Trekking around Manaslu offers a unique opportunity to experience an “untouched” region of Nepal.
This region of Nepal sees still only a few trekkers, which makes a visit here more exclusive and unspoiled. Manaslu trekking has been open since 1991; it provides spectacular beauty along the border of Nepal and Tibet and is now a controlled trekking route, allowing organized trekking group’s with special permits to gain entry into this region to venture round its spectacular circuit. Manaslu has a unique environment, which is exceptionally rich in bio-diversity.
The name Manaslu means “The Spirit-Mountain” in the local dialect, referring to the benevolent and strong deity, which dwells within. Trekking in Manaslu is a really delightful adventure.
