This circular trek takes you up through lush valleys full of seasonal flowers that receive the heaviest monsoon rains throughout the Himalayan range, north into spectacular high alpine landscapes full of woodlands and mountain streams.

The Manaslu Circuit Trek over the Larky La Pass is one of Nepal’s best-kept secrets.  Following remote trails which are little touched by the modern world and which see relatively few visitors throughout the year, it offers beautiful views of the Himalayan range, with the magnificent Manaslu.

On this trek, you go from the hustle and bustle of Kathmandu, a cosmopolitan city very much in the 21st century, but still with pockets dating back to ancient times, into the supreme majesty of Nepal’s high Himalayas.

This is a trek for those with a real sense of adventure, who are happy to embrace basic living conditions in order to experience rural, mountain people’s life in Nepal.

The literal translation of Tsum is vivid, and this area is indeed vivid – not only in its topography and mountains, but in its Tibetan culture, flora and fauna and is renouned for its large herds of Himalayan Thar and Blue Sheep.
