Best experience ever manaslu trek

10th November, 2022

I would like to thank my guide surya and company mountain eco trek.
Ram was very responsive and able to answer any questions I had before coming to Nepal. He made it very easy for me to book the trek.
We booked a trip to the Manaslu circuit, we were very happy to get a better service than we expected. Our guide Surya Tamang was excellent. He was very knowledgeable about the mountains and the local area, and his advice on altitude sickness was very helpful. All our porters were very helpful, and Surya gave us a lot of information about the trek and the mountains during the trek.
He took very good care of us we checked our oxygen level every evening. He monitored our food daily so none of us got sick during the trip, he changed the itinerary according to our needs, which was perfect! He made our trip very easy. I would like to say that if anyone wants to visit Nepal, they should choose Mountain Eco Trek.
Finally, many thanks to guide Surya and Ram
Many regards

 Manaslu Circuit Short Trek Overviews:

Short Manaslu Circuit Trek 13 days, the total trip in Nepal from the main arrival to final departures. But the trekking duration is 10 nights and 11 days with exciting drives both ways.

A perfect and ideal adventure for the strong and athletic person, those who can cover a longer distance in good time. Where altitude on Manaslu Circuit gains at a gradual slow pace, which makes the walk more interesting. The total distance to cover is about 126 km. or 80 miles in 9 or 10 days, quite a challenge. 

Short Manaslu Circuit Trek 13 days, truly for adventurous and expert walkers as well for strong athletic people. For those who have limited time in Nepal, and yet the urge to fulfill the tough walks in the shortest time.

The high country of Manaslu was at one time a forbidden region for outside visitors, which was opened in 1992 onwards. The above region of Manaslu although open to foreign travelers, remains one of the restricted areas of Nepal.

Trekkers need to obtain special trekking permits; including MCA and ACAP entry fees. (Manaslu Conservation Area and Annapurna Conservation Area Project). The high Larke-La Pass marks the boundary between the Manaslu / Gorkha and Manang areas, which falls within the Annapurna region.
Manaslu, the name comes from an ancient Sanskrit word that means ‘Mind or Soul of the God’ similarly, the locals call as Kutang. Which is of Tibetan origin language translates as a promising land for yielding high-altitude crops and raising livestock.

The country is blessed with natural beauty as a flourishing land, Manaslu region is also an important route to Tibet. Where the Old Trans Himalaya Salt Trade of Nepal and Tibet passes through the high Manaslu valley.

Mt. Manaslu at 8,163 m / 26, 781 feet, is listed world’s 8th highest peak. 
The first ascent was by a Japanese Expedition in 1956 with the support of Nepali mountaineering guides. From then on it was closed, and opened again for climbers and mountaineers; to explore and witness its great beautiful natural treasures. 

Mt. Manaslu is located north of Gorkha district, east of Annapurna and Lamjung Himal, and west of Massif Ganesh Himal. At present Manaslu Circuit is gaining more trekkers and mountaineers due to its amazing scenery and local impressive cultures.

The trek begins from the low warm farmland of Machha-Khola, then heads higher towards cooler hills to Jagat village. The entry point to Upper Manaslu and the Restricted Area of Nepal, from Jagat onwards into the high cooler country.

Spring season begins from March to May, most days are fine and clear with longer sunlight hours. However, late afternoon can get overcast chances of light rains sometimes. Cold morning and night time around higher elevations, this is the time when wildflowers are in seasonal bloom.

Cold morning and late afternoon till night time, extra cold from a wind-chill factor can expect snowfall sometimes.
