The Upper Mustang Trek is a captivating journey into one of Nepal’s most remote and culturally preserved regions. Often referred to as "The Last Forbidden Kingdom," Upper Mustang was once closed to foreigners, preserving its unique Tibetan culture and stunning landscapes. This trek offers an extraordinary opportunity to explore a region that remains largely untouched by modernity, featuring dramatic landscapes, ancient monasteries, and traditional Tibetan villages.
The trek begins with a flight from Kathmandu to Jomsom, a gateway to Mustang. From Jomsom, you’ll traverse through the arid, high-altitude desert landscapes of Mustang, characterized by striking rock formations, deep canyons, and a stark yet beautiful terrain. The route takes you through traditional Tibetan-style villages, where you can experience the unique culture and lifestyle of the local people.
The trek also includes a visit to the historic walled city of Lo Manthang, the capital of the Upper Mustang region. This ancient city is renowned for its well-preserved architecture, including the royal palace and several important monasteries. The trek provides a rich cultural experience with opportunities to explore these ancient sites, interact with local communities, and witness traditional Tibetan festivals and rituals.
