Manaslu Tsum Valley Trekking-
Manaslu Tsum Valley Trekking is a delightful adventure filled with ancient art, culture, and lifestyle of the Tibetan Buddhist culture of the quaint Tsum Valley Trekking in the Manaslu Region Trekking of Nepal. This is an unspoiled Manaslu Trekking Route as Trekking in Manaslu Area was restricted until the year 1090s. This trek does not only provide an opportunity to Explore Manaslu Valley’s splendid biodiversity and wilderness but also allows observing the Buddhist culture and heritage.
The journey starts with a scenic drive to Soti Khola from where the trek begins. The trail leads you on off the beaten trails and away from the mainstream Manaslu Trekking Routes. You trek in the complete wilderness around the remote and beautiful villages surrounded by the magnificent Manaslu Mountain Chain like Ganesh Himal (7422 m), Himal Chuli (7893 m), Himlung Himal (7126 m), Cheo Himal (6820 m), and Manaslu Himal (8163m). On the way, you pass through the beautiful rhododendron and pine forests and cross many bridges. The highest point on this trek route is the Larkya La Pass (5160 m), which you cross after exploring the Tsum Valley Classic Trekking. There are many fantastic sites to visit during this adventure, but the two places that stand out are Rachen Gompa and Mu Gompa. These two monasteries are the most sacred monasteries in the Tsum Valley Region Trek and provide valuable insight on the cultural practices followed in the area. Along with breathtaking sceneries and incredible biodiversity, you also get to observe the Tibetan culture and way of life. This is a difficult trek with many steep climbs and long walking days, so you need to be physically fit and have past trekking experience for this trek. The best seasons for Tsum Valley Larkya Pass Trekking are from March to May and September to November.

FAQ
When you are up in the mountains in Nepal, we would suggest you to be ready for anything. Weather forecasts for Lukla are never correct and different sources will give you different information. If it is a really bad day in terms of weather, the airlines will themselves cancel the flight and you might have to wait till the weather clears. Yes, flying in high altitude is never easy, even on a clear sunny day, the plane might face turbulence because of the wind blowing from the mountains. But overall the flight to Lukla is very exciting and it’s an experience that you will never forget.
