Introduction
Far off from the hustle and bustle of cities, trek to "Mountain of the Spirit” - Manaslu Base Camp offers you an escape into the majestic Himalayas. Manaslu Base Camp Trek was officially opened for tourists in 1992 and very few amounts of tourists visited Manaslu base camp trek because it is one of the restricted trekking routes in the Manaslu Region, which is challenging and requires special trekking permits. This trek allows us to know about the rich culture, tradition, history, adventure, scenic beauty and rural civilization that represents the ancient Tibetan lifestyle. The beautiful Mountain ranges in this area with cultural diversities and natural scenery with high elevation romantic glacier lakes and varieties of flora and fauna make this trek must-do trek in Manaslu Region. The majestic views of view of Manaslu Himal (8153m), Shringi Himal (7187m), Ganesh Himal (7319m), and Himal Chuli (7893m) are the main highlights of this trek.

We commence our trek to Manaslu Base Camp at Arughat Bazaar and follow the trail beyond the Budhi Gandaki River, which is one of the most difficult routes with huge amounts of ups and downs as you trek up and down over ridges and onto shelves to bypass cliffs.
