Craving a trek that blends Himalayan majesty with authentic cultural encounters? The Manaslu Circuit Trek offers a 15-day adventure circling the breathtaking Manaslu Peak and traversing the renowned Larkya La Pass. Starting from the bustling town of Arughat, travelers wind through lush bamboo forests and traditional Gurung villages nestled in the dramatic Buri Gandaki gorge. As you ascend, the landscape transforms, leading into the Nupri region, a community shaped by Tibetan heritage. Here, colorful prayer flags, intricately carved mani walls, and centuries-old monasteries provide an immersive introduction to Tibetan Buddhist culture.
The trek continues through picturesque settlements like Lho and Samdo, offering rare opportunities to interact with locals and gain insight into their day-to-day lives. Approaching the Larkya La Pass, trekkers are challenged by a full day of high-altitude hiking. While demanding, the pass is accessible to those with good fitness—even if you’ve never tackled mountaineering before. The reward? Panoramic vistas of some of the Himalayas' most striking peaks: Himal Chuli, Cheo Himal, Himlung Himal, and, of course, Manaslu itself.
This tour is ideal for adventurous souls and seasoned hikers seeking both natural grandeur and meaningful cultural connections. The unique selling point of the Manaslu Circuit Trek is its harmonious blend of off-the-beaten-path Himalayan exploration and deep cultural immersion—an experience less crowded than the Everest or Annapurna circuits, yet equally rich in scenery and local charm. Embark on this unforgettable trekking journey for a truly authentic slice of Nepalese and Tibetan life amid awe-inspiring mountain landscapes.

Such a good and hardworking team they had. Completely satisfied with their services!
We spent a wonderful 17 days trek in Manaslu Larkey Pass with Asian Journey in October 2018. This our 3rd time in Nepal and did already EBC and ABC, this trails are very crowded. We heard that Manaslu Circuit Trek much quieter and more remote than Annapurna & Everest. It was an excellent mix of challenging hike, local communities and beautiful landscape. We enjoyed the trek very much.
The Manaslu trek is absolutely a great choice for the adventure lovers. I and My friend Ryan booked this trip with Asian Journey. The views from Larkey la pass is amazing.
