Manaslu Region Trekking is the popular choice for trekkers looking for an eccentric experience through off-the-beaten-path treks in Nepal. As an isolated region, it has managed to stay mostly void of the effects of modernization and has preserved its nature, wildlife and culture in the pristine state. The Manaslu Region was opened to visitors only recently, in the early 90’s as a restricted area for trekking.

The Manaslu region is situated in the center of the Nepalese Himalayas, and is a region known for its pristine valleys, stunning mountain vistas and unique culture and lifestyle of the locals. Manaslu Region Trekking offers the chance to enjoy the breathtaking views of Manaslu, Ganesh Himal Range, Sringi Himala, Naike Peak, Cheo Himal, Ratna Chuli and more!

Apart from the scenic mountain vistas, another reason for the popularity of trekking in Manaslu has to be the region’s people and their culture. Particularly the locals of Tsum Valley, known as Tsumbas, who follow their own unique culture and lifestyle influenced by the Buddhist religion. The presence of various monasteries, some dating back to centuries old, further add to the rich cultural experience while trekking in Manaslu.

Much of the trekking in Manaslu takes place in the Manaslu Conservation Area. It is a protected region that covers a total area of 1,663 sq. km. It covers a wide altitude range from around 1,500m to over 8,000 meters meaning there is a lot of diversity here in terms of geography, biodiversity as well as the people and their lifestyle. The typical alpine vegetation and Himalayan wildlife consist of rhododendrons, junipers, pine, pheasants, snow leopards, Himalayan black bears, red pandas and more. Going by the numbers, there are over 110 species of birds, 33 species of mammals and anywhere between 1500 – 2000 species of plants.
