Upper dolpo
Dolpo is a most remote and least
developed district in Nepal. Although a few anthropologists and geographers had
explored the region, the entire district was closed to trekkers until 1989 when
the southern part of Dolpo was opened to organised trekking groups, Shey is still
closed to foreigners. One story cites the reason for closure as the large-scale
theft of statues from monasteries several years ago. It is possible to visit Tibetan-style
“inner Dolpo” villages Tarap and at Phoksundo Lake, but most of the
southern part of Dolpo is a region of Hindu influence.

Upper
Mustang
Once inaccessible, The forbidden land of Mustang is now open
to trekkers, and offers an unforgettable experience beyond the Annapurna massif.
Mustang is north of the Annapurna circuit, beyond Jomsom, Kagbani and past the
sacred shrine of Muktinath and the Manang valley. Mustang is the one of the most
unspoiled and least traveled places in Nepal. Being under the rain shadow of the
Himalayas, the area receives scanty rainfall. This makes Mustang dry and arid...very
similar to the adjoining Tibetan plateau. To preserve the natural & social
environment, His majesty's Government has fixed the quota at 1000 heads per season.
This trip begins with a flight from Kathmandu to Jomsom via Pokhara. People wishing
to include the Annapurna region with their trek in to Mustang can start their
trek from Pokhara to Jomsom, passing along the bank of the Kaligandaki river towards
Kagbani. On the route, the trail passes the village of Tangbe, Samar, geling and
Tsarang which is considered to be one of the most interesting places of the trek.
In ancient Tsarang (about 800 years old ), a set of human hands, said to belong
to the site's master builder, remain according to legend the king cut the builder's
hands off to prevent him from constructing another place to rival it.We then arrive
at the walled capital, "Lo-Manthang", dominated by old Buddhist monasteries.
on the return journey, we visit Muktinath, one of the holiest of Hindu temples.
Then we follow the route to Jomsom from where we fly to Pokhara and back to Kathmandu.

SOME
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS BY OUR CUSTOMERS
Can I do trek?
Annapurna Jomsom
Muktinath Trek is suitable for any walker looking for something a little more
challenging and energetic. It does not require that you have any previous trekking
or mountaineering experience. Although the terrain is not difficult, some vigorous
hiking experience is useful. And It does not require any technical experience;
only that you be in good physical conditioning and be able to hike for 4-6 hours
over hilly terrain with a light day pack.
Do
I need 14 days holiday for Annapurna Jomsom Muktinath Trek?
It
would be good, if can allow 14 days holiday for Annapurna Jomsom Muktinath trek.
We do require 12 days for trekking and we need two more days an extra for arrival
in Nepal and departure from Nepal so altogether it requires minimum 14 days time
for Nepal.
However, if you would not allow 14 days time, we can design
an itinerary according to your desire and duration of your holiday. Please, let
us know.
When is the best season?
The best season for this trek is half of February to June and September to early
December.
Half of February to First week of June: From the half
of February until the first part of June temperatures are relatively warm, 10°
to 15° warmer than in the fall. Mornings are bright and clear with the air slowly
becoming hazier as the day progresses. The rhododendron forests in springtime
are spectacular, with color displays that are "Himalayan" in beauty.
June is warm and green with many fewer people - the sense of solitude is much
greater than other seasons.
September to half of December: September
to early December is an ideal time for the best mountain views. The days are typically
sunny and clear with moderate temperatures and the evenings are usually quite
cold.
Should I join with group?
It is not necessary; you have to join with group and follow our fixed departure
date. Private trip is departure everyday upon your request.

routes in the hills provide special meeting place for the trekkers from throughout
