Frequently Asked Questions

The trail to Manaslu Circuit was opened for trekkers only in 1991. It is one the secluded treks of Nepal. Since then we have made a trip programme to Manasalu. Actually it takes 17 days but we have made 14 days plan (the shortened version of the trek) without leaving any important spots to be reached at. From lush tropical in lower lands to the scattered alpine up the altitude is our route to this trek. The biodiversity of this region offers you with immense pleasure. To stand near by the eighth highest mountain peak in the world, Mt. Manaslu (8,156 meters) is itself an achievement. Throughout the journey, the beautiful Himalayas keep your eyes open wide. The spectacular mountains embellish the place an ethereal beauty. Throughout the trek we shall cross several lush forests adding up to the enjoyment of the journey. The Rhododendron forests, Orchids, Magnolia flowers and the blooming diversity are certain to keep you company throughout the trail. As you trek along the beautiful villages you’ll learn about the significant culture of this region. You’ll have the opportunity to interact with the villagers and learn about their traditions, norms and practices. If you have a limited time and wish to enjoy the breath taking Mt Manaslu close up view, this is the best trek.

The trail to Manaslu Circuit was opened for trekkers only in 1991. Though it is not sucha new route, you move to the unexplored circuit and the spots on the way. That is why the circuit is called as a secluded trek. The trails are mapped in quite a strenuous geography which calls for an adventurous experience right away. As you continue your journey varieties of vegetation will greet you on the way with the biodiversity of the region. Along with the eighth highest mountain in the world, Mt. Manaslu (8,156 meter, you get chance to watch the Shringi Himal, Himlung, Cheo Peak, Gyagi Kung, Kang Koru, and Annapurna II. The sight of these mountains is fantastic part of the journey. Moreover, the experience of residing in the villages during the overnight stayt is another lively experience. The old villages of Namrung, Samagaun and Lo Gaun among many are quaint and cultural. The Gurungs, Rais and Magars, the kind people with rich in culture and traditions, provide the treatment which you never forget in your life.

It is our humble request to trek with at least with two people. This law is imposed considering the restricted nature of the trekking route. The second important information is that, a copy of passport and photograph must be submitted to the respective tour operator beforehand.

MC Trek is a moderate level trek, suitable for anyone. Either you’re inexperience or professional, this trek is appropriate. Anyone with an average fitness can complete this trek. As this is a lengthy trek we want your physical and mental health to be at its best. Our advice is to do regular exercises and preparations before the trek. We recommend stamina building exercises like running and swimming. This allows your body to adapt and sustain the energy level keeping your health in check. Our professional guides will guide the trek with utmost caution and safety. You will trek in a slow and steady pace and taking lots of breaks. The key is to trek slow, acclimatize and drink plenty of liquids during the trek.

The best trekking experience depends on the time of the year. MC Trek can be done in all seasons with professional guides. But spring season (March to May in Nepal) and autumn seasons (September to November in Nepal) are of course the best seasons for the trek. In spring, the moderate and dry climate makes trekking comfortable. The flourishing bio diversity makes the trails vibrant and beautiful. Autumn season provides better mountain views, less humidity and less perspiration. The clear blue skies bring about crisp views of the mountains. But the Himalayas won’t disappoint in any season. We provide the trekkers with best facilities throughout the year. All arrangements, accommodation to meals, transportation to guidance are provided. If you’re looking forward to an ecstatic Himalaya adventure, then MCT is the best.
