MANASLU TREK

Pristine mountain views, rich culture and genuine adventure sum up the trek experience around the 8156m Manaslu. Opened in 1992, this area offers a combination of rich culture heritage, unsurpassed beauty and biological diversity. Beginning in Gorkha, manaslu.jpg (16053 bytes)home of the celebrated Gorkha soldiers, visit the ancient palace of King Prithivi Narayan Shah. Soon after civilisation fades and we pass though ancient villages, observing the simple agricultural habits of its people. Then we ascend the Gandaki River valley, fed by innumerable rivers and waterfalls, offering the chance of a plunge into some bathing pools. From here, the strenuous section begins and yaks begin to outnumber people in the rocky landscape. In Samagoan (3450m) we visit the glacial green lake of Birendra, before crossing into mystic Samdo, a mere 15km from the Tibetan border. Here Tibetan monks inhabit sacred monasteries and combined with the views of Tibetan plateau against stark white Himalayas makes this is a truly spiritual place. Continuing, more monasteries await in Larkya Bazaar, along with the biggest challenge - crossing Larkya La (pass.) This 5213m snow-covered pass demands the utmost respect. Snow-covered peaks over 6500m tower above as we cross. The descent, once off the snow takes us through alpine then tropical areas, bursting with ferns, bamboo, pine trees, waterfalls and aqua-blue green lakes laced with cotton-white beaches. Finally, Manaslu will disappear as we descend to Beshishar (832m.) This 3 week excursion will leave you with a sense of peace and respect for the people of Nepal and its cological wonders.

MUSTANG TREKmustang.jpg (19246 bytes)

Mustang was only opened to trekkers in 1991. The Department of Immigration issues only a small number of special permits, to protect the local Tibetan traditions from outside influence as well as to protect the environment. This semi-autonomous, heavily Tibetan influenced region was described by Tilman as "fascinatingly ugly country, the more fascinating for being so little known." Indeed, the trek to Lo Manthang is through an almost treeless barren landscape, along a steeply undulating rocky trail, from which there are panoramic views of Nilgiri, Annapurna, Dhaulagiri and a range of other soaring peaks.

DHAULAGIRI TREK

This region is new territory for trekkers. Trekking off the main paths is not only possible, but can be immensely rewarding, though you do need a sense of adventure and an increased ability to deal with unexpected.Geographically, Dhaulagiri region is a land ofdhaulagiri.jpg (17806 bytes) dramatic contrast. From the near tropicalPokhara valley, steep slopes climb to snowcapped Himalayan giants.Dhaulagiri 1, the seventh tallest peak in the world, towers high above the well-trekkedMuktinath pilgrim trail up the Kali Gandaki valley. The vast massif screens the hidden land of Dolpo to its north west. Following the rivers upstream, ferns and forests of oak and other deciduous trees and juniper are interesting. Mountain sides of rhododendron blaze with colour in the spring, and other flowers are abundant on the trail. Even on high mountain passes above the tree line, tiny alpine flowers can be found dotting the windswept ground.

DOLPO TREK

dolpo.jpg (17502 bytes)Dolpo is located inside the Shey- Phoksumdo National Park of mid- western Nepal, behind the Dhaulagiri massif, towards the Tibetan Plateau. Dolpo remains a truly isolated corner of Nepal: time has stood still here for centuries as the inhabitants of Tibetan stock continue to live, cultivate and trade the way they have done since time immemorial. The ecosystem encompasses a wild and wonderful variety of plants and wildlife, including the blue sheep and snow leopard. A trek through Dolpo is an experience not easily forgotten.

SIMIKOT TREKsimikot.jpg (18570 bytes)

SIMIKOT - KAILASH - SIMIKOT

TIBET:
Tibet one of those extraordinary destination where indeed adventure lurks around every corner! Adventure on the road is never short on the beautiful Transhimalayan drive, through mountain, passes, promising a panorama of a cultural and scenic diversity unsurpassable anywhere.

MANASAROVAR & HOLY MT. KAILASH:
Kailash: Mt.Kailash claimed to be the apex of the Hindu religious axis is also one of the highest mountain in Tibet at 22,022 feet, and Lake Mansarovar at 14,950 feet is said to be the highest fresh water lake in the world. Certainly a difficult region to reach due to the variable and extreme weather conditions. The distance from Lhasa for example is approximately 2000 km.

Only during the last few years have lots of ordinary and not so ordinary travellers, been able to experience this region. Road conditions are difficult much of the time and we have to make many preparations to ensure that we have a reasonable chance of reaching Kailash. We need to bring our own food and camping equipment. Basic lodges and tea-houses can be found but the plateau is so remote that it is possible to travel for several days without finding food available.

To travel for days on this remote plateau with the chance encounters of nomads herding their sheep or yaks is to be transformed into another way of life, to see and become part of such a devout pilgrimage as shown by pilgrims around Mt.Kailash and Lake Mansarovar is to put some aspects of our western way of life into proper perspective.


HUMLA VALLEY:
In May 1993 The governemnts of Nepal and China reached on an accord that allowed the first treks across the border between the two countres. While it had been a route for Nepali pilgrims for years, foreign trekkers were never allowed to trek from Nepal into Tibet. It has always been possible, however, to bend or ignore the rules. Though the raison d’etre for this trek it theoriticaly pilgrimage to Mt. Kailash in Tibet, the trek through Humla, Nepal’s highest, northmost and most remote district, is worth the trek by itself.

The lower Humla, Limi valley and upper Humla Karnali valley ar populated by “Bhitias” who trade extensively with Tibet in tradtiional ways that have totally vanished elsewhere. It is only near Simikot, the district headquarters, that you will encounter people of the other groups, mostly Thakuri and Chhetris.
