Mustang is a very popular trekking region in Nepal
since the Home Ministry of Nepal announced the
opening of restricted areas in October 1991. However,
there is strict control over obtaining special
permits from the Department of Immigration in
order to protect local traditions from outside
influence as well as to protect their environment.
The region of the Kaligandaki, from the Tibetan
border south to Kagbeni, is generally referred
to as “Upper Mustang”. The trek to
Lo Manthang passes through an almost tree-less
barren landscape. A steep rocky trail climbs up
and down hills with panoramic views of Nilgiri,
Annapurna, Dhaulagiri and several other peaks,
making a truly memorable trek.
