Manaslu Circuit Trek 

The Manaslu Circuit Trek is one of Nepal’s most stunning and remote trekking routes. It takes you around Manaslu, the eighth-highest mountain in the world —  you witness a unique blend of cascading rivers, precipitous trails, subtropical forests, and breathtaking mountain scenery.

The trek begins at Machha Khola and the trail follows the Budhi Gandaki River, crossing several suspension bridges. As you trek higher, the scenery changes, and you get closer to the majestic Manaslu (8,163 meters / 26,781 feet). The highest point of the trek is Larkya La Pass (5,106 meters / 16,752 feet), where you’ll enjoy breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding peaks.

Along the way, you pass through traditional villages like Namrung, Sama Gaon, and Samdo. These villages are home to Gurung, Tamang, and Tibetan communities, where you can experience their culture.

The trek circles Manaslu and includes options for side trips, such as visiting Manaslu Base Camp or exploring the Tsum Valley, a recently opened and magical region. The trek concludes with a descent into the Marsyangdi Valley. You can also choose to take the upper Manaslu route, which is less traveled and offers even more beautiful views.

Book your Manaslu circuit trek — with a well-planned 17 days itinerary — from Nepal Trekking Experts  to experience a unique mix of adventure, culture, and natural beauty.

Manaslu Circuit Trek Difficulty

The Manaslu Circuit Trek is quite challenging and difficult, and is suitable for trekkers with a good fitness level. While it does not involve technical climbing, the trail follows rugged terrain, steep ascents, and high altitudes.

Trekking at high elevations, such as the Larkya La Pass at 5,106 meters (16,752 feet), can be physically demanding due to thinning air and the risk of altitude sickness. You must acclimatize properly to ensure your body adjusts to the altitude gradually.

The trekking through Manaslu circuit includes several days of long, strenuous hiking through forests, across rivers, and on uneven paths. The remote route has limited access to medical facilities. Therefore, it requires mental determination and physical preparation — regular cardio and may help you.

The trek is tough but manageable with the right fitness, preparation, and attitude. If you are in good physical condition and have some trekking experience, the Manaslu circuit trek will definitely be rewarding and unforgettable.

Best Time for Manaslu Circuit Trekking

The best time to trek the Manaslu circuit is during the Spring (March to May) and Autumn (September to November) seasons.

  • Spring (March to May):
    Spring is one of the most popular times for trekking in Nepal. The weather is relatively mild, and the trails are clear of snow. You can enjoy vibrant rhododendron blooms and stunning views of the surrounding peaks. The temperatures are moderate, making it easier to hike.

  • Autumn (September to November):
    Autumn is ideal for crossing the high passes like Larkya La, as the trail is dry, and snow accumulation is minimal. The weather is generally stable — with crisp air and clear skies — and offers excellent visibility of the Himalayas.

Manaslu Circuit Trek Permit Costs

The Manaslu circuit trek lies within the Manaslu Conservation Area Project (MCAP), a protected area that showcases Nepal’s natural, cultural, and historical beauty.

The government of Nepal has declared it a restricted zone, and trekkers are required to obtain Manaslu Restricted Area Permit (MRAP), Manaslu Conservation Area Permit (MCAP) and Annapurna Conservation Area Permit (ACAP) to access the region.

  1. Manaslu Restricted Area Permit (MRAP)

    • A minimum of two trekkers and a licensed guide are required.

Useful Information

Tips for a successful Manaslu Circuit Trek:

  • Focus on cardio, gym workouts, trail running, or trekking with a backpack.

  • Select a local guide with deep knowledge, good English skills, and strong decision-making abilities.

  • Avoid rushing; pace yourself to reduce fatigue.

  • Drink 3–4 liters of water daily to prevent dehydration.

  • Climb to a higher altitude during the day but descend for sleeping.

  • Do not rush your itinerary.

  • Eat nutritious food to fuel your body.

  • Bring quality clothing, footwear, and equipment suitable for high-altitude trekking.

  • Reduce health risks and altitude complications by staying clear of these substances.

  • Let a porter carry your heavier load so you can enjoy the scenery.

  • Trek between March–May or September–November for better weather.

  • Be prepared for minor injuries or altitude-related issues.

Transportation

Nepal Trekking Experts provides bus transportation from Kathmandu (Gongabu Bus Park) to Machhakhola, which takes about 9–10 hours. From Dharapani to Besisahar, you will travel by local jeep for 4–5 hours, then switch to another bus or van to reach Kathmandu (6–7 hours).

The local bus can be crowded and may make frequent stops, causing longer travel times. If you prefer a more comfortable and faster option, we can arrange private transportation on request. A private jeep to Machhakhola costs USD 200, and from Dharapani to Kathmandu costs USD 250.

Meals During the Manaslu Circuit Trek

The Manaslu Region is remote, so meals along the Manaslu circuit route often consist of simple but hearty dishes. Local tea houses usually have a similar menu, offering both Nepali and Western items. Dal Bhat (rice, vegetable curry, lentil soup, and pickle) is a popular choice and includes free refills.

