantastic
mountain scenery. Starting at the Buri
Gandaki, the trek goes through the
narrow gorge between the Manaslu and
Ganesh Himal ranges, with steep, almost
perpendicular sides. Passing through the
Nupri valley, where the inhabitants
appear Tibetan in look, speech and
customs, the trail continues parallel to
the Tibetan border, with sensational
views of Manaslu North, Ngadi and
Himalchuli peaks. Crossing the 16000ft
(ca 5250m) Larke La pass, the trek
descends to the Marsyangdi valley, with
fantastic views of Himlung Himal,
Annapurna range and other peaks.
