Expedition
Type:
Multi-discipline scientists &
students. Natural and Cultural Expedition in the restricted area in
Himalayas .
The
177 km trek around Manaslu provides strong walkers the best that Nepal has to
offer:
What's special of this expedition?
Manaslu,
at 8,163 m, is 8th highest mountain in the world. It is
known among climbers as "Killer Peak" for its soaring summit
surrounded by dramatic slopes meandering down to lush green valleys and meadows.
Trekking around Manaslu offers a unique opportunity to experience a relatively
untouched region of Nepal. Fantastic mountain scenery spanning altitudes
from 375 m to 5300 m, a diverse range of eco-systems and ethnic cultures, and a
trail that puts one physically
closer to Tibet than any other trek in Nepal.
