Trekking in Manaslu |
Considered one of the most
challenging treks in Nepal, the Manaslu Circuit will
reward the adventurous with an unparalleled alpine
experience. Opened in 1992, this area offers a
combination of rich culture heritage, unsurpassed
beauty, and biological diversity.
We ascend the Gandaki River valley, which is fed by
innumerable rivers and waterfalls, offering the chance
of a plunge into some bathing pools. From here, the
strenuous section begins and yaks begin to outnumber
people in the rocky landscape. In Samagoan (3450m) we
visit the glacial green lake of Birendra, before
crossing into mystic Samdo, a mere 15km from the Tibetan
border. Here Tibetan monks inhabit sacred monasteries
and combined with the views of the Tibetan plateau
against stark white Himalayas this is a truly spiritual
place. The biggest challenge then awaits - crossing the
snow bound Larkya La pass (5213m). Snow-covered peaks
over 6500m towers above as we cross. The descent, once
off the snow, takes us through alpine then tropical
areas, bursting with ferns, bamboo, pine trees,
waterfalls and aqua-blue green lakes laced with
cotton-white beaches. Finally, Manaslu will disappear as
we descend to Beshishar (832m.) This 3week excursion
will leave you with a sense of peace and respect for the
people of Nepal and its ecological wonders.
