Upper Mustang trek offers a spectacular trekking experience in the remote
trans-Himalayan mountain region of Nepal. The 17-day trip begins in Kathmandu
with tours of UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Then we drive to Pokhara and fly to
Jomsom the next day and begin trekking. Tourists were allowed to enter the
Upper Mustang region Upper Mustang which is also known as the Last Forbidden
Kingdom because it wasn’t until 1990. Ghorepani Poonhill Trek.
While trekking in the Upper Mustang region of Nepal, we can admire the
uniqueness of tree-less landscape, rocky trails, and views of Nilgiri,
Annapurna, Dhaulagiri, and the other Himalayas. Upper Mustang Trek is a
moderate trek suitable for passionate walkers who have the ability to walk at
least five hours a day with a light rucksack. On some days we might even need
to walk for long hours. We can enjoy authentic Nepalese food as well as the
more common international cuisine (Tibetan, Continental, Italian, Indian, etc.)
during our trek. Upper Mustang trekking in Nepal officially opened in 1992.
Limited numbers of trekkers are allowed each year. Thus to protect and conserve
the local Tibetan tradition and the fragile environment. Everest View Trek

Annapurna Base Camp Trek.
After landing at the
Tribhuwan International Airport. After breakfast,
we leave our hotel early morning for a drive with scenic views along the road
to Pokhara via Prithivi national highway. The drive could take roughly 6-7 hrs
to reach Pokhara. We also have the option for a flight from Kathmandu to Pokhara
for 35 minutes. You have choice to relax in Pokhara or have a sightseeing or
walk around beautiful Phewa Lake. Overnight in Pokhara.
A short morning flight to Jomsom, the district headquarters of Mustang,
through the world’s deepest Kali Gandaki Gorge with the glorious view of
Annapurna and Dhaulagiri is exceptional. Jomsom is where your actual trek of
foot begins. After checking out from the airport, you will start your 3 hours
trek. You will trek uphill alongside Kali Gandaki River to reach Kagbeni.
You will get our permits checked then begin our trek on a trail alongside
the Kali Gandaki River. Today you will pass by villages Tangbe and Chusang.
Made with mud and white painted narrow alleys, you will pass through apple
garden and colorful buckwheat field. You traverse several ridges to Tangbe
village. This village is a labyrinth of narrow alleys amongst white washed
houses, fields of buckwheat, barley, wheat and apple orchards.
Today’s walk is more into undulating trails with couple of steep climb and
descents. Despite 6 hour walk the tremendous canyons with its unusual colour
that opens out is extraordinary. In this bizarre the farming fields with rich
red buckwheat and brilliant green and the south view offering you a panorama of
Nilgiri, Annapurna, Tilicho Peak, and YakawaKang adds up to its magnificence.
We ascend to the Yamda La pass at 3,850m. On the way, we pass by a few
teahouses, chortens and beautiful villages. We trek through poplar forests and
barley fields and reach Nyi Pass at 4,010m. From here, we descend to Ghami
which is one of the biggest villages in the Lo region. The village is beautiful
with fields surrounding the entire village. Overnight in Ghami.
This day is the continuation of gaining high altitude through constant
changing up and down. We have one other high passes to conquer ahead of us call
Yamda La pass at 3,850m. We will pass by several villages which brings a tone
of Tibetian lifestyle. After the two high passes, this region gives more
Tibetian vibes, while below Syngbouche it is more of a Gurung and Thakali
culture influence from lower Mustang and Manang area (District next to Mustang)
Lo Manthang the capital city of Mustang contains about 150 houses and has
