Upper Mustang Trekking Overviews 

Upper Mustang Trekking is a rare opportunity. Located in the northernmost part of Western Nepal, Mustang is known as the Land beyond the Himalayas. The sky-high mountains lie to the south of Mustang, which in itself is a rare sight to see. 16-day upper mustang trek will take you to a beautiful and ancient civilization in the lap of the silver mountains. Until the 1950s, Mustang district was a separate kingdom within the boundaries of Nepal. The last king’s impressive palace is still a major attraction of the region. Since the region geographically lies in the Tibetan Plateau, the trek will feel a lot like a one in Tibet. It is also known as “Mini Tibet of Nepal”. The Upper Mustang Trekking will unlock the doors to the Trans-Himalayan landscape that look too good to be real. It also offers a unique chance to witness the prosperous ancient civilization and how it has sustained so well. Throughout the trek, we will visit several Buddhist shrines like the Chhortens, Stupas, Prayer walls and notably, centuries-old historic monasteries. We will also interact with the local in their beautiful villages for a memorable time. The journey to Lo Manthang – Mountain Desert – is an incredibly gratifying experience for trekkers who want to trek through wilderness and explore civilizations in some of the highest elevations, so close to soaring Himalayas.

The 16-day-long Upper Mustang trekking, the journey begins with a trek with a scenic ride from Kathmandu to Pokhara. From Pokhara, we will catch a plane to Mustang’s headquarter – Jomsom. The trekking begins from Jomsom as we trek to Kagbeni, the gateway to Upper Mustang. From here, we will trek through iconic settlements like Chele, Geling, and Tsarang for three days to reach the kingdom of Lo Manthang. We have allocated a full day to explore the beautifully walled settlement. We can visit the royal palace and ancient monasteries to further explore the region. During the return trek, we will hike down to Jomsom through old-fashioned villages like Dhamkar, Ghiling, and Tsugsang. From here, we will trek back to Jomsom and catch a flight to Pokhara, on arrival at Kathmandu, we have a heritage sightseeing tour planned for you within the valley.

In addition to the cultural revelation, the Upper Mustang Trekking also rewards trekkers with outstanding views of the colossal Nilgiri Mountain range and Dhaulagiri Massif. The trek also offers pretty amazing views of the Annapurna range. Another main highlight of the trek is trekking through the Kali Gandaki Gorge. Situated between Annapurna and Dhaulagiri range, it is also the deepest formed gorge in the world. All the beautiful landmarks, warm and welcoming locals and natural wonders make Upper Mustang Trek a truly unforgettable one.

Upper Mustang trekking lies in the Himalayan rain shadow;thus, it does not receive a high extent of rainfall, making it suitable to trek even in rainy seasons. This extremely gratifying trek does not consist of any notable technical difficulty. Since the highest elevation of the trek is only 3,800m, any individual in good physical health can easily complete it. However, it is very cold and windy throughout the year, making it not very preferable to trek during the winter season.

Everything went so smooth and well organized. The trekking was more than beautiful from starting to the end. Lots of traditional people were met on this route. Very few people away from crowds which makes sense after you pay hefty fees to enter the area. I am totally satisfied with this trekking, this was an amazing experience! The trek was arranged nicely and the staffs were very caring. We had a great experience on the trek with our excellent guide. We would highly recommend Raj and Team Himalaya.

What a great experience on Upper Mustang Trek within a high windswept country

What a great experience on Upper Mustang Trek within a high windswept country, an extension of vast Tibetan South West plateau. Truly a picturesque land and worth visiting once in a life time to witness the dramatic wild landscapes. Thanks to Team Himalaya for organizing this wonderful Upper Mustang Trekking, it was a great wonderful adventure. Walking through giant wide canyon and windblown towering rocky cliff dotted with caves, and exploring the traditional villages. It was so exciting reaching the former walled kingdom of Lo-Manthang and walking around interesting long rows of Mani / prayer walls.
The guide was super as well the whole team of staff, made the trip so enjoyable and unforgettable.

Beautiful Trekking to Upper Mustang

Never believed that Nepal would be so beautiful trekking to Upper Mustang, it was picturesque with photogenic landscapes. Although a desert like terrain with windswept dry country, but it had a charm of great beauty. The local villages adorned with impressive Buddhist cultures was fascinating to explore. 
 What an amazing country of scenic surroundings and entering the former forbidden walled kingdom of Lo-Manthang. It reminded me of medieval time era, surely a great and unbelievable place on this planet.  
 I was lucky to join this trek with Team Himalaya, offered good price than other local companies. The guide and staff was great showing us the wonderful places around Upper Mustang and at Lo-Manthang. 
 Certainly a recommendable place to experience whether on treks or taking the comfort of a four-wheel drive. Well worth visiting to Upper Mustang to explore the beautiful country and its magnificent cultures.

