Itinerary

Manaslu Circuit Trek is the best choice of alternative hiking trail of Annapurna Circuit Trek as the road construction has threatened its reputation. During the journey the trip pass through dominantly Hindu communities in the first few days and with lush green subtropical valleys with villages and terraced farming lands in lower elevation. From the beginning, we hike along the Budhi Gandaki River taking you through distinct regional scenery of rivers, waterfalls, flora, fauna and above all - mountains. In Higher elevations, we trek through Buddhist influenced Nup Ri meaning "western mountain" area. The people’s language, culture and dresses resemble to Tibetan as they are direct descendant of Tibetan and are very proud of their unique cultural heritage having strong sense of preserving their culture. In the trail, after Jagat we enter to the Tibetan Buddhist influenced villages as we can see people of Shyo, Lho and Samagaun villages are identify them a lot closer with Tibet and have actually been part of Tibet in history.
