Upper Mustang Trek 15 Days

Upper Mustang Trek
Upper Mustang's charm is beyond comprehension, with its rocky highland, Small River, golden terrain, and stunning Himalayan range dropping surrounding the valley. Except for a few exceptions, the kingdom remained restricted to foreigners until 1992. Upper Mustang Trek provides amazing vistas and colorful barren hills with intriguing mythology in the ancient kingdom of Lo Manthang – Nepal's trans-Himalayan town.

Geographically, Upper Mustang is the ideal location for viewing the Tibetan plateau and culture; so, visiting Upper Mustang feels like visiting Tibet. The dangerous routes bent by hand into sheer cliffs, unspoiled landscape, stunning vistas of whitewashed communities, snow-capped summits, and hinterland endowed with deep gorges, and fantastic 16th-century monasteries are the hikes' main features.
