Trip overview
A quick read on the route, the comfort level, the pricing rhythm, and the details most travelers want before they get in touch.
Quick answer
The Upper Mustang trekking isn’t an ordinary remote valley trekking in Nepal. The entire area of the Upper Mustang -from the Tibetan border in the north to Kaagbeni in the south- tucks in several unique experiences for trekkers to feed their eyes and soul. From the panorama of Nilgiri, Dhaulagiri, Annapurna, and other marvelous ranges towards the south, to the trans-Himalayan climate (cool and semi-arid), and the Tibetan–influenced, pristine medieval Buddhist arts, architecture, and exotic culture & tradition dating back to the 13th and the 15th century – all contribute to making this, one of the super trekking destinations in Nepal.

Beyond the majestic Himalayan range, in the Rainshadow of the mighty Annapurna and Dhaulagiri range rests a beautifully mysterious village – The Upper Mustang. Very popular as the former Kingdom of Lo, this mystic valley is also known to many as the ‘Mini Tibet of Nepal’, the ‘Last Forbidden Himalayan Kingdom of Nepal’, and even the ‘Mountain Desert in Nepal’. Straddling the Himalayas, the district extends north towards the Tibetan plateau.
It offers gorgeous scope for visiting Buddhist monasteries, the King’s Palace built around 1400, temples built during the 15th century; the opportunity to be a part of the very famous Tiji festival and observe the native culture in Lo Manthang and the very rare polyandry system. Trekking to Upper Mustang is also an alternate way to experience the Tibetan culture and landscape.
Opened for visitors only in the year 1991, this trekking isn't possible without a permit. The adventure starts right from the world’s deepest gorge of the Kaligandaki region, following the same trade route (the bank of Kali Gandaki) used in the 15th century, traversing the treeless barren landscape, steep and rocky trail, high peaks, passes, glaciers, a series of 12 caves decorated with 13th-century Newari-influenced paintings & Tibetan scripts executed in ink, silver, and gold and pre-Christian era pottery shards and the alpine valleys, into the world’s highest region of Lo Manthang valley.
Along the way, you can also enjoy the lifestyle, settlement, and hospitality of Thakali, Gurung, and Tibetan people inhabiting the remotest areas of Mustang.
