Manaslu Circuit Trek 18 Days Tour

Package Overview

The Manaslu Circuit trek is a challenging trek in a remote region of the Nepal Himalayas. The trek starts in Arughat after a 6-7 hour drive from Kathmandu. The trail starts out passing through bamboo forests and Gurung villages beside the Budi Gandaki River. The scenery is similar to the popular Annapurna Circuit, but without the crowds. The Manaslu Circuit is a trek that goes off the beaten track. After Lho village we enter the Nupri region inhabited by Tibetan immigrants where you will see colourful prayer flags, mani walls, chortens and monasteries along the way. Sama Gaun is a wide open area with great mountain views. The walk from Sama Gaun village to Manaslu Base Camp and back is a good acclimatisation day. After Samdo village, we stay one night at Dharamsala before approaching the Larkya La Pass. The climb to Larkya La pass is a challenging day which is suitable for a fit hill walker with no previous mountaineering experience. From Larkya La, we have views of Manaslu, Himal Chuli, Cheo Himal, Himlung Himal and many other surrounding Himalayas.

Terms & Conditions

TRAVEL INSURANCE

• Proof of travel insurance is mandatory before starting the trek. Standard policies often only cover medical evacuation to 4000m so make sure the policy you get covers up to 6000m. We usually suggest World Nomads which costs around $125. You only need to be covered on the policy for the days you will actually be trekking. 

• Nepal entry visa ($40 USD). Sleeping Bag Rental $12 and Down Jacket $12 if needed. All the meals are included on the trek but we only include breakfast while you are in Kathmandu. We suggest a tip for the guide and porter after the trek - Plan on a at least $80 (more will be appreciated). We don't include drinking water on the trek which you can buy a number of places for between $1 and $3 a bottle (it gets more expensive towards base camp). A better solution is to buy water tablets in Kathmandu for around $2 and treat the water (your guide can help you find the good places to fill your water bottle). The other things not included on the trek are like Wifi, charging batteries and hot showers. Wifi is available in some tea houses for $3 to $5 an hour. Hot Showers are also available in a few for around $4 and charging costs about $1.50 an hour. Unforeseen cost due to flight cancellation, weather conditions etc. You are responsible for extra hotel nights ($30/night) and meals in Kathmandu for any extra days in Nepal due to flight delays. 

• We generally don't charge solo travelers any extra fees. Solo travelers can expect their own hotel room in Kathmandu but will need to share a room with other group members during the trek. If availability allows we will arrange private rooms on the trek as well upon request. If you are a solo travelers and planning and not joining one of our group treks you will be charged an extra $10 a day for a porter.
