12 DAYS MANASLU CIRCUIT TREK
12 DAYS MANASLU CIRCUIT TREK
Untouched wilderness trek and a full-on adventure to a spectacular region with the main attraction, the iconic Mount Manaslu (The Spirit Mountain).
This trek has everything you would wish for and more in just 12 days: incredible mountain views, astounding natural beauty, and rich in Tibetan culture. You will trek through lush farmland and stunning rhododendron forests and across rugged mountain trails. This off the beaten path trek means isolation and time to reflect on an amazing landscape that takes your breath away. This trek, as the name suggests, circles the world’s 8th highest mountain - Mt. Manaslu (8163m) and has recently become as popular as the other well-known trails, such as Everest, Annapurna & Langtang. Manaslu comes from the Sanskrit word manasa, meaning "intellect" or "soul".
The Manaslu Circuit Trek offers glimpses of wildlife, wildflowers, pine, cedar, birch, and juniper forests and of course stunning panoramic views of towering snow-covered peaks. You will get an understanding of how different cultural ethnic groups in the region exist and how Buddhism plays a major role in their lives. You will have stunning views of Himal (6983m), Annapurna (8091), Dhaulagiri (8167m), Himalchuli (7893m), and Yangra Peak (7422m) in the Ganesh Himal sub-range.
This is a trek to a region where time has had little influence on the lives of the villagers. Nepalese Himalayan, so trek to Manaslu will be a time-travel understanding.
Our journey begins with an 8 to 9-hour drive from Kathmandu to Soti Khola and then on to Khola Bensi. The trail takes us over the Budhi Gandaki River to Philim and Ghap villages. Along the trail, we will see native wildlife, such as Langur monkeys and of course the ever-present hardy Yak that carries goods from the Tibetan Plateau to Nepal. Tibetan influence is everywhere with prayer flags flapping in the breeze, Mani stones piled alongside the trail and Tibetan monasteries. We continue on the trail passing Lho Village and further on the trail Samagaun, Samdo, Dharamsala, Bhimthang, Dharapani, and finally Besisahar where we leave and head back to Kathmandu.
In order to minimize altitude sickness, we will stop at Samagaun to acclimatize before heading to higher altitudes. A side trek to Manaslu Base camp (4500m) or Birendra Lake will also assist us to acclimatize. Another interesting trail takes us to Larkya La Pass (5160m) where we have stunning views of Mt. Manaslu and the Larkya Glacier. From Larkya La Pass there are stunning panoramic views of soaring snow-covered peaks, such as Himlung Himal and Kang Guna.
Around the Manaslu circuit trek gives you an insight into both Buddhist and Hindu cultures and how they live in these remote and isolated regions and their everyday lifestyles.

ITINERARY
Day 1 : Arrival in Kathmandu & Hotel Transfer.
Your journey begins in the heart of Nepal as you land at Tribhuvan International Airport, where a representative warmly welcomes you with traditional hospitality. After a comfortable transfer to your hotel, take some time to relax or wander through the vibrant streets of Thamel, known for its colorful markets and cultural charm. In the evening, a trekking briefing is held to review your route, permits, gear, and safety guidelines. This first night in Kathmandu helps you settle comfortably before the adventure ahead.
Day 2 : Drive from Kathmandu to Machha Khola (900m/2,952ft) — 7–8 hrs.
Leaving Kathmandu behind, you travel through scenic countryside marked by terraced farms, rolling green hills, and riverside views. The road gradually follows the Budhi Gandaki River, passing local villages and rural landscapes that offer a glimpse of Nepali life away from the city. As you approach Machha Khola, the valley narrows and the surroundings become lush, marking your first encounter with the natural beauty of the Manaslu region. Overnight in this peaceful riverside settlement.
Day 3 : Trek from Machha Khola to Jagat (1,340m/4,395ft) — 6–7 hrs.
This morning, you begin your trek along a winding trail that follows the river. Wooden bridges, cliffsides, and dense sub-tropical forests accompany you for much of the day. Passing Tatopani’s natural hot springs, you witness steam rising from the rocky edges before continuing upward. The path occasionally narrows into dramatic gorges and gentle climbs before opening up toward Jagat, a beautifully paved stone village that officially marks the beginning of the restricted Manaslu Conservation Area.
Day 4 : Trek from Jagat to Deng (2,095m/6,871ft) — 6–7 hrs.
Today’s trail showcases both nature and culture. After leaving Jagat, you cross terraced hillsides and pass friendly local communities, with children often greeting trekkers along the way. The route weaves through Philim, a large and culturally rich village with Buddhist influences and vibrant prayer flags. As you go deeper into the valley, steep cliffs rise on both sides, and waterfalls cascade into the river below. Your day ends in Deng, a small settlement that introduces you to the Tibetan-style architecture common at higher altitudes.
Day 5 : Trek from Deng to Namrung (2,900m/9,512ft) — 5–6 hrs.
After passing through forests of fir and pine, the trail gains steady elevation. Mani walls, prayer stones, and carefully carved inscriptions guide your way as you approach Namrung, a scenic village known for its panoramic sunrise views. The higher you climb, the more dramatic the Himalayan peaks become. Namrung provides warm hospitality and offers your first clear perspectives of Manaslu, Himal Chuli, and surrounding giants that dominate the skyline.
