MUSTANG LO MANTHANG TREK |
|
Kingdom of Mustang, an
intriguing parched region, forming part
of the Tibetan plateau.
Untouched by the outside world, 16th
century monasteries remain active,
adorned with unrivalled frescoes,
thankas and status of gigantic deities,
preserving ancient traditions. Mustang
is the land of Barley field's pastures
for grazing herds. These upper reaches
of the Kali Gandaki river which has
tantalized a generation of trekkers -
have recently been opened in 1992.
Mustang being a restricted area, there
are certain formalities required by the
government of Nepal in obtaining a
special permit.
The journey to Mustang begins with a
flight to Jomsom via Pokhara. Two days
walking from Jomsom we cross the
traditional boundary into the wild lunar
landscape of Mustang.
Our itinerary allows plenty of time to
explore the main town of Lo Manthang,
the impressive walled capital. Mustang
trek is scheduled during the summer
months when the people are most active
in the fields, villages and monasteries.
The trek ends at Jomsom and from here we
fly back to Kathmandu via Pokhara. |
