Description

Upper Mustang Trek is exploring the ancient Tibetan Buddhist kingdom of Mustang. Mustang is the land of trans-Himalayas that discover the numerous Tibetan monasteries and stunning scenarios too.
Upper Mustang Trek is a bit like life and climbing, never look down. We have enough time to discover some unique cultures in a once ‘no entry’’ kingdom. Above all, the view of striking houses with the warm & friendly people gives us much joy on this trip. The Upper Mustang Trek area is a blessing of brilliant landscapes that excites the heart.

Mustang Trek is a walk north of Annapurna at a usual altitude of 3800m. The valleys are barren and dry with colourful rocks and many cave dwellings high up on the cliffs. The first trekking groups got an ‘okay’ to enter Upper Mustang only in 1992. Therefore, only a very few people (about 700 trekkers yearly) visit Upper Mustang. Consequently, our Upper Mustang Trek itinerary leads us through quiet trails with fewer crowds. Moreover, we get to view peaceful Tibetan culture amid friendly settlements. This outstanding trek includes several long trekking days and a hike through the deepest gorge in the world. Likewise, the hike follows wonderful trails through large villages that once were a successful trade route between Nepal and Tibet.