Other common dishes during Manaslu circuit trek include fried rice, dumplings (momos), thukpa, various potato preparations, and spring rolls. You may also find pasta, pizza, porridge, chapati, Tibetan bread, and eggs cooked in different styles.

For a unique local flavor, yak cheese or a cup of butter tea are famous in the Manaslu region. Beverage options range from black tea, ginger tea, lemon tea, and milk tea to soft drinks and a few alcoholic drinks.

Accommodation During the Manaslu Circuit Trek

Accommodation during your trek to Manaslu circuit is more basic than in popular areas like Annapurna, Everest, or Langtang. Tea houses provide simple rooms, typically with two beds in each room and shared toilets or bathrooms. Electricity is limited, often powered by solar energy, and hot showers are not always available. In higher areas, rooms can be quite rustic, so a warm sleeping bag is recommended. If you want a hot shower, be prepared to pay a small fee (around USD 3–4, depending on altitude).

Telephone, Internet, and Battery Charging

  • Telephone Availability
    Most villages now have mobile reception. The major SIM card providers in Nepal are NCELL and Nepal Telecom. Nepal Telecom usually provides better coverage in the Manaslu Region.

  • Internet Availability
    You may find internet service in certain villages and tea houses such as Philim, Namrung, Lho, Samagaon, Samdo, Bhimthang, and Dharapani. However, the connection may be unreliable due to weather conditions and technical limitations.

    In villages with telephone networks, you can also purchase data packs to access the internet on your mobile device.

  • Battery Charging
    Most tea houses have electricity or solar power for charging devices, but they usually charge a small fee (around USD 2–3). Carrying a power bank or a solar-powered charger is recommended, especially if you need consistent access to power throughout the trek.

Porter Services

Our Manaslu circuit trek package does not include a porter, but we can arrange one if you wish. Usually, one porter carries up to 20 kilograms for two trekkers. A porter can reduce the load you carry and make it easier for you to navigate the high-altitude and rugged trails. You must hire a porter to focus on the scenery and have a more comfortable trek.

Make sure it covers the maximum elevation you plan to reach, since many companies have altitude limits. Helicopter evacuations are costly, so confirm your policy will handle any emergency without placing a financial burden on you.

In Nepal, medical facilities often require upfront payment or pre-approval from your insurer. Look for a policy that pays these bills directly rather than reimbursing you later.

Nepalese Currency and the Payment:

Nepal uses the Nepalese rupee (NPR). You can easily exchange major currencies like USD, AUD, GBP, CAD, SGD, and EUR in Kathmandu or Pokhara.

A charge of USD 4 is usually applied per transaction, on top of which your bank may also apply a fee of its own.

ATMs are common in Kathmandu and Pokhara, especially in Thamel. Some ATMs have a daily withdrawal limit of NPR 10,000, while others allow up to NPR 35,000. A fee of about USD 4 often applies per transaction, and your own bank may charge an additional fee.

On-Arrival Visa in Nepal

You can obtain a Nepal visa on arrival at Tribhuvan International Airport in Kathmandu or at major land-border checkpoints. You may also apply at a Nepalese Embassy or Consulate in your home country before departure.

If you plan to get your visa on arrival, bring cash in one of these currencies:

  • US Dollar
  • Euro
  • Swiss Franc
  • Pound Sterling
  • Australian Dollar
  • Canadian Dollar
  • Hong Kong Dollar
  • Singapore Dollar
  • Japanese Yen

Credit card payments are also available.

      Best time ever

      4 friends and I went in the Manaslu circut trek witha couple of variations including the upper trek and Tsum Valley. We had a great time in Nepal and the Himalayas. It was the 1st time in Nepal for us and we didn't know what to expect. Nepal trekking experts were very helpfull and answered all our questions and helped us to create an unique experience. Our guide Resham was amazing and really did everything he could to make our trip go smooth. We will surelly come back.

      manaslu circuit, remarkable experience

      an experience of a lifetime. we were extremely fortunate to be allocated the very experienced guide called Mr. Lok.
      He is very familiar with the route and area and our original itinerary of three weeks was adjusted from time to time and through his advice, we were able to visit some amazing places with remarkable views. this trek can be done in as little as 11 days by brave and athletic people. we took nearly 3 weeks and this allowed proper acclimatisation and the opportunity to spend two nights at a few places which allowed for some fatigue recovery as well as viewing all the side day-trips which were the highlights. 1. Serang Gompa. 2. Pungyen Gompa 3. Manaslu base camp 4. scenic route day trip at Samdo 5. Ponkar lake at Bhimtang.
      we found the trek reasonably strenuous and would strongly recommend you are hiking fit. we noticed quite a number of hikers walking back who struggled with the altitude, the cold and general fatigue.
      thank you Mr. Lok for providing us with the most amazing experience. would love to trek with you again in the future
