Trip Overview
-
Destination Nepal, Mustang Region,
-
Duration 14 Days
-
Altitude 3810m
Mustang is one of Nepal’s lesser-traveled regions, a stark and barren landscape of windswept plains and sandstone pillars. A land shrouded in mystery, home to the ancient kingdom of Lo, the Tibetan-Buddhist culture in this region has remained largely untouched by the outside world. Bordering the Tibetan Plateau in Nepal’s rain shadow area, the terrain in this region is in stark contrast to the lush jungles and alpine foothills of Nepal’s interior – a forbidding desert landscape of earth tones and eroded rock formations, of desolate vistas echoing with howling wind. The trail begins at the Medieval city of Kagbeni, from where our journey will take us through a haunting landscape punctuated by truly unique settlements to the ancient walled capital city of Lo Manthang. This trip offer visits to authentic Tibetan villages – unspoiled and utterly unique in their remoteness – where cave-dwelling people and amazing examples of ancient Tibetan arts can be found. Trekking in Mustang is a chance to view unspoiled Tibetan culture in a landscape that is truly like no other.