Day 6 : Trek from Namrung to Samagaun (3,500m/11,480ft) — 5–7 hrs.
One of the most visually stunning days of the trek. Passing through the charming villages of Lho and Shyala, you walk among expansive fields, ancient monasteries, and sweeping mountain vistas. The terrain gradually opens into the vast glacial valley of Samagaun, one of the region’s largest and most culturally rich settlements. Here, yaks graze in open fields and prayer flags flutter in the high-altitude breeze. Overnight in this breathtaking Himalayan village.
Day 7 : Acclimatization Day in Samagaun.
A well-deserved rest day. To help your body adjust to the altitude, you can embark on an optional hike:
Pungen Gompa: A serene monastery set against the majestic south face of Manaslu, offering panoramic glacier views.
Manaslu Base Camp: A more demanding adventure that rewards you with close-up sights of icefalls and towering ridges.
After exploring, return to Samagaun to enjoy its peaceful environment and traditional Tibetan culture.
Day 8 : Trek from Samagaon to Dharamsala (4,460m) — 5–6 hrs.
Today, the path gently climbs through windswept pastures and glacial plains. The scenery becomes stark and rugged, reflecting the increasing altitude. As you approach Dharamsala (Larke Phedi), the last lodge before crossing Larkya La Pass, the mountains draw closer, and the air turns crisp. This high camp is basic but atmospheric, surrounded by rocky cliffs and snow-covered ridges. Early rest is recommended as you prepare for the highest and most challenging day of the adventure.
Day 9 : Trek from Dharamsala to Bimthang (3,720m) via Larkya La Pass (5,106m) — 8–9 hrs.
A truly unforgettable day. Beginning before sunrise, you make your way across cold alpine slopes toward Larkya La Pass, the highest point of the trek. As you ascend, the horizon opens to reveal majestic views of Himlung Himal, Cheo Himal, Kang Guru, and the distant Annapurna range. Reaching the pass is a moment of triumph—colorful prayer flags, wild peaks, and the sense of being on top of the world.
The descent toward Bimthang is long but incredibly scenic, passing through glacial terrain, rocky ridges, and eventually arriving in a beautiful valley surrounded by high Himalayan walls.
Day 10 : Trek from Bimthang to Dharapani (1,860m) — 6–7 hrs.
Descending from the high alpine zone, you reenter lush forests of rhododendron and oak. Crystal-clear streams, wooden bridges, and vibrant birdlife accompany you along the trail. You pass through charming villages like Goa and Tilije, eventually reaching Dharapani, a lively hub that also serves as a gateway to the Annapurna trekking routes. A warm lodge and a well-earned meal await you.
Day 11 : Drive from Dharapani – Besisahar to Kathmandu (1,400m) — 8–9 hrs.
Your overland journey begins with a scenic jeep ride from Dharapani to Besisahar, passing farms, waterfalls, and steep hillside settlements. From Besisahar, a Public Bus vehicle takes you back to Kathmandu, where you can enjoy the city’s energy once again.
Day 12 : Final Departure from Kathmandu.
With memories of soaring peaks, pristine valleys, and unforgettable Himalayan hospitality, you are transferred to the international airport for your journey home. The adventure may end here, but the spirit of the mountains stays with you forever.

GOOD TO KNOW
Accommodation
You will be accommodated in 3-star hotels in Kathmandu. During the trek, we will be staying at lodges/ teahouses. You may find comfortable and better quality teahouses at lower altitudes. It should be noted that at higher elevations the quality of accommodation may not be as good, with more basic rooms with the bare necessities.
Meals during the trek
In Kathmandu, your hotel includes breakfast, whereas all meals (breakfast, lunch, and dinner) will be provided during the trek. A staple food in the mountainous regions is potatoes, oats, buckwheat, Sherpa stew and Tibetan bread. Sherpa’s’ started farming potatoes when the first seeds were introduced to the region in the early 90s. There is a limited choice of food at higher elevations and except many potato dishes. Potatoes are high in carbohydrates – an excellent source of energy needed at high altitudes.
Transportation
We use a private car for sightseeing and for the airport to hotel pick and drop off. We take the bus from Besisahar to Kathmandu. In the past Arughat used to be the starting point of the trek but nowadays, due to better road conditions we can travel by bus direct to the Soti Khola. We will travel along secondary (rough) roads all the way to Soti Khola by local bus and from Dharapani to Besisahar we will be traveling by private jeep
Guide and Porter on the trek
We provide you trained & certified trekking guides and porters who will take care of all logistics and a porter for every two trekkers who will each carry about 20 kg (10 kg for each trekker). An experienced guide and porter will be the difference between success and failure. They will also save you from taking unnecessary risks during poor weather conditions.
Physical fitness
Some days can be challenging where you often have to walk 6-8 hours a day. You don’t need past experience of hiking or trekking but if you have done any kind of trekking activities then it is always a plus! We have met people from all walks of life, shapes, and sizes who have completed the trek. The only difficult part is when altitude sickness strikes and the effect that it can have on your body. Before leaving for Nepal it is good if you can prepare yourself physically by increasing your stamina and oxygen intake.
