Manaslu Trek
 This area with rich
in natural and cultural heritage was opened for the trekkers very recently. The trek
originates from Gorkha. "Gorkha" the ancient kingdom of Shah Dynasty, the home
country of great Gurkha Army has a mixed culture of Buddhist and Hindus. This trek leads
very close to Tibetan border and considered to be the most difficult trek because of
narrow/steep trails and high altitude pass (5213m). In spite of rugged and steep trails
and high altitude sickness problems this trek can be regarded the perfect alternate to the
highly crowded treks like in Annapurna and Everest region. Circling the entire Manaslu
range (8100m) this trek offers a great opportunity to explore the cultural diversity in
central Nepal.
