Manaslu Circuit Trek is categorized as one of the adventure treks in Nepal and combines the high of the Himalayas and its natural beauty with rich cultural heritage and biological diversity. Manaslu, located east of the Annapurna range which is the eight highest peaks in the world and was opened to foreigners since 1992.
Manaslu Circuit Trek is a laborious trek that demands experience along with good physical well being. The Manaslu trek ascends through Budi Gandaki River offering numerous rivers and waterfalls to Larkya La Pass (5213 m), the highest point in the Manaslu Circuit Trek, providing striking views of Himalchuli, Manaslu (8156 m), Ganesh Himal and other various mountains. En route, diverse landscape and variety in flora and fauna amazes anyone. The laborious part of trekking along Manaslu circuit starts from Samagoan (3450 m) where you could get lucky to see the freezing green lake of Birendra. However, the biggest challenge awaits - crossing the snow-clad Larkye La pass (5213m), which is 8 km from the Tibet border, and offers classic views of Himlung Himal (7,126 m), Cheo Himal, Gyaji Kang, Kang guru (6,981m) and Annapurna II (7,937m). From Larkya La (Larkya Pass), we take a steep descent along a snow-covered trail down to Tanbuche. Then we follow a narrow trail to the Dudh Khola (Milk River) banks passing through magnificent forests of rhododendron, Pine, and Juniper. A further descent transforms the alpine vegetation to subtropical greenness. Then the walk through the Marshyangdi River to Besishahar marks the end of the Trek.
14 Day Manaslu Circuit Trek is getting more and more popular as a new trekking destination but it still sees fewer trekkers compared to the established trekking routes in the Annapurna region. The Manaslu Circuit Trek is a stunning trek with spectacular views of Mount Manaslu (8163 m) and the Ganesh Himal Range, among others. Along the trail to Manaslu Trek, you will cross an interesting mix of authentic Hindu and Tibetan-style Buddhist villages. The trail follows the spectacular Budhi Gandaki River all the way from Arughat to its source just below the Larkya Pass (5125 m). As you start low, at around 700 m, the landscapes are incredibly varied ranging from the green countryside and lush forests to spectacular high altitude landscapes skirting huge glaciers.
Crossing Larke Pass (5125 m) can be tough when there is snow. However, the stunning landscape with the mighty Himalayas towering straight above you and the spectacular glaciers make it more than worth the effort. The Larke Pass pass links the Budhi Gandaki with the Marsyangdi valley. The descent passes through beautiful alpine meadows at Bhimtang before joining the main Annapurna Circuit route heading to the trailhead at Besisahar. The Manaslu Circuit Trek is easily accessible from Kathmandu. It originally started in the town of Arughat or Sotikhola or Machhi Khola; however, with roads being built many trekkers start at either Barpak or Machhi Khola a bit further up the trail.
The Manaslu Circuit Trek described here starts in Soti Khola and ends in Dharapani. Its also possible to finish the walk in Besisahar which is also the starting point for the Annapurna circuit Trek. The itinerary below is one of the many possibilities. The trek can be made longer or shorter depending on the length of your walking days and starting point. There are basic guesthouses all along the trail so you can choose if you want to camp or stay at the teahouses. You can combine the Manaslu Circuit Trek with the Tsum Valley, a beautiful, secluded valley where century-old Tibetan traditions prevail.

Manaslu circuit trek has recently been promoted to a tea house trekking trail. Most of the tea houses are run by local people themselves. Nowadays there are sufficient of tea houses, almost 3 to 4 tea houses in each town.
All the tea houses have a central dining hall that has a heating system and keeps the overall hotel warm. Although the rooms are small but clean with a mattress, small blanket, pillow, and bed cover. Green Valley Nepal Treks recommend bringing a warm sleeping bag because during the peak season you wont get additional blankets. Normally we provide rooms on twin sharing bases (only in special requests we can provide single rooms).
During Manaslu Circuit Trek, you can get a large variety of food items like rice, lintel, vegetable, Momo, and noodles. Also, you could get western food as well like pizza, and spaghetti but you will get on the local test.
Toast Items, Eggs items, Pan Cakes, Muesli, Gurung Bread or Tibetan Bread
Soups items. Pizza, Pasta, Dumplings (fry/steam), Spaghetti, Rice, Noodles, Potato items, and Vegetables.
From March to May, and from mid-September to mid-December, is the best time to do a Manaslu Circuit Trek in Nepal.
Although June to mid-September is also doable, we must prepare the best equipment for rain. And we should be aware that there is the possibility of this season.
Along the Manaslu Trekking trails, there are spring and tap water where you could refill water bottle easily but it is not recommended to drink without purification. So Green Valley Nepal Treks provide water purification tablets to all our clients before starting the trip from Kathmandu. You must have water bottles yourself. We recommend you bring two water bottles (minimum of one litter). Mineral water is also available to be purchased in tea houses. But we suggest to all our clients and local people not to use plastic bottles due to environmental concerns.
The trail is less crowded and more peaceful:
Recently, the Manaslu Circuit trek has been promoted as a teahouse trek in Nepal. The Manaslu Circuit trek is less crowded and peaceful compared with other popular treks in the Everest and Annapurna region. If you are a tranquil seeker, Green Valley Nepal Treks recommends putting Manaslu Circuit Trek on your next bucket list.
The Larkya La pass, at 5125 m, is another reason to choose Manaslu Circuit Trek. Larkya La Pass is one of the adventurous passes in Nepal, situated on the Manaslu Circuit Trek. From the Larkya La Pass, one could observe a 360-degree view of the western part of Nepals Himalayas.
Trekking through the off-the-beaten path of the Manaslu region blesses the trekkers with natural beauty and topography. The lifestyle, natural form, culture, and religions are major reasons to visit the Manaslu region. You could see everything untouched by modernism. Being part of a remote part of Nepal, the houses are basic and there are no proper driving roads for transportation. We recommend the Manaslu circuit trek for trekkers who are looking to explore a remote part of Nepal and experience a pure lifestyle.

