Manaslu
Manaslu Circuit Trek
A restricted-area circuit around Manaslu for trekkers who want fewer crowds than Annapurna.
Manaslu is the circuit people choose after they have seen the classic trails. It requires a restricted-area permit and a licensed guide — both of which we arrange in Kathmandu before departure.
The trail follows the Budhi Gandaki, crosses Larke La, and finishes toward the Annapurna side. Expect long days and a genuine sense of remoteness.
