Nepal: Trekking » Restricted Area » A venture into Manaslu
A venture into Manaslu
Opened in 1992, A trek to the base of Mt. Manaslu offers a combination of rich cultural heritage, unsurpassed beauty and a great diversity of flora/fauna. Beginning our trek at Gorkha, home of the celebrated Gorkha soldiers, we visit the ancient palace of King Prithivi Narayan Shah before commencing our trek....soon all traces of modern civilisation fade as we travel through villages where the harmonious agricultural life has remained unchanged for hundreds of years.
The trek begins to get more serious, with the start of the ascent of the Gandaki River Valley, fed by innumerable rivers and waterfalls, where trekkers often enjoy a swim in refreshing river pools.
In Samagoan (3450 m.), we visit the glacial green lake of Birendra, before crossing into mystic Sado, just 15 km. from the Tibetan border. Here Tibetan monks inhabit sacred monasteries. More monasteries await in Larkya Bazzar, along with this trek's biggest challenge-- crossing the Larkya la 5135m between snow covered peaks which reach over 6500 m.
From the top of the pass we descend through alpine forests alive with flowers, ferns, bamboo, pine, waterfalls and aqua-blue green lakes which are laced with cotton-white beaches.
This 3 week excursion should leave you somewhat fitter with a sense of peace and respect both the people of region and the majesty of the Nepal Himalaya.
