A restricted area circuit around the world's eighth highest mountain at 8,163m
The Manaslu Circuit is a restricted area trek that takes you around Mount Manaslu (8,163m), the world's eighth highest peak. The route crosses the Larkya La Pass at 5,160m and passes through some of the most remote villages in Nepal. Trekker numbers are controlled by permit so the trail stays genuinely quiet. A proper wilderness circuit for those who have done the classics and want something more raw
We will either take a public bus or car, stopping along the way for a lunch break. Tonight we will stay at Soti Khola.
Today our trek begins as we cross the Soti Khola and then trek towards Khorla Besi which lies above the rapids of the Buri Gandaki. The trial continues and passes farmland growing rice before we reach Lapubesi. Along the trail we see the snow-covered ranges making up the Shringi Himal and makes its way down to Nauli Khola over a long suspension bridge before arriving at Machha Khola. Continuing we find ourselves in the scenic Buri Gandaki Valley and then ascend to Lapu Besi and finally to Khorla Bensi where we stay the night.
