First stop from Thorung pass in Muktinath, the temple of the Lord of Salvation, holy for both Hindus and Buddhists.


Mustang (Kingdom of Lo) 15 days:
Ever since this previously forbidden mountain kingdom was opened for tourist in 1991, the deluge of tourist flocking there has not stopped, despite the US$700 special permit required to enter and spend ten days there, an additional fee US$70 per day is levied.


Muktinath--10 days-- (per person per Day),US$70

This trek is a reverse of the latter part of the Annapurna Circuit. The trek starts from Pokhara and passing through some of the best mountain viewing spots with plenty of Rhododendron blossom in February- March which is the best trekking season in Nepal.

This leads to the Annapurna South Force base camp. The trek begins in Pokhara, passing through rice terraces to reach high mountain glaciers in a matter of days.

The Everest Region--22 days-- (per person per Day),US$70
This trek passes through Sherpa country all the way to the Everest Base Camp following the footsteps of Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay Sherpa. All trekkers do routinely reach of Everest possible without actually doing any actual climbing.

The Langtan region-- 16 days--(per person per Day),US$40
The trek up the langtan valley is another of those great short treks that can be done easily in 10 to 16 days.
