Manaslu Circuit Trek 12 Days: Larkya La Pass

12 days (approximately)
Offered in: English

The Manaslu Circuit Trek is a great choice if you want to see a quieter and more remote part of Nepal. Over 12 days, the trail takes you around Mount Manaslu through mountain villages, forests, river valleys and high Himalayan landscapes.

The trek gradually climbs through the Budhi Gandaki Valley before reaching Larkya La Pass. Along the way, you will pass traditional Gurung and Tibetan-influenced villages, Buddhist monasteries and small mountain communities where life is still closely connected to the trail.

We arrange the main trekking logistics for you, including the required permits, tea-house accommodation, local meals, ground transportation and a licensed English-speaking guide. The itinerary also includes time to adjust to the higher altitude before crossing Larkya La Pass.

This is a good option for travelers who want to spend more time in the mountains, experience local village life and explore one of Nepal's less crowded trekking regions.
