The Manaslu trekking route, unknown to many trekkers and not as popular in the past as regular trekking regions like Everest, Annapurna, or Langtang, is one of the best destinations now to experience hiking in Nepal. Manaslu means a mountain of spirit, and being the eighth highest mountain in the World at 8156m, it offers a tranquil mood along the way with diverse nature and landscapes.
Ideally, the Manaslu trekking track begins from Gorkha and ends at Manang. It has been a regular route since 1950, when a Japanese team attempted to climb the peak. Officially, Toshio Imanishi and Gyalzen Norbu from the Japanese expedition team made the first ascent of Manaslu in 1956.
Another name for this itinerary is the Nubri trekking route, which is significantly valuable to Tibetan Buddhism. Along with the magnificent Himalayas and picturesque villages, one can see many monasteries and people practicing Buddhism on the way.
