Situated very close to the border of Nepal is Mt. Manaslu, the 8th highest mountain in the world. Rising to an elevation of 8,163 meters, it is worshipped locally as Spirit Mountain. In its magnificent shadow to the north are villages of people who are originally from Tibet. Practising the ancient Tibetan Buddhist religion, these people are living the culture of Tibet as practised before the Chinese invasion of their homeland to the north.
This region features both incredible Himalayan beauty and wonderful Tibetan culture in an unspoilt setting. The stone villages have terraced farms separated by dense forests. There are amazing snow-capped peaks, wild rivers that rush over boulders on their way to India, colourful wildflowers and very friendly people who enjoy meeting visitors as they welcome you into their homes.
The Manaslu Conservation Area is a restricted area that was opened up to the public about 20 years ago. Only a limited number of visitors are allowed to enter each year to maintain the unique culture for generations to come. We are pleased to be able to make all of the necessary arrangements in order to explore this incredible area and preserve the unique Tibetan culture.
The Manaslu Around Trek is 19 days of amazing adventure. This is not a trek for the masses; instead, it is a unique trek for those who want to experience the wonderful Tibetan culture as it was over a century ago in Tibet, framed by incredible Himalayan scenery that is found nowhere else on the planet.
