Overview

Manaslu (8,163 m/26,781 ft), also known as Kutang is the eighth-highest mountain in the world. It is located in the Mansiri Himalayan Range in the west-central part of Nepal. Its name, which means "mountain of the spirit", comes from the Sanskrit word Manasa, meaning "intellect" or "soul.
We, Namaste Nepal Trekking & Research Hub consider the Manaslu Reason among the best trekking reason in Nepal. Despite its recent rise in popularity, the Manaslu Trek remains remote and off-the-beaten-path compared to the better-known teahouse treks in Nepal.

The trek takes you around Manaslu, the world's eighth-highest mountain at 8,163 meters. The Manaslu Reason is one of the “Best Kept Secret” trekking areas of Nepal. It is far less crowded than other well-known peers Everest Base Camp and Annapurna Circuit. There are still about 10 times fewer trekkers on the Manaslu Trail.

The trek is wild and remote. The first part of the trail follows the Budi Gandaki, a deep, long river gorge, with many suspension bridges. As we go higher we will experience the culture of Gurung people living on the lap of the Himalayas. Manaslu has a lot to offer to the trekkers, from the beautiful scenery of the majestic Himalayan Ranges and high altitude glassier lakes to rich biological and cultural diversity as we trek from the subtropical jungle at lower elevations, through the Himalayan foothills to the high, cold and challenging crossing of the Larkya La at an elevation of 5,106m/16,752 ft, The highest point reached along the trek route is which is widely believed to be one of the most dramatic passes crossing the Himalayas. 

Outline Itinerary of Manaslu Circuit Trek


Our suggested itinerary starting from Kathmandu and ending at Kathmandu for 12 days offers most of the great things this trek has to offer to the trekkers. If you have enough time and want to explore more of Manaslu Reason you should definitely need to consider NNTR Tusm Valley and Manaslu Trekking for 21 days, we will be more than happy to know your preference and or the style of traveling. Just let us know how we can help you to customize and make this trek wonderful.

They have very simple and ordinary teahouses with limited services. Most of the teahouses have shared toilets and washing facilities. you have to make sure to bring a good quality sleeping bag with you.

There is nothing like falling asleep after a long day on the trails to a panoramic display of mountains outside your bedroom window. On the inside, the accommodation is simple, yet clean, cozy, and functional. The rooms usually include single-sized beds with comfortable sheets and pillows. All the Accommodation for your trek and tour is twin sharing basis.

Best Time for Manaslu Circuit Trek
