Explore the beautiful Manaslu Region of Nepal on this 18-day trekking trip! The remoteness and secluded nature of the area make this trek a great choice for those looking to find some solitude or be immersed in nature and offer something different from the busier Annapurna Region.
The trip begins with sightseeing of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites in Kathmandu and takes adventurers to trek in the beautiful Manaslu region. While on the trip, we get to marvel at the magnificent views of Mount Manaslu (8163m), the eighth tallest mountain in the world, coupled with a chance to witness the rich local heritage and biological diversity of the region. The highest point in this trek is the ‘Larkya La Pass’ which is widely believed to be one of the most dramatic passes crossing the Himalayas.
Like all our carefully-planned itineraries, this trek also ensures adequate time for proper acclimatization. Much of the trek involves walking on mountain trails and is within the capabilities of people with good cardiovascular fitness. Still, it is important to note that trekking at altitudes above 3000m/10,000ft is more demanding on the body than walking at low elevations.
Touring inside the Kathmandu Valley is a cultural experience in itself with visits to many religious temples, ancient palaces, Buddhist stupas & monasteries. The city of Kathmandu is also often called the city of temples and with many UNESCO World Heritage Sites located at a closer distances; sightseeing around Kathmandu is a stirring experience.
Basically, three queen cities make up Kathmandu i.e. Patan, Bhaktapur & Kathmandu. The tour visits all of these medieval cities and also extends to the outskirts of Kathmandu like Dhulikhel- a popular Himalayan viewpoint, Namobuddha- Buddhist pilgrim site, Dakshinkali Temple, Kirtipur city and many other cultural and historical landmarks.
This cultural tour of the Kathmandu Valley gives you the full insight of the culture and traditions of the rich Nepalese history and a gripping tour of one of the most vibrant cities of Nepal.
Please refer to the itinerary section for day-by-day activities.

The remote and rugged Tsum Valley Trek was not opened to global trekkers until 2008, meaning the trails are comparatively less travelled and more adventurous than many other treks in Nepal.
On this trek, trekkers will be able to explore the remote and beautiful surroundings of Ganesh Himal, Bouddha Himal and Sringi Himal mountain ranges. The trek starts and concludes at Arughat, 7-8 hours drive from Kathmandu. The initial days of the trek are all about hiking to Budhi Gandaki Valley on remote trails that pass through lush forests, terraced fields and beautiful villages. The trekkers need to leave the main trail of Manaslu Circuit trek to head towards Tsum valley. The inner feeling of peace and tranquility that you get in Tsum valley trek is indescribable.
Apart from the exotic Tsum Valley north of Mt. Manaslu, the trek offers and exciting journey along the lower Budhi Gandaki regions of Liding, Machhakhola, Jagat and Philim. Ancient gombas such as Rachen Gompa, Mu Gompa and Dephyudonma Gompa are other important highlights of this trek. Lastly, the warm hospitality of Tsumba people, the indigenous ethnic community of the valley, offers a homely environment to trekkers even in such remoteness.
Tsum Valley trek is an ideal package for the travelers who love solitude and a journey far away from crowds and hustle bustle.
