Manaslu base camp trekking would engage any individual who is searching for an exciting trek in a remote locale of the Nepal Himalaya. Mt. Manaslu 8153m (26748 ft) is the eight most elevated peaks on the planet. The name “MANASLU” signifies “The spirit – Mountain” in the native language, alluding to the strong god, who stayed inside and trekked to Manaslu base camp. It’s a standout trek in Nepal.
The trail goes through a topographically dramatic and socially captivating territory with the landscape like the exemplary Annapurna Circuit. The trek presents diverse flora and fauna and for the most part, a wide cultural range which comprises powerful impacts from Tibet blending with typical Nepalese traditions and ethnicity. Alongside, the different rising and plunging trails and the stay at the higher elevations make the territory as one of the best trekking locations in Nepal.
Manaslu base camp trek offers complete perspectives of mountains; a mix of rich cultural legacy, veritable experience, exceptional magnificence, natural diversity, and in addition phenomenal farmland panorama.
Our Manaslu Base Camp Trek is a long trekking trip that lasts 16 days, so it is advised to be in a great shape with the right fitness level. We usually prefer trekking at this route from March to late May in the spring season and early September to late November in autumn time as the best seasons for the trek.
