Mount Manaslu is located East of the
Annapurna range. Recently opened to tourists, Manaslus
unsurpassed beauty and rich blend of Tibetan and
Nepalese culture offer a true adventure for visitors to
Nepal. Here you will find the mountains and valleys
covered with diverse and pristine eco-systems. Fantastic
mountain views, rich culture, and genuine adventure
tantalize trekkers as they climb to the base of
MountManasalu. You will soon understand what inspired
Eric Valli to create his world famous documentary,
"Honey Hunter of Nepal.
The inhabitants of the upper Buri Gandaki region are
known as the Nuri; their language and dress are quite
similar to the neighbouring Tibetans. These local
Himalayan people still earn their living through trade
with Tibet. The mountain views from Nupri are
sensational and crossing the Larke La pass is one of the
most beautiful and dramatic of the Himalayas.
Similar to many other trekking routes in Nepal, this
trek has many routes to choose from. One option passes
through Dudh Pokhari, a milky lake that is a common
pilgrimage destination for Hindus and Buddhists alike.
Another route takes you up to Manaslu Base Camp. While
the most popular option is to trek over the Larke La
pass to arrive in the Marsyandi valley in the Annapurna
region. |
