Upper Mustang treks

The Upper Mustang Trek is an exceptional trekking route within the Annapurna trekking region. It offers incredible experiences of the Lo kingdom, showcasing the influence of Tibetan culture, lifestyle, monasteries, and breathtaking views nestled between the Annapurna ranges and the Tibetan plateau. Venturing into the lesser-explored region of Nepal, the Upper Mustang Trek provides a unique opportunity to immerse oneself in the mystical world of the ancient Buddhist kingdom of Mustang. Established by the warrior Ame Pal in 1380, the walled city of Lo Manthang and the entire Upper Mustang region have remained isolated from the outside world since the 14th century. Although limited access was granted to Nepalese citizens, it was only in 1992 that outsiders were allowed to enter. As a result, this territory has had the chance to gradually develop and preserve its distinct culture and traditions, which bear resemblance to those of Tibet. The Mustang Trek begins in Kathmandu and proceeds to Pokhara, followed by a short and picturesque flight to Jomsom. From there, the trek continues to Lomanthang, the capital of the Lo-Kingdom, allowing for exploration of the entire region. Finally, the journey concludes in Kathmandu, marking the end of the Upper Mustang Trek. **Highlight:** Experience the enchantment of the forbidden kingdom of Upper Mustang, which remained secluded for centuries until 1992. Immerse yourself in the vibrant Tibetan culture that continues to thrive among the locals.
