Manaslu Region Treks

Manaslu is the seventh highest mountain peak in the world. Located in the western part of Nepal with an elevation of 8163m. This giant peak is inside the Manaslu Conservation Area. Which is one of the protected regions of Nepal. Inside the Manaslu Conservation Area, there are two most popular and adventurous trekking trails. which are also called Manaslu Region Treks. They are Manaslu Round or Circuit Trek and Tsum Valley Trek. Even can combine both this trek together as Manaslu Tsum Valley Trek.

This beautiful spirit mountain area is the most diverse land in Nepal. Because it’s not only naturally beautiful. Also, culturally and traditionally amazing. Because here are living the ethnic group of people who follow Buddhist and Hindu both culture and traditions. This region is connected with the border of China (Tibet) so the culture here is influenced by the Tibetan culture and traditions. And in the upper part and lower part people follow the Nepali culture because the lower part is more influenced by Nepali culture and traditions.

As I mentioned the popular trekking trails in the Manaslu Region Treks are Manaslu Circuit Trek and Tsum Valley Trek. Among these two the Manaslu circuit Trek is more popular. To do this trek requires a special permit which is only issued by a registered trekking company. And from the Nepal Immigration office. Manaslu Circuit Trek is the best alternative trek for Annapurna and Everest Trekking. Because this trekking has all the similarities of Everest and Annapurna region treks. And the best thing is that no need to worry about flight and weather conditions. Still need to worry about high altitude.
