Manaslu Trek
Manaslu Trek Itinearary
Manaslu meaning the mountain of soul, is one of the imminent
geographical charismas dominating the historical kingdom
of Gorkha. Its snow capped conical body sores 8,156m above
the sea level to form two cylindrical horns that still
appears as a god appeased by daily worship to the local
people which otherwise would bring natural catastrophe.
Locally Manaslu is known as Pungen Ri whose embodiment
is worshiped in a Gompa couple of hundred meter above
the village of Sama Goan.
Round Manaslu trek is an amalgamation of rich culture,
adventure, scenic beauty and rudimental rural civilization
that represents ancient Tibetan lifestyle. This newly
opened trek encircling the entire Manaslu massif, offers
a chance to comprehensively explore the full range of
Nepals natural and cultural diversity.
As we start trekking from historic center of Gorkha,
central Himalayan Range appears in the backdrop with layering
green hills and view of sweeping Valleys. As we head up
towards the Mt. Manaslu, the trail reveals unexplored
country inhabited by Gurungs. The trail eventually circumvents
Mt. Manaslu crossing Larkya Pass (5,100m) and comes down
to classical route of Annapurna. Here you can either continue
trekking Around Annapurna crossing another arduous pass
of Throng La (5,416m) or come back to Kathmandu.
