Newly opened in 1992 to trekking by HMG Nepal, this area has still its own natural virgin beauty that every trekkers can have the maximum satisfaction of nature’s paradise. This fascinating trek is constantly rewarded with biological diversity, unsurpassed beauty of brilliant mountain vistas of the Ganesh, Manaslu Himal (8118m) and insights into the cultures of a cross- section of ethnic Nepalese tribes and people of Gurung, Magar, Tamang and Bhotes (Tibetan) who inhibit the region whose way of life unchanged for decades and maybe, even centuries. Beginning in Gorkha, home of the celebrated Gorkha soldiers, visit the ancient place of King Prithivi Narayan Shah. Soon after civilization fades and we pass through ancient villages, observing the simple agriculture habits of its people.

Then we ascend the Gandaki River valley, fed by innumerable rivers and waterfalls, offering the chance of a plunge into some bathing pools. From here, the strenuous section begins and yaks begin to outnumber people in the rocky landscape. In Samagoan (3450m) we visit the glacial green lake of Birendra, before crossing into mystic Samdo, a mere 15 Km from the Tibetan border. Here Tibetan monks inhabit scared monasteries and combined with the views of Tibetan plateau against stark white Himalayas makes this a truly spiritual place. Continuing, more monasteries await in Larkya La (pass). This 5213m snow-covered pass demands the utmost respect. Snow-covered peaks over 6500m tower above as we cross. The decent, once off the snow lakes take us through alpine then tropical areas, busting with ferns, bamboo, pine trees, waterfalls and aqua-blue green lakes laced with cotton-white beaches. Finally, Manaslu will disappear as we descend to Beshishar (832m.) This 3-week excursion will leave you with a sense of peace and respect for the people of Nepal and its ecological wonders.

Nepal Tourism Business
