Trip Highlights
Manaslu Circuit Trekking is one the most beautiful trekking in northwestern Nepal. Team Himalaya’s Manaslu Circuit Trekking will take you to the rarely trekked region that combines mesmerizing mountain views, rich sub-tropical vegetation, mountain deserts, ancient villages and crossing the enthralling Larke Pass at height of 5,213m to reach the foothills of Mt. Manaslu, the 8th tallest peak in the world at an elevation of 8,163m. The Larke Pass, which is the highest elevation point of the trek, is known to offer the most dramatic pass crossing experience in Himalayas.Manaslu circuit Trekking has been opened to trekkers only in 1992, the Manaslu region stands in stark contrast to popular trekking destinations like the Everest and Annapurna region. To this day, the region sees very fewer visitors, thus offering the daring trekkers with less beaten, remote and virgin trails that wait to be explored. A good amount of the trek involves hiking on a mountain trail and thus is under the capacity of any individual with sound health. However, the trekkers need to thoroughly understand the challenges of trekking at elevations above 3000m require is albeit challenging. However, Manaslu circuit trekking route is an ideal choice for individuals who want to explore the wilderness and remoteness of the Himalayas, far from the crowded trekking routes.
The 18-day-long Manaslu circuit trek begins with a 7-hours drive from Kathmandu to Arughat, Gorkha. We will gradually trek northwards through hilly villages like Soti Khola, Machha Khol, and Jagat to reach famous sub-alpine villages of Ghap and Lho. The path follows the ancient salt trading route to Tibet along the banks of Budi Gandaki River. After trekking for few more days through Samagaon, Dharamshala, and Samdo, we will cross the Larke Pass. On our return journey, we will trek down through Annapurna Circuit Trekking Route to reach Besi Shahar in Lamjung district, from where we will drive back to Kathmandu.
During the Manaslu circuit trekking, we will be rewarded with the stunning views of the Mt. Manaslu. Satellite peaks in the Nepal-Tibet border above the elevation of 6,500m and 7,000m will be visible from a very near distance. The views of these mountains are even more commendable from the top of the Larkya-la Pass. Another highlight of the trek is travelling through the Manaslu Conservation Area which was established with the motive of conserving the region in its entire wilderness. We might also have sightings of rare Himalayan animal species like Himalayan Thar, musk deer, snow leopard and red panda. While trekking, we will be able to explore and experience the lifestyle and culture of the local Gurung people. Since the region shares close proximity with Tibet, the people here still follow the very rare Tibetan Buddhism. It will be an interesting revelation to witness how these settlements have sustained and flourished in such trying conditions.

Everyday was stunning new scenery, amazing people and fascinating villages. It was as we expected. Thank you so much Raj and Ramesh! We're forever grateful for such an incredible adventure.
Manaslu Circuit Trekking and crossing over Larke-La Pass at 5,106 m was so great, as well very tiring. The downhill was quite long to Bhimthang, but we made it thanks to the support of best guide from Team Himalaya. Overall the trek was more than an adventure but enjoyable and made my time in Nepal worth a visit.
I would definitely recommend to my friends and family to experience Manaslu Circuit Trekking joining with the best local company. That is Team Himalaya, the guide and staff was so helpful and always busy take care of us.
The food, accommodation and transportation were all excellent and thanks to Team Himalaya for the wonderful Manaslu Circuit Trekking.
Oh what an adventure facing superb views of beautiful scenery of landscapes and towering snow-capped peaks. It was a splendid trekking throughout the trip, although quite tiring for some days. But the surrounding views made the trek worth the hard effort the exciting views. The starting point was quite warm, a great change of climate and vegetation on every day walks.
But the best was on reaching the high Manaslu Valley, with majestic views of Mt. Manaslu North Face. From Lho Gaon an interesting walk to Sama-Gaon, on rest day hike to Birendra Lake and Manaslu Base Camp. It was a memorable and tough walks but we did it with good support of our guide.
The hardest and most strenuous was climb on top Larke-La pass and the long undulating downhill to Bhimthang. Overall the Manaslu Circuit trek was wonderful, thanks to Team Himalaya and the guide.

Manaslu Circuit Trekking and crossing over Larke-La Pass at 5,106 m was so great, as well very tiring. The downhill was quite long to Bhimthang, but we made it thanks to the support of best guide from Team Himalaya. Overall the trek was more than an adventure but enjoyable and made my time in Nepal worth a visit.
I would definitely recommend to my friends and family to experience Manaslu Circuit Trekking joining with the best local company. That is Team Himalaya, the guide and staff was so helpful and always busy take care of us.
The food, accommodation and transportation were all excellent and thanks to Team Himalaya for the wonderful Manaslu Circuit Trekking.

Oh what an adventure facing superb views of beautiful scenery of landscapes and towering snow-capped peaks. It was a splendid trekking throughout the trip, although quite tiring for some days. But the surrounding views made the trek worth the hard effort the exciting views. The starting point was quite warm, a great change of climate and vegetation on every day walks.
But the best was on reaching the high Manaslu Valley, with majestic views of Mt. Manaslu North Face. From Lho Gaon an interesting walk to Sama-Gaon, on rest day hike to Birendra Lake and Manaslu Base Camp. It was a memorable and tough walks but we did it with good support of our guide.
The hardest and most strenuous was climb on top Larke-La pass and the long undulating downhill to Bhimthang. Overall the Manaslu Circuit trek was wonderful, thanks to Team Himalaya and the guide.
