Around Manaslu

1Manaslu.jpg (7425 bytes) Manaslu (8156m) is the world's seventh highest peak. This area, situated close to the Annapurna massif, was only opened for trekking in 1992 and is now acknowledged to be one of the finest trekking routes. Heading north from Gorkha, alongside the Burhi Gandaki river, the route turns then westwards into a high alpine valley with typical Tibetan villages and a number of fine monasteries. A steeper ascent to the Larkya La pass (5212 m) is rewarded by stunning views of the Manaslu and Annapurna peaks. At Dharapani, we join the Annapurna circuit and follow the Marsyangdi river south. As beautiful as the famous "Annapurna circuit", this trek leads through unspoiled regions where we will meet few trekking groups.
