Overview

The Manaslu Tsum Valley Trek lets you fully appreciate and immerse yourself in Mount Manaslu's beauty- the world's fifth-highest mountain. Walk on trails that go through many hidden villages and dainty settlements and observe the unique culture and traditions of the people nearby. The beautiful environments of the trek let you be lost in the magical natural setting like never before. The mystical forests and emerald woodlands make for a perfect respite away from the monotonous lifestyle in the cities. The natural landscape of the Manaslu region is unprecedented and presents a beautiful array of natural and traditional blends.

The hidden gem of the region, the Tsum Valley, is a beautiful destination that is abundant in the customs of the people and is shrouded in a pretty canopy of emerald patina. The glittering snow of the mountains and the ivory peaks along the trails greatly enhance the trekking journey. The terrain encompasses lots of ups and downs along with difficult trekking paths. Because of this, it usually receives fewer travelers in this part of the region than others, but that only makes it all the more appealing to undergo. The awe-inspiring Tsum Valley will surely leave you in a trance because of its beauty and magnificence. It is a recently opened trekking trail and has quickly gotten lots of attention from travelers from all over because of its best elements and aspects. The simple accommodation facilities, authentic Nepali customs and traditions, hospitality, and warmth make for a joyous trekking journey.

The Manaslu Tsum Valley Trek is a delightful trekking package that lets you walk along the Nepal-Tibet border. The prepossessing area around the border is rich in diverse cultures of ethnic people, and you can look at many small and large Gumbas and chortens along the trail. The prayer flags draped along the spires of the monasteries tend to sway gently in the wind, making the journey a memorable event. The serene environments along the trail are beautiful respites. The dense forests and emerald woodlands along the trek are fascinating and are home to many endangered species of rare flora and fauna. The region also has a complete ban on hunting, fishing, and animal slaughtering. While on the trekking trail, you can sometimes catch glimpses of animals like the elusive Himalayan Thar and the Blue Sheep. Stroll along the exuberant flow of the Budhi Gandaki River, the jovial Machha Khola, and the Soti Khola as you walk on paths ornamented beautifully with a natural hue. The views of mountain peaks like the Manaslu peak, Ganesh Himal, Sringi Himal, and Hiunchuli along the trek are surreal.

One of the significant culminations of the Manaslu Tsum Valley Trek is Larkya La Pass, which has an altitude of 5,106 meters. It is the highest point of the trek. From the pass, you can get mesmerizing views of cerulean peaks like the Cheo Himal, Kang Guru Peak, the Himlung Himal, and rare views of the Annapurna massif. Enjoy the cultural vibrancy that is found on the trails. The traditional aspect of the trek is distinctive to the Tsum Valley and cannot be found anywhere else. Visit the Mu Gompa, the holy Ranchen Gompa, and the Nunnery Temple, where you can get insights into the Tibetan Buddhist lifestyle and culture. The perseverance of the people's culture and their rituals has evaded time and modernization, and as you witness these phenomena, it feels like you have been transported back in time.

We also have alternate packages for you for the Manaslu region. Our Manaslu Circuit Trek takes you excursing through the far-off valleys of the region. Likewise, the 13 Days Tsum Valley Trek is another option for a shorter version highlighting the valley and its aspects similarly. Join our Manaslu Tsum Valley Trek to experience an incredible adventure in a remote yet all-encompassing hiking journey! Let us accompany you on this fantastic adventure!

    Gorgeous Views!

    Excellent trekking experience with Escape Himalaya to Kala Patthar! Everything went seamlessly, and my guide ensured we were safe and comfortable at all times, even in the high altitude. Will definitely choose EH again when I am back in Nepal for more hiking! The country is so beautiful and just has so much to offer!

    Amazing Manaslu Circuit with Phurba & Ram

    Just back from a fantastic 2 week trek around the Manaslu Circuit including Larke Pass (5100m). The weather was perfect and the views were outstanding!!

    Our guide Phurba Sherpa was excellent. Super knowledgeable and helpful at all times and always made sure we had a fantastic trip.

    Our porter, Ram Badhadur Magar was also a rockstar. He was super professional and always arrived before us every day. He was also super friendly and helpful too.

    Thanks to Phurba, Ram for always smiling and for a fantastic trip. Would highly recommend them to anyone interested in trekking in Nepal

    Everest base camp trek - Mar-Apr 2024

    My 60 year old pals set out in hope on this adventure. In late March. We had our guide Raj Kumar and two porterd Janak and Ramesh. All three were stars. We changed our schedule - no problem. I would not have made it without Raj. I cannot thank him enough. Janak often took my back pack on steep climbs where I was struggling. This is a truly majestic and spiritual trek and I would encourage using Escape Himalaya and request this team of guide and porters if you want to give yourself the best chance of finishing and making best use of your time.
