Mansalu and Tzum Valley Round Trek

This route of trekking was forbidden to the tourists till 1991 when the Japanese Expedition team ascended the Mt. Manaslu (8,163m.), it became popular as “Japanese Mountain”. This trek begins from Gorkha, Trishuli Bazaar or Dhading from one of them.

The route: The trail is rough steep and often hangs on a bluff high above the river. Though the Larke La is not a difficult pass, the trek is harder. This area is still offers solitary but pure natural vegetation with beautiful flora and fauna. The trek is remote and no rescue facilities or opportunities to bail out if tired. This trek is culturally and geographically spectacular and fascinating to all the trekkers. The Tibetans of the upper Budhigandaki, the region known as Nupri (The western Mountain) are direct descendants of Tibetans immigrants. Their speech, dress and customs are exclusively Tibetan. There is still continuous the trade between Nupri and Tibet.
