An adventurous trip across the Manaslu Conservation Area and the foothills of the Manaslu range is known as the Manaslu Base Camp Trek. The Manaslu region is an ancient valley that has been well-known for centuries and is found in the district of Gorkha’s northern part. Traveling through this area, which is brimming with breathtaking scenery and adventure, also gives you the chance to experience the Nubri and Tibetan communities’ cultures and traditions. The walk is worthwhile because it offers breathtaking vistas of the Mansiri Himalayas as well as glimpses of glaciers, waterfalls, and raging rivers.
Your 16-day journey to Manaslu Base Camp Trek starts when you land in Kathmandu. The following day, you tour Kathmandu, a stunning city with a diverse culture. Some of the World Heritage Sites that you will see are Boudhanath, Pashupatinath, Swayambhunath, and the Kathmandu Durbar Square. As you travel from Kathmandu to Soti Khola in the Rasuwa District, the Manaslu experience begins. You ascend a ridgeline to Maccha Khola and then reach Jagat while trekking through a sal and rhododendron forest. After leaving Jagat, you are greeted by a stunning view of the mountains, which leads you to settlements with Tibetan cultural influences. After passing through Deng and Namrung, you will arrive in Samagaon. After staying at Samagaon for a day, you will hike to Manaslu Base Camp. You reach the Manaslu Base Camp by following the trail through a forest, climbing steeply up a slope and then onto a moraine. From here, you can see Manaslu (8163m) up close. After a little interval, you return to Samagaon and go to Machha Khola, passing Namrung, Deng, and Jagat en route. You will walk from Machha Khola to Arughat, where the expedition comes to a finish. The optimum times to go through this area are from September to December and from February to May.

The trail then emerges from a gorge in a twisting direction, climbing steeply before dropping into Shringi Khola Valley. You proceed through a woodland on a steep incline after crossing a suspension bridge. After climbing a difficult hill, you reach Namrung after passing by a large cave and gorge.
In order to go to the village of Sho after leaving Namrung, the trail travels through the Barcham town and crosses Himan Khola. The route then turns downward toward Damonan Khola. Visit Ribung Gompa along the way to take in the scenery of the Manaslu Massif, Naike Peak (6211m), and Larkya Peak (6249m). When you get at Samagaon, you catch sight of Sama Gompa, which is softly perched on a moraine, along with views of pastures, fields, and distant mountains.
You have today to relax and stroll through Samagaon’s settlement. You take a short break before climbing sharply up a slope and onto a moraine. You stroll while taking in the breathtaking view of the glacier and Birendra Lake, which is encircled by mountains on all sides. You eventually arrive at Manaslu Base Camp by moving on. The vista of Manaslu (8163m), Dhaulagiri (8167m), and Birendra Lake is breathtaking from the camp. Following your adventure, you return to Samagaon.
You turn around and return to the Namrung village. Along the trip, you’ll pass through the towns of Sho and Lho. Along the trail, there are a few other Tibetan settlements. As you travel east, you pass a lot of monasteries and get to see Himalchuli (7863m). You reach Namrung after crossing several suspended bridges and moving through a stunning forest.
You travel to Deng village after leaving Namrung village. Retracing your steps, you descend through fir and rhododendron woodlands. As you see Shringi Himal, you pass through Prok hamlet, gompas, and gorges (7161m). You reach Deng after trekking along the twisting trail and through suspension bridges.
You go back the way you came after breakfast and descend to Jagat. After crossing the Deng Khola, you will first proceed through a bamboo forest. As you continue, you will pass the prayer wheels that adorn the Mani walls and cross the Philim, Sirdibas, and Salleri. You reach Jagat by continuing down the path while taking in the scenery of the highlands.
After leaving Jagat village, you travel to Machha Khola by means of suspended bridges and broad stone staircases. You reach Machha Khola by descending the ridgeline and again crossing the Tatopani hot springs. You will be accompanied by the Marsayangdi River, which rushes south and past Gurung and Magar villages.
You start your final day of the hike and travel to Arughat after a leisurely breakfast. Gorkha District’s rural municipality of Arughat. Even though the distance is considerable, the path is largely level as you get closer to the town of Arughat. After this arduous day of walking, which serves as the trek’s final day, you can rest.
A bus will arrive after breakfast to transport you back to Kathmandu, the nation’s capital. While driving, you can unwind and take in the scenery, the tranquil sound of the river, and the passing towns and villages. When you get to Kathmandu, the tour comes to a close, and you immediately check into your hotel. You can wander around Thamel in the evening and browse for trinkets if you wish.
You will be taken to the airport at your scheduled time for your scheduled flight home. We will drive you to Tribhuvan International Airport and head out early to avoid traffic. We bid you goodbye from the land of the Himalayas where you are always welcome for another visit.

When you are up in the mountains in Nepal, we would suggest you to be ready for anything. Weather forecasts for Lukla are never correct and different sources will give you different information. If it is a really bad day in terms of weather, the airlines will themselves cancel the flight and you might have to wait till the weather clears. Yes, flying in high altitude is never easy, even on a clear sunny day, the plane might face turbulence because of the wind blowing from the mountains. But overall the flight to Lukla is very exciting and it’s an experience that you will never forget.
