About Trek

Over view 

The Manaslu Circuit Trek, crossing Larkya La pass (16,752 ft. or 5106 m.) by stunning views of the Manaslu, Ganesh Himal and Annapurna ranges to join legendary Annapurna region, is one of Nepal's most spectacular and culturally diverse treks. Its dramatic Himalayan vistas, challenging terrain, mix of Gurung and Tibetan villages, Tibetan Buddhist gompas, birds, and wildlife make it one of Nepal's best camping treks.

Manaslu (8,156 meter) is the world’s eight highest Peak. This aera is situated close to the Annapurna massif. The route was only opened to the trekkers in 1992 and is now acknowledged as one of the finest route. Heading north from the Gorkha, along the Burdi Gandaki River,. A step ascent to Larkya Pass(5,212 meter) is rewarded by stunning views of the Manaslu and Annapurna peaks. At Dharapani we join the Annapurna Circuit and follow the Marshyandi river south.
