Itinerary

Hidden behind the towering peaks of Dhaulagiri and Annapurna, Upper Mustang is a land of stark beauty and timeless culture. This restricted trekking region, requiring special permits, offers an adventure through treeless deserts, deep gorges, and the legendary Kali Gandaki valley.

Trekkers experience a landscape punctuated by barley fields, grazing sheep, and dramatic views of Nilgiri, Tukuche, and Mustang Himal. The tour also includes a unique biking segment from Besisahar to Yak Kharka and up to Chulu Far East, culminating in panoramic Himalayan views and a visit to the sacred Muktinath temple.

What sets this trip apart is the rare glimpse into Mustang’s ancient Buddhist heritage, virtually untouched by modern civilization. For those seeking an immersive tour package blending trekking, biking, and cultural discovery, Upper Mustang remains one of Nepal’s most rewarding and enchanting journeys.

Greatest trip of my life

Trekking through Upper Mustang was one of the best experiences of my life. The landscapes were the most breathtaking I’ve ever seen, and the cultural experience—monasteries, villages, and local traditions—was unforgettable. My guide, Rammesh, was absolutely amazing. He was knowledgeable, caring, and made the trek feel smooth, safe, and deeply meaningful. I can’t imagine a better guide.

Spectacular

What a great place to walk! High desert, in the rain shadow of the Himalayas, so can be done in the rainy season as well. Beautiful scenery.

Amazing trip to Lo Mantang

I finally managed to fulfill my boyhood dream and visited Nepal alone. But I also wanted to visit Mustang and I knew that I would need the help of someone local. and I am glad that this agency helped me with my trip. The proceedings were very fair and the support was, in one word, incredible. I want to at least thank UAI on this way for the beautiful experiences that I am taking away from Nepal.

Great trek despite the low season challenges

Great support from the team (Khum, Krisna) as well as our guide Meg and porter Kumar. Many guest houses were closed due to the low season. Meg found alternatives and secured our daily accommodation. Mind blowing, spectacular landscapes. This second trek in Nepal was at the level of our expectations. I highly recommend this tour.

Upper Mustang Adventures

Good day travellers, very happy with the organisation. Everything went very smoothly, even though we started changing the planning during the trip. All was accommodated with a smile. Having a guide that knows the region is an absolute must. We stayed a bit on our hunger for that, but judging from the other teams around us, it will be hard to find someone who really understands the local culture. Best to buy a map, read as much as you can before hand, so you can wave in the information given. Very good trip
