Essential information about this amazing adventure
The Mustang Trek is a remarkable journey into one of Nepal’s most culturally preserved regions. Nestled beyond the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri ranges, Mustang lies in the rain shadow of the Himalayas, creating a striking desert-like environment rarely seen elsewhere in the country. From Jomsom, the trail follows the Kali Gandaki River northward toward Lo Manthang, the walled capital of Upper Mustang. Along the way, trekkers encounter colorful eroded cliffs, ancient cave dwellings, century-old monasteries, and villages that maintain deep Tibetan Buddhist traditions. The trek offers a perfect blend of natural beauty and cultural immersion. While the altitude is moderate compared to other Himalayan routes, the dry climate and long walking days offer a satisfying challenge. Mustang is an ideal destination for trekkers who want a remote Himalayan experience with strong cultural heritage, dramatic landscapes, and the feeling of stepping back in time.
