Overview
Manaslu Circuit Trek is pretty unique–compared to other popular trekking destinations in Nepal, such as the Everest region and the Annapurna region. This route is full of the beaten tracks.
Manaslu region is one of the isolated trekking regions that offer several thrilling trekking routes and mountain adventures in the entire world. If you are seeking the best experience of venturing into the wild and remote areas coupled with episodes of romanticism and genuine knowledge, a completely different world beyond the existing one, then this Manaslu trek is just for you.
The Manaslu trekking route takes you to some of the remotest villages, several beautiful waterfalls, crossing amazing rivers and enchanting landscapes of lush green land and the magical mountain ranges.
Manaslu circuit trekking path lies in the preservation area of the Manaslu region, which has so far kept safe the wildlife and vegetation in their natural state. You will observe the natural beauty unaltered or very less influenced by modern touch. The local tribes have learned to co-exist with high respect and regards to nature and its components.
This beautiful Manaslu Circuit trek starts from Soti Khola at Budi Gandaki river valley. As you pass Aarughat following the trails alongside the spectacular river of Budhi Gandaki, you reach the highest point in Larke pass at the elevation of 5125m, which takes you to tougher descent towards the trail of famous Annapurna Circuit Trekking and finally to the endpoint of Besisahar.
If you’ve just been to the Annapurna circuit, this Manaslu trek can be an incredible other option. It is a 14-day trek that begins at Soti Khola and finishes at Beshi Sahar. We can also stretch Manaslu Trek out to 22 days with an extra side trek to the Tsum valley.
Why Manaslu Circuit Trek
Manaslu Circuit Trek is a classic trek in Nepal that takes you remote sections of Nepal with stunning landscapes. The trek is wild and isolated, and the scenery provides everything that Nepal offers. Here are a few reasons to trek to Manaslu Circuit:
- Manaslu Region, between Jagat and Dharapani, is a restricted area for tourism control. So, trekking to the restricted area will be full of adventures and thrills with a classic touch of nature.
- Crossing the high mountain pass, Larkya La Pass at 5106 m is itself an adventurous journey.
- You will walk through the forest trails with fantastic mountain views that showcases the wilderness of the region. Trekking through these trails will add a natural scent to your Manaslu trek.
- Many monasteries, gompas, and Mani walls on how to reflect Buddhism and their culture.
- You will explore the Birendra Tal, a freshwater Lake in the Manaslu Glacier with our trekking experts.
- You will trek through the remote villages, rocky landscapes, and beautiful streams that provide a great sense of a village lifestyle in the hilly region. These regions are less touched by modernization and are in their natural form.
- During your rest day at Samagaon, we will trek to Birendra Tal, or Manaslu Base Camp, the base camp of the world’s 8th highest mountain, Manaslu.
- Manaslu Trek is a restricted and new trekking route, so there will be a few travelers in the region. It can be a benefit for you, as the routes will be calm. You will hear the sounds of rivers and streams, the chirping of birds, and the cool breeze that blows from the great Manaslu instead of human voices. You will forget each agony and start enjoying yourself in the Manaslu Region.

Philim is a large Gurung village in the region where one can notice the dominance of the Buddhist religion. The colourful prayer flags, stupas, and monasteries in the town give a positive vibe of Buddhism religion prevalent there. From Philim, we traverse through the dense forests of pine and rhododendron to Deng. We can see the beautiful waterfall cascading in such a beautiful environment.

Today is one of the most awaited days of our Manaslu Circuit Trek because we are going to cross Larkya La, which is the highest point of our trek. So, we start our day early.

