Manaslu Circuit Trek

Dan Alvarez's (From Colorado USA)

This is a difficult trek, however, you are in the best possible hands with Pasang. It was beautiful when I did this trek. The weather was amazing, and the trip was truly once in a lifetime! I would make sure you are in good shape for this trek, but Pasang will make sure to take care of you the entire way. He was great at checking how each member of the trek was doing. He made sure we were going at a pace that worked for everyone. He will take into consideration how you are acclimating to the elevation and he will definitely make sure you have enough to eat throughout!

{"id":64,"activity_id":5,"destination_id":1,"title":"Manaslu Circuit Trek","alias":"manaslu-circuit-treks","overview":"<p><a href=\"\/package\/kanchenjunga-circuit-trek\" title=\"Manaslu Trek\">The Manaslu Circuit Trek<\/a> is a challenging and rewarding trek that takes you around the world&rsquo;s eighth-highest mountain, Manaslu, at 8,163 meters (26,781 ft). The trek offers stunning views of the Himalayan peaks, diverse landscapes, rich culture, and wildlife. <strong>The trek typically lasts 11 to 14 days<\/strong> and requires a special permit. The highest point of the trek is the Larkya La Pass at 5,106 meters (16,752 ft), which is often covered with snow and ice. The best time to do Manaslu Circuit Trek is generally during the spring (March, April, and May) and autumn (September, October, and November) seasons. These seasons offer moderate temperatures, clear skies, less rainfall and snowfall, and great visibility of the mountains and landscapes. The spring season also brings colorful flowers such as rhododendron along the lower trails. The autumn season coincides with some major festivals in Nepal such as Dashain and Tihar.<\/p>\r\n<p>However, some trekkers also choose to do the trek during the winter (<strong>December, January, and February<\/strong>) and monsoon (June, July, and August) seasons. These seasons are less crowded and cheaper than the peak seasons, but they also pose more challenges and risks. The winter season can be very cold and snowy, especially at higher altitudes, making the trek more difficult and dangerous. The monsoon season can be very wet and humid, causing landslides, leeches, muddy trails, and poor visibility. Therefore, depending on your preference, budget, experience, and physical condition, you can choose the best time to do <a href=\"\/package\/manaslu-circuit-trek\">Manaslu Circuit Trek<\/a>. However, it is advisable to consult with a local specialist <strong>before planning your trek<\/strong> to get the latest information on weather, permits, trails, and safety.<\/p>","cost_includes":"<ul>\r\n<li>Accommodation in guesthouses\/tea house \/lodge with breakfast during the trek<\/li>\r\n<li>Government-licensed, experienced English-speaking guide<\/li>\r\n<li>One porter for 2 people<\/li>\r\n<li>Food, accommodation, salary, insurance, equipment, and medicine for all staff.<\/li>\r\n<li>All government taxes.<\/li>\r\n<li>One trekking map per person<\/li>\r\n<li>Permits and conservation fees<\/li>\r\n<li>Sleeping bags and Down jackets for the trek (should be refunded after the trek)<\/li>\r\n<li>Surface transportation.<\/li>\r\n<li>First aid kit<\/li>\r\n<li>Especially permit for Manaslu<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p><quillbot-extension-portal><\/quillbot-extension-portal><\/p>\r\n<p><quillbot-extension-portal><\/quillbot-extension-portal><\/p>\r\n<p><quillbot-extension-portal><\/quillbot-extension-portal><\/p>\r\n<p><quillbot-extension-portal><\/quillbot-extension-portal><\/p>\r\n<p><quillbot-extension-portal><\/quillbot-extension-portal><\/p>\r\n<p><quillbot-extension-portal><\/quillbot-extension-portal><\/p>","cost_excludes":"<ul>\r\n<li class=\"\">Your travel and rescue insurance.<\/li>\r\n<li>Nepal entry visa<\/li>\r\n<li>Tips for guide, porter, and driver.<\/li>\r\n<li>Beverage bills, bar bills, telephone bills, and Personal expenses.<\/li>\r\n<li>Excess baggage charges (if you have more than 10 kg of luggage, a cargo charge is around $1.5 per kg)<\/li>\r\n<li class=\"Active\">Extra night accommodation in Kathmandu because of early arrival, late departure, or early return from the mountain (due to any reason) than the scheduled itinerary<\/li>\r\n<li>Lunch and evening meals in Kathmandu (and also in the case of early return from the mountain than the scheduled itinerary)<\/li>\r\n<li>Optional trips and sightseeing if extended<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p><quillbot-extension-portal><\/quillbot-extension-portal><\/p>\r\n<p><quillbot-extension-portal><\/quillbot-extension-portal><\/p>\r\n<p><quillbot-extension-portal><\/quillbot-extension-portal><\/p>\r\n<p><quillbot-extension-portal><\/quillbot-extension-portal><\/p>\r\n<p><quillbot-extension-portal><\/quillbot-extension-portal><\/p>\r\n<p><quillbot-extension-portal><\/quillbot-extension-portal><\/p>","trip_highlights":"<ul>\r\n<li class=\"Active\">Crossing the highest point at Larkya La Pass (5,125M)<\/li>\r\n<li>Unspoiled and less commercialized trekking route<\/li>\r\n<li>Typical ethnic villages and magnificent views of the Himalayas!<\/li>\r\n<li>Stunning view of some of the highest peaks in the world- Manaslu,<span> <\/span>Himlung, Annapurna II<\/li>\r\n<li><span>Friendly people, and rich culture of the region which includes both Nepalese &amp;
