Tsum valley Trek - 17 Days

Introduce with guide and the program of your forthcoming adventure. To seal a successful meeting, we can enjoy a beverage of your choice, as Nepali costume dictates.

This day is also your last chance to make the necessary preparations for your trek and spend the way you wish.

Kathmandu to Arughat (600m) by public bus (7/8hrs). Then we either start the trek from Arughat or we switch to a different local bus to Soti khola(700m), depending on the amount of time and what your wish is. Soti khola has situated at the bank of the Budhi Gandaki river which starts from Larke La.

After breakfast, the way will lead us through a beautiful jungle and massive waterfalls in the surroundings.The meaning of Machhakhola is fish river.

The trail will lead us through the banks of the Budhi Gandaki river to Khorlabensi. Once we continue from Khorlabensi then we will arrive at Tatopani(Tatopani meaning hot water). Tatopani is another interesting place where you can experience the natural running hot water. Probably we might have lunch at Dovan before we arrive at Jagat for the overnight. Jagat is a big town and the restricted area will start from here. It will offer a neat and clean stone paved trail, mani walls, MCAP office (Manaslu Conservation Area Project), Siringi Himal etc.

Today is the day specially we separate from Manaslu circuit and begin Tsum valley which is known as the hidden valley. Tsum valley is extremely popular in authentic Tibetan culture and religion. We can also expect to have amazing views of Sringi Himal, waterfalls, mani walls, water driven mills, Chorten etc. during the day. (2260m, 6-7hrs).

After having breakfast, the trail will lead us through the pine, bamboo and rhododendron-forests. There are not any local settlement and tea houses in between. So we will have lunch and overnight at same place in Chumling. It will offer good potential of an amazing view of Ganesh Himal (2386m, 4-5hrs).

This is another beautiful day in term of cultural and scenic views. Chhokang Paro is the biggest villages of Tsum valley and the landscape will completely change from today. The most worthy part of Tsum valley will begin from today. We will experience the unspoiled Tibetan community and culture, maniwalls and a view of the astonishing Himalayan range (3031m, 4-5hrs).

This day is the highlight of the Tsum Valley adventure. We can explore and experience graceful Himalaya vistas, Buddhist monastery, Nunnery, mani walls, Chortens, Stupas,entrance & exit gates in every town, Milarepa Cave, Buddhist communities and ceremonies in Mu Gumpa – and even more. This is a great opportunity to stay overnight in the monastery and experience something very different from the tea houses (3700m,6-7hrs).

I am pretty much sure when we talk about Tibet border it might be something interesting. This is the one of the best opportunity to explore the unique landscape and open border in between Nepal and autonomous Tibet.(5093m, 8-9hrs)

This is another great opportunity to stay overnight in Monastery, have a live kitchen, enjoy with local meal and exchange the experience with monks/nun.(3200m, 6-7hrs)

This is one of the most crucial day of the trip in term of views and adventure journey. You will have beautiful Jungle walk and Ganesh Himal Base Camp will offer breath taking vistas of Himalaya.(4900m, 8hrs)

We will take you upper route(alternative trail) via Ripchet which will offer extremely beautiful village and peace on the way to Lokpa.(6-7hrs)