It’s essential to check that you carry enough items in your bag before the commencement of your journey. As the trek takes you to the mountainous area, so carry warm clothes with you. Likewise, you will walk for 5-6 hours a day, so bring you comfortable boots and clothing for trekking.
Further, pack your bags with the things that protect you from rain, cold, sun and things that make you able to move efficiently in the mountains.
Heaven Himalaya provides porters to carry your bags. But understand that they will be there to help you succeed for the trek, so do not exceed more than 20 Kg.
Besides, here’s recommended packing list and Equipment that is needed for trekking in Nepal. We hope this helps you in packing your bag more efficiently.
There are a series of hotels, and lodges in Kathmandu based on your interest and budget. As you hike up the mountains, we will use the best amiable teahouses and lodges operated by local communities.
The teahouses are comfortable with two single beds in a room. There is a typical territory for dinners and unwinding, which is an incredible spot to remain warm around the fire around evening time.
The best time to go on a Manaslu Circuit Trek is during autumn (September- November) and spring (March-May) Seasons in Nepal. The days are bright and cool, which provides unobstructed views of the things around in the mountains.
During Monsoon, the trails become slippery and full of leeches. The continuous rainfall might affect the journey. So, we don't recommend trekking to Manaslu during the summer in Nepal. Likewise, trekking in winter can also be a good option, but the fog might cover all the beautiful scenes of the mountains. Also, the extreme cold in the mountains might become problematic for you.
Trekking in the Manaslu region was only opened for a maximum of 400 trekkers in the year 1992. Still, we need a Restricted Area Permit for Manaslu (Manaslu RAP) to enter the region. Likewise, you will need the Manaslu Conservation Area Project (MCAP Permit) to enter the Conservation Area. Further, we will trek through the Annapurna Conservation Area for two days, so we also need the Annapurna Conservation Area Project (ACAP Permit).
Manaslu circuit trek is open for all, and yet foreign travelers may not wander or trek alone. You must hire a guide or at least a porter allowed by the Nepal Trekking association. Trekking with an agency has two benefits. First is that you get to see the best of the region, always getting adequate and real information about most of everything, which also helps in the preservation of the natural and environmental aspects. Second, you will contribute to the economic uplift of local guides and entrepreneurs.
There's nothing to worry about because Heaven Himalaya will fulfill the requirements and arrange all the permits in your name.
The Manaslu trekking routes are rough and require much effort both physically and mentally to overcome the stress and tiredness. As you progress, you will cross the highest pass of Larke pass, which is 5125m above sea level. Thus, compared to Annapurna and Everest, the Manaslu Circuit trek is strenuous in difficulty level because of lack of proper paved or constructed paths and guided routes. Similarly, the variation of the altitude can be very challenging to cope with for the people traveling here for the first time.
So, it’s always a better option to train for any kind of trekking in the Mountains before you start the journey. You can walk or hike at least a few kilometers daily for almost 2, 3 weeks. You can work on your cardiovascular fitness in the Gym. Most of all, mental preparation is a fundamental thing before starting any treks and hikes in the mountains.
If you are confident about the trek and have firm determination to step into the journey, then you will be successful. We will offer you a guide and porters during your trip. The porters will help you carry your loads, and the guide will be there to explain things and boost your immunity.

Trip of a lifetime- Annapurna Circuit Trek
Heaven Himalaya Team offers a magnificently arranged trekking involvement in Nepal. Ramhari answered instantly to all my messages. They make a solid effort to make your vacation in Nepal an extraordinary one and genuinely went well beyond my desires.
I couldn't remember the name of the guide but my boy, you were more than amazing. I wish you good luck in the days to come.
Everything from pickup to trekking in the mountains was very professional with excellent service.
So, I strongly suggest everyone and will trek with Heaven Himalaya again in the future.
Glorious Experience in EBC Trek
We did an EBC trek with Ram and his team back in April 2019, and it was a glorious experience. Ram is a very knowledgeable, resourceful, and very helpful guide. 2 of us got unwell during the trek, and he was very prompt and took care of us in any way that was available.
We enjoyed our chat and his sense of humor along the trail and at the teahouses. He even got us a special breakfast and pickle salad at Namche Bazaar and always fulfilled the strange request with our dietary needs. EBC trek is amazing. With Ram, it is even more spectacular. Thanks for the amazing trip. Looking forward to island peak climb in the future.
Incredible Scenery and Service
I trekked up to Basecamp with Ram and his Heaven Himalaya team last year and had incredible Scenery and Service. The scenery is just awesome, and Ram took amazing care of everyone in our group. He kept us all entertained and motivated and most importantly, healthy. Can't recommend him highly enough!
Best Experience Ever, Thank You Ram
My wife and I spent our honeymoon in the mountains. We made the Three Passes Trek in the Everest region. I can certainly say that it was the ultimate outdoor experience we have ever had, simply astonishing. I'm also very sure that a great part of enjoying that experience the way we did was thanks to our guide (Ram). He's a highly expert in the mountains and more importantly a great person with a big heart and always a smile to offer.
Everest Base Camp Trek
I did the Everest Base Camp Trek back in Nov’18 and it was an awesome experience. My guide, Ram was fantastic, very knowledgeable, and professional. He was very good in all the preparations that he made and was very attentive to my needs. He was very thorough explaining all parts of the trek and he took good care of me, especially I was exhausted on the last day of the trek, he pushed and helped me out to ensure I made it to EBC. I highly recommend going with Ram if you ever wanted to do any treks in Nepal.
