Early in the morning, after breakfast, drive to Pokhara (200 km from Kathmandu; 6 hours by bus). Pokhara is one of the most visited cities after Kathmandu because of its scenic beauty. From the city, we get great views of the Himalayas, including Dhaulagiri, Manaslu, and Machhapuchhre, the five peaks of Annapurna. Pokhara is also a tourist destination, so we take some time out in the evening and enjoy ourselves!

An early morning flight to Jomsom, at 2750 m, reveals Jomsom to be a large, bustling settlement, and it is the administrative center of the region. It contains the airport, an army camp, and numerous hotels, shops, banks, and government offices. Continue walking from Jomsom to Eklai Bhatti at 2730 m. From here, we follow the trail along the river to Kagbeni at 2820 m which is situated at the junction of the Jhong Khola and the Kali Gandaki and is the northernmost village that can be visited without a permit to continue on to Mustang. This village fascinates us with its rich Tibetan culture and distinct hospitality, both of which significantly influence us.

We reach Chaile from Kagbeni through Tangbe and Chhukong. The route from Kagbeni to Tangbe is straight up, so it can be done easily. Tangbe is a small village with a Tibetan majority, where you can find Mani walls and chortens. After Tangbe by walking straight down, you will reach Chhusang. On the opposite side of Chhusang, small caves can be seen easily. You can walk from Chhusang to Chaile by crossing the bridge and walking 20 minutes from the bridge.

Today’s hike gets a little more difficult as we cross the Taklam La pass (3,624m) and the Darjori La pass (3,735m). But there are beautiful mountain views and interesting caverns along the route to distract us from our tired legs. The trail leads us down into Samar Village, where we go up a hill and down another steep trail to Syangmoche.

Today there is another major pass to cross, the Yamada La, as well as chorten and lovely towns with barley fields to see. After trekking through the forest, we must cross another pass. The Nyi Pass is 4,010 meters high, but we descend to Ghami for the night. Ghami is a huge settlement for this area, nestled in a picturesque setting surrounded by farmland.

the trek begins with a descent through rugged and often slick terrain to a suspension bridge over the Ghami Khola. The path leads us through mani walls (stone walls with Tibetan mantras engraved onto them) and across the Charang La Pass (3,870m). The settlement of Charang is located at the top of the Charang Chu Valley. To the east of this town stand a fortification and a blood-red gompa. After lunch, there will be plenty of time to explore!

We descend into a canyon, cross a river, and rise to the Lo La Pass (3,950m). We get our first glimpse of the old and lovely settlement of Lo Manthang from the past. This walled village is the traditional residence of Lo’s King and is still the site of several unique and colorful Buddhist celebrations. the atmosphere of the location, the surrounding mountains – Nilgiri, Tilicho, Annapurna I, and Bhrikuti Peak)

Today we’ll be exploring some of Upper Mustang’s mysteries. A short journey to Chhoser marks the start of an unforgettable day! The Jhong Caves, or perhaps Sky Caves, may be found here. These are five-story-high caverns constructed into rock faces. Researchers are still trying to figure out who created these caverns and why. It is thought that they were utilized as cave systems, hiding places, meditation sites, and, subsequently, monasteries. But no one knows where these incredible caverns came from. We may visit some of these caves while bringing a packed lunch to appreciate the ambiance of the caves, lunar-like environment, and mountains while also resting. Then we return to Lo Manthang for another overnight stay.

After walking down from Lo-Manthang, you will reach Dantha. Then you must descend steeply before turning left and walking down the Kaligandaki River to arrive at Yara.

Today is also a difficult and long day for us. Therefore, we start really early in the morning. We first have a short and steep ascent and then a long, flat trail. The trail then descends steeply to Dechhyang Khola. It takes about 30 minutes. Saligrams (black marine animal fossils) can be found all over the place. Then the trail steeply ascends and leads us to the top of the pass. From here, the trail goes up and down, and then we are on a huge plateau and cross it to reach Tangya village.

Today is also a long day again. Therefore, we start again really early in the morning. We leave the village, cross the suspension bridge, and follow the short river route. After crossing the river, we steeply climb up to reach a small pass. Then the trail goes straight to Paha. After the lunch break, we continue crossing many small passes until we reach the top of the hill. Then the trail steeply descends, and we encounter strong winds until we reach Tetang village. We have a superb view of Nilgiri Himal, Dhaulagiri I, Tukuche Peak, and other snow peaks during the trail.

In the morning, after breakfast, we follow our trail through the village after passing the scenic Mani walls. Then, we keep ascending until reaching a small pass, from where we can see the high mountains and picturesque view of Muktinath. Then, we drop down to the small stream and cross on a suspension bridge. After that, we enter the village of Chhyongar and follow the level trail until reaching Muktinath, passing the Kani (gate). In the evening, in its compound, we explore the secret place for Hindus and Tibetan Buddhists for about 30 minutes. We can see the 108 brass water spouts and the Muktinath temple dedicated to Vishnu, a Hindu god. When we visit Muktinath Temple at the same time, we are liberated (saved) from the cycle of birth and rebirth. Below the temple is another Buddhist monastery, where the earth-water-fire combination contributes to Muktinath’s religious significance.

In the morning, after breakfast, we leave the village and drop down to Jharkot village, where we visit the ancient Sakyamuni Buddhist Monastery and Traditional Medical Center. Then we follow the dusty road trail for a while before taking the shortcut left on the trail to Eklebatti. Following that, we take a dusty and steep road trail along the Kaligandaki River to Jomsom.

After breakfast, we fly back to Pokhara, which takes approximately 20 minutes, and then transfer to our hotel in Pokhara. After lunch, we visit and hike around the valley. Stay overnight in a hotel.

We catch an early morning flight to Kathmandu after our long mountain journey. After reaching Kathmandu, we can take a rest or do some souvenir shopping. If we want to explore any other areas of Kathmandu, our guides can help with both souvenir shopping and sightseeing.

Generally, you need 3 hours before your flight time to get to the Kathmandu airport in Nepal. So you transfer to the Kathmandu airport for your flight to your destination.
