16Days Upper Mustang Trek to Lo Manthang

Description

Upper Mustang Trek to Lo Manthang

Upper Mustang Trek to the forbidden walled city

Upper Mustang Trek takes you to the mysterious & forbidden “Lo Manthang ”a walled city, capital of Mustang ruled by a religious King. Being in the rain shadow rainfall in mustang is much less than the rest of Nepal. Thus creating a barren landscape bereft of trees and vegetation decorated with eroded sandstone pillars & broken moraines.

Constantly hounded by the whistling winds where you can hear the tinkling of prayer bells & where prayer flags keep on fluttering in the never ending cascade of Himalayan winds. Trek through tree less terrain of the mysterious Himalayas, untouched by modern civilization. Decorated with spectacular Dhaulagiri and Annapurna  mountains in it’s background. A place worth a life time makes it “The Greatest Trek ever”.
