Trip Overview
Book an expertly planned, all-inclusive, and professionally guided 14-day Manaslu Circuit Trek Package in Nepal with Everest Thrill.
The Manaslu Circuit Trek is one of Nepal's most rewarding and less-crowded Himalayan adventures. Designed for trekkers seeking authentic mountain experiences beyond the busy Everest and Annapurna regions, this journey combines dramatic landscapes, rich cultural encounters, and the thrilling crossing of Larke Pass (5,106m).
Named after Mount Manaslu (8,163m), the world's eighth-highest mountain, the trek takes you deep into a restricted Himalayan region where traditional Tibetan-influenced villages, ancient monasteries, and untouched valleys remain largely unchanged by modern tourism.
The trek begins with a scenic drive to the Manaslu region and follows the Budhi Gandaki River through remote mountain settlements, dense forests, suspension bridges, and high alpine terrain. Crossing the spectacular Larke Pass before descending toward Besisahar creates one of the most complete trekking circuits in Nepal.
