Overview

Upper Mustang is one of the most fascinating and culturally rich treks in Nepal. Only opened to foreigners in 1992, this restricted region preserves a way of life that has remained unchanged for centuries. The landscape is a dramatic contrast to the green valleys of Nepal — think red and ochre desert canyons, wind-carved cliffs, and the ancient walled city of Lo Manthang.

Trek Highlights

  • Explore the walled city of Lo Manthang
  • Ancient Buddhist monasteries and cave systems
  • Surreal desert landscapes behind the Himalayas
  • Preserved Tibetan culture and traditions
  • Unique rain-shadow ecosystem