Upper Mustang Trekking Overviews 

Upper Mustang Trekking is a rare opportunity. Located in the northernmost part of Western Nepal, Mustang is known as the Land beyond the Himalayas. The sky-high mountains lie to the south of Mustang, which in itself is a rare sight to see. 16-day upper mustang trek will take you to a beautiful and ancient civilization in the lap of the silver mountains. Until the 1950s, Mustang district was a separate kingdom within the boundaries of Nepal. The last king’s impressive palace is still a major attraction of the region. Since the region geographically lies in the Tibetan Plateau, the trek will feel a lot like a one in Tibet. It is also known as “Mini Tibet of Nepal”. The Upper Mustang Trekking will unlock the doors to the Trans-Himalayan landscape that look too good to be real. It also offers a unique chance to witness the prosperous ancient civilization and how it has sustained so well. Throughout the trek, we will visit several Buddhist shrines like the Chhortens, Stupas, Prayer walls and notably, centuries-old historic monasteries. We will also interact with the local in their beautiful villages for a memorable time. The journey to Lo Manthang – Mountain Desert – is an incredibly gratifying experience for trekkers who want to trek through wilderness and explore civilizations in some of the highest elevations, so close to soaring Himalayas.

The 16-day-long Upper Mustang trekking, the journey begins with a trek with a scenic ride from Kathmandu to Pokhara. From Pokhara, we will catch a plane to Mustang’s headquarter – Jomsom. The trekking begins from Jomsom as we trek to Kagbeni, the gateway to Upper Mustang. From here, we will trek through iconic settlements like Chele, Geling, and Tsarang for three days to reach the kingdom of Lo Manthang. We have allocated a full day to explore the beautifully walled settlement. We can visit the royal palace and ancient monasteries to further explore the region. During the return trek, we will hike down to Jomsom through old-fashioned villages like Dhamkar, Ghiling, and Tsugsang. From here, we will trek back to Jomsom and catch a flight to Pokhara, on arrival at Kathmandu, we have a heritage sightseeing tour planned for you within the valley.

In addition to the cultural revelation, the Upper Mustang Trekking also rewards trekkers with outstanding views of the colossal Nilgiri Mountain range and Dhaulagiri Massif. The trek also offers pretty amazing views of the Annapurna range. Another main highlight of the trek is trekking through the Kali Gandaki Gorge. Situated between Annapurna and Dhaulagiri range, it is also the deepest formed gorge in the world. All the beautiful landmarks, warm and welcoming locals and natural wonders make Upper Mustang Trek a truly unforgettable one.

Upper Mustang trekking lies in the Himalayan rain shadow;thus, it does not receive a high extent of rainfall, making it suitable to trek even in rainy seasons. This extremely gratifying trek does not consist of any notable technical difficulty. Since the highest elevation of the trek is only 3,800m, any individual in good physical health can easily complete it. However, it is very cold and windy throughout the year, making it not very preferable to trek during the winter season.

Everything went so smooth and well organized. The trekking was more than beautiful from starting to the end. Lots of traditional people were met on this route. Very few people away from crowds which makes sense after you pay hefty fees to enter the area. I am totally satisfied with this trekking, this was an amazing experience! The trek was arranged nicely and the staffs were very caring. We had a great experience on the trek with our excellent guide. We would highly recommend Raj and Team Himalaya.

If you are thinking of hiking in Nepal, Raj is one of the best guides you can possibly have. With his knowledge of the routes paths, and people - he will take you on a cultural experience as you enjoy the beauty of the mountains. I will definitely be returning one fine day and calling upon Raj's expertise to plan my trip :)

Team Himalaya is great!

What a great experience on Upper Mustang Trek within a high windswept country, an extension of vast Tibetan South West plateau. Truly a picturesque land and worth visiting once in a life time to witness the dramatic wild landscapes. Thanks to Team Himalaya for organizing this wonderful Upper Mustang Trekking, it was a great wonderful adventure. Walking through giant wide canyon and windblown towering rocky cliff dotted with caves, and exploring the traditional villages. It was so exciting reaching the former walled kingdom of Lo-Manthang and walking around interesting long rows of Mani / prayer walls.
The guide was super as well the whole team of staff, made the trip so enjoyable and unforgettable.

Never believed that Nepal would be so beautiful trekking to Upper Mustang, it was picturesque with photogenic landscapes. Although a desert like terrain with windswept dry country, but it had a charm of great beauty. The local villages adorned with impressive Buddhist cultures was fascinating to explore. 
 What an amazing country of scenic surroundings and entering the former forbidden walled kingdom of Lo-Manthang. It reminded me of medieval time era, surely a great and unbelievable place on this planet.  
 I was lucky to join this trek with Team Himalaya, offered good price than other local companies. The guide and staff was great showing us the wonderful places around Upper Mustang and at Lo-Manthang. 
 Certainly a recommendable place to experience whether on treks or taking the comfort of a four-wheel drive. Well worth visiting to Upper Mustang to explore the beautiful country and its magnificent cultures.
