Manaslu Trek |
This area, long closed to foreigners because of
its proximity to the Chinese border has recently been opened.
The trails are relatively less trekked, culture and traditions
are less affected and the scenery one of the best in Nepal.
This is a fascinating course around Manaslu (8,163m) and its
three peaks known as the Japanese Peaks ascending along Buri
Gandaki River and through contrasting worlds of Lho, Sama gaon
(3,450m) and crossing the highest point of the trek Larkya La
(5,213m), which is a mere 8 km from Tibet border. A classic
vista opens to the west Himlung Himal (7,126m), Cheo Himal,
Gyaji Kang, Kang guru (6,981m) and Annapurna II (7,937m). From
Larkya La, the descent is steep and usually snow covered upto
Tanbuche. From Tanbuche the narrow trail enters a wide meadow
where we camp. Then we follow the white Dudh Khola river banks
passing though magnificent forests of rhododendron, Pine and
Juniper which then give way to apple orchards around Thonje and
Dharapani. As we descend further the alpine vegetation gives way
to subtropical lushness. We then walk down the Marshyangdi Khola
river valley to Besishahar, the end point of the trek. From
Besishahar there is regular local bus service to Dumre and from
then on to Kathmandu by private transport. |
