Manaslu Circuit Trek in Nepal – Complete Guide

The Manaslu Circuit Trek is one of Nepal’s best trekking routes for adventurers seeking remote trails, cultural immersion, and high-altitude Himalayan landscapes. Circling Mount Manaslu (8,163 m / 26,781 ft), the trek combines raw mountain beauty with authentic village life, making it a strong alternative to the Everest Base Camp or Annapurna Circuit treks.

Location and Overview

The trek is located in the Gorkha District of Nepal, bordering Tibet. It follows ancient trade routes through the Budi Gandaki Valley, passes traditional Gurung and Tibetan villages, and crosses the challenging Larke La Pass (5,106 m). The region remains less commercialized than other trekking areas, giving trekkers a more authentic Himalayan experience.

Trekking Permits Required

The Manaslu region is a restricted area. Trekkers must have:

Manaslu Restricted Area Permit (RAP)

Manaslu Conservation Area Permit (MCAP)

Annapurna Conservation Area Permit (ACAP)

Independent trekking is not allowed. A minimum of two trekkers with a licensed guide is mandatory.

Standard Itinerary (12–14 Days)

The common route starts in Soti Khola and ends in Dharapani, linking with the Annapurna Circuit. A typical 14-day itinerary includes:

Drive from Kathmandu to Soti Khola

Soti Khola to Machha Khola

Machha Khola to Jagat

Jagat to Deng

Deng to Namrung

Namrung to Lho

Lho to Samagaon

Acclimatization at Samagaon (visit Pungyen Gompa or Manaslu Base Camp)

Samagaon to Samdo

Samdo to Dharamsala (Larke Phedi)

Cross Larke La Pass (5,106 m) – reach Bhimtang

Bhimtang to Tilije

Tilije to Dharapani

Drive to Kathmandu or Pokhara

Difficulty and Fitness Level

The Manaslu Circuit Trek is considered moderately difficult. Trails involve steep ascents, rocky terrain, and long trekking days. The high altitude at Larke La Pass poses the biggest challenge. Previous trekking experience and good physical fitness are recommended.

Cultural Highlights

Gurung villages in the lower region

Tibetan-influenced settlements around Samagaon and Samdo

Ancient monasteries such as Pungyen Gompa

Yak herding and traditional lifestyles preserved for generations

Natural Highlights

Close-up views of Mount Manaslu, Himal Chuli, Ngadi Chuli, and Ganesh Himal

Crossing the Larke La Pass with panoramic Himalayan scenery

Pine and rhododendron forests, waterfalls, and glacial rivers

Alpine valleys and traditional farming terraces

Best Season to Trek

Autumn (September–November): Stable weather, clear skies, best mountain views.

Spring (March–May): Blooming rhododendrons, warmer temperatures.

Winter (Dec–Feb): Possible but challenging with heavy snow at high passes.

Monsoon (June–August): Not recommended due to landslides and leeches.

Accommodation and Food

The trek is a teahouse trek. Local families provide basic lodges with twin beds, shared toilets, and dining areas. Meals are mainly Dal Bhat (rice, lentil soup, vegetables), noodles, soups, and Tibetan bread. Food becomes more expensive with altitude.

Cost of the Trek

The cost depends on group size, itinerary, and services. On average:

Permits: $100–$150

Guide and Porter: $25–$40 per day

Accommodation & Food: $25–$40 per day

Transport: $40–$60 (local bus/jeep)

Total estimated cost for a 14-day trek ranges between $1,000–$1,500 per person, including permits, food, accommodation, guide, porter, and transport.

Why Choose the Manaslu Circuit Trek?

Fewer trekkers compared to Everest and Annapurna routes

Authentic cultural experience

Remote trails with dramatic landscapes

High pass adventure without extreme technical climbing

Combination of natural beauty and cultural richness

Conclusion

The Manaslu Circuit Trek is ideal for trekkers who want a challenging Himalayan journey on less crowded trails. With its mix of high passes, remote villages, and breathtaking mountain views, it is one of the most rewarding treks in Nepal. Proper preparation, permits, and a licensed guide are essential for a safe and memorable experience.
