Are you planning to visit the Manaslu Circuit Trek? it’s a great place to go out and visit Tsum valley which is less explored but it’s worth it. you will get to see the breathtaking Himalayas, Tibetan culture, rivers, and greenery over the trek.

Manaslu Trek is rich in natural vegetation, high mountain, waterfall, and beautiful landscape which is the attraction of this trek. The Tsum Valley is one of the most secluded valleys in Nepal. Situated in the Manaslu region, high up near the Tibetan border, the whole area has a definite Tibetan Buddhist feel to it and is quite different from the surrounding countryside.

A restricted area until 2008, Tsum Valley is relatively un-trekked by hikers, yet the starting point is only 7 hours drive from Kathmandu.

Most of the 19 days trek at altitudes over 3,000m. With the altitude and with walking days stretching from 5 to 7 hours, a fairly good level of fitness is required for this trek.

The trail passes through pine forests, along raging rivers with cascading waterfalls and incredible suspension bridges, through fascinating villages and to several gompas, monasteries, mani walls, and stupas, not to mention Milarepa’s Cave.

On display are the mountain ranges of Himal Chuli (7,893m), Ganesh Himal (7,140m), Manaslu (8,163m), Churke Himal, and the Poshyop Glacier.

For trekkers who are fascinated by Tibetan culture as well as the mountains, the Manaslu circuit trek offers them the opportunity to witness Tibetan Buddhist people in their villages, monks, and nuns in their respective religious orders, and the spectacular views of the Himalayas in an almost pilgrimage like a trek into this hidden valley.
