Deluxe Manaslu Circuit Trek

Deluxe Manaslu Circuit Trek - 18 Days

What is the Deluxe Manaslu Circuit Trek and What Makes It Deluxe?

Mount Manaslu, the eighth highest mountain in the world, offers one of the most breathtaking trekking experiences. The trek includes crossing Larke La Pass (5,106m) to connect with the Annapurna Circuit, making it a remarkable journey through the Manaslu Conservation Area. This region is remote and moderately challenging, regulated under a restricted trekking trail that requires a special trekking permit.

The Deluxe Manaslu Circuit Trek organized by NETTA begins with an overland jeep drive to Sotikhola-Arughat in the Gorkha district, which takes approximately 9–10 hours. We will need to present our special trekking permits to enter the area. While the lodgings along this route are typically simple guest houses or homestays, we carefully select the best available accommodations to ensure a deluxe experience with top-notch services.

During this trek, we traverse the high Larke La Pass and join the famous Annapurna Circuit before concluding our journey in Besisahar. As there are no road connections along this route, we will take a local jeep from Dharapani to Besisahar and Kathmandu. One of the most appealing aspects of this trek is that you will start and finish in different locations, allowing for a unique experience without repeating any days on the same trail. This feature adds significant value for trekkers.

Moreover, the Manaslu trekking trail sees fewer trekkers compared to popular routes like Annapurna or Everest, thanks to its remoteness, the special permit system, and restrictions on individual backpacker trekkers. This makes the Manaslu Circuit a true hidden gem for those seeking an unforgettable adventure.

Thanks, Pasang, for following up after the trek.

My review of the Manaslu trek is as follows, for anyone looking for the best recommendation on who to trek with in Nepal.

There are many cheap and low-cost packages for the Manaslu trek available online. However, after doing thorough research, I realized that I wanted to stay in modern lodges with added services like attached bathrooms and hot showers wherever possible. After a few days of research, I decided to join Pasang's company, Nepal Trekking Tourism. They clearly offered a deluxe Manaslu Circuit trek with attached bathroom lodges and hot showers in more than 98% of the trekking trail. Additionally, they provided us with the best lodges on the trek.

Not only did they offer high-quality lodges, but they also provided a variety of delicious food options, allowing us to choose what we wanted to eat each day. Our guide and porter were sincere and took great care of our well-being. They paid attention to what we ate, our sleeping arrangements, and ensured we were enjoying ourselves.

They also arranged a comfortable 4WD for our transportation to the trek's starting point and back to Kathmandu after the trek. The hotels, sightseeing in Kathmandu, and all other services were excellent. To top it off, they offered us a free farewell body massage, which was a wonderful touch.

Overall, we had an incredible experience on the Manaslu trek with Pasang’s company, and we would love to join them for another trek in the future.