You may get a general sense of what to pack for the hike from the material that follows. It is crucial that you remember the necessities since doing so will affect your treks comfort and safety. Its equally crucial that you go on the hike without carrying too much gear. However, here is our recommendation list.
In terms of difficulty, Manaslu Circuit is fairly challenging. The path travels via scenic Larkya Pass which is 5106 meters above sea level. The Manaslu hiking trails are also tough and need tremendous work both physically and emotionally to overcome the stress and weariness. When compared to Annapurna and Everest, the Manaslu Circuit trip is hard in difficulty level due to the absence of appropriate paved or created trails and guided routes. Having previous trekking experience or hiking habits for this hike might be advantageous. Prior physical preparation will support the mountaineer a lot to comfortably accomplish the Manaslu Circuit Trek as it is one of the tough treks in Nepal.
Getting used to the altitude changes in the Manaslu Region may be very challenging for first-time hikers. As a result, it is always a better idea to train physically and psychologically for any kind of mountain hiking before you leave on your adventure. You can walk or climb any nearby hills from your present area for around two to three weeks before your trip to Nepal. The gym may also help you get fitter physically, especially your heart. You can manage your breathing by exercising physically and staying in shape by doing something like swimming or cycling. It is crucial to mentally prepare before starting any hike. If you want to accomplish the Manaslu Circuit successfully, you must be psychologically prepared.
Without adequate travel insurance, a relaxing journey is impossible. The expense of emergency care and evacuation in the case of illness or injury is rather alarming. As a result, we heartily advise purchasing travel insurance for everyone who books a trek with Green Valley Nepal Trek. We advise you to exercise caution when selecting coverage because some insurers have unique exclusions for adventurous travel. Make sure your insurer is aware of the Green Valley Nepal schedule you intend to follow and is willing to cover all of the activities being engaged in during the trip before purchasing insurance. You must have emergency helicopter rescue and medical expenses coverage with your insurance if you want to go hiking or mountain climbing in the Himalayas. Considering that all payments for deposits are non-refundable, double-check your insurance coverage to ensure that it covers trip cancellation.
Customers protection, happiness, and safety are guaranteed by Green Valley Nepal Trek. Keeping you safe is our top priority. We always have the necessary clothing, gear, and first aid supplies on hand so that we are ready for anything. Our leaders and guides have completed thorough first-aid training. Your trip leader has the authority to decide whether to continue or to quickly descend if a trekker gets altitude sickness. In the case of an emergency, a rescue helicopter will be sent to fly you back from a great height. To ensure everyones safety, we trek together as well.

Yes. In Manaslu, you have to hike with a guide. Because it is a requirement of the government that each trip in the Manaslu region have a minimum of two trekkers and a guide. Also designated as a restricted territory, this path travels through the region between Jagat and Bimthang.
The ideal time frame for this journey is 15 days, starting and ending in Kathmandu. The journey may be completed in 10 or 12 days, but doing so would mean rushing through it and possibly missing out on some of the experience. Not to mention that it will be tougher and more physically exhausting. If you have the time, think about taking an excursion to the magnificent, freshly inaugurated Tsum Valley.
In addition to the Annapurna Conservation Area Permit (ACAP), you also need the Manaslu Special Permit and the Manaslu Conservation Area Permit (MCAP). For your piece of mind, Green Valley Nepal Trek will assist you with all the essential documentation.
There isnt an age restriction for the Manaslu Trek, but you do need to be in decent physical form and have an optimistic perspective. We also advise you to contact your doctor before the vacation in order to get the appropriate approval, guidance, and prescriptions for traveling at extremely high altitudes.
To carry 20 kg of baggage for two hikers, Green Valley Nepal will employ one porter (maximum 10 kg for each trekker). Dont overwhelm your porters, since they not only carry your gear but also help you achieve new heights in spirit. In addition, their efforts to carry you to your goal may be motivated by your love, devotion, and generosity. So please be mindful of this.
In Nepal, leaving tips for porters and trek guides is encouraged as an expression of gratitude. Your trek guide and porter are excellent supporters who helped you experience something that just a select few people can. In addition to guiding you, carrying your supplies, and being aware of your safety, they want you to achieve joyfully more than anybody, much like family. Your tips so express you are thankful to them.
Not all locations on the Manaslu Circuit trip offer ATM services. Therefore, be sure to have adequate cash with you.
It is mandatory to get travel insurance, which must include medical and emergency repatriation coverage, as well as costs for helicopter rescue and evacuation at the highest elevations.
Although plastic bottles are not allowed in the Manaslu region, bottled water is widely available there at a reasonable price. As a result, you must have a water bottle that you can fill with filtered or heated water.
