Lying at the edge of one of the most secluded Himalayan valleys in the central-western Nepal Himalaya’s Kali Gandaki valley 40 miles east of Annapurna, Manaslu is the world’s eighth highest mountain. Mount Manaslu altitude reaches to a lofty 8,163m (26,781ft) with six established routes to reach the summit, of which the south face is the toughest in the climbing history. Spending a night at the Manaslu base camp will be a wonderful experience for you in Nepal.
Manaslu summit offers an alternative to Cho Oyu for those who wish to climb a more varied and challenging 8,000er. Manaslu’s long ridges and valley glaciers provide feasible approaches from all directions on various Manaslu climbing routes culminating in a peak that towers steeply above its surrounding landscape.

All Meals on full board basis will be served during trekking whereas only breakfast will be served in Kathmandu. During trekking, three meals a day will be served from the tea house or lodge menus or local homes. Each day's dinner and breakfast are taken in the same place that we stay the night. Lunch will be taken in a tea shop on the way to the destination. Please know that the Manaslu region does not have a well-established tourist infrastructure as in the Annapurna or Everest region (and this is the main attraction of this region). Therefore, a variety of foods will not be available or possible. We mainly eat Tibetan bread, dal bhat, tsampa porridge and other simple local foods. During climbing session, hygienic freshly cooked food will be provided cooked by our very own chef Himalayan Glacier suggests that we be ready for a remote experience.
