A trek to non tourist and remote where no tea house available en route is perfect to explore the village life and their culture. The trek to Manaslu is started either from Gorkha or Dhading. While trekking, the views are stunning; Annapurna, Manaslu, Himalchuli, peak 29 and Ganesh Himal dominate the skyline. The trail is winding and rice paddies of the Gurung and Magar villages along the Budhi Gandaki River valley soon give way to steep tracks cut into the cliffs of the river gorge. As you enter the rain shadow of Manaslu close to the Tibeaten border, the scenery changes dramatically. Sparse forests decorated with colorful prayer flags, and many shrines proclaim the region’s Tibetan Buddhist heritage. While the approach to Larkya La is demanding, your reward is incomparable views of Manaslu and Himlung Himal from the pass. A steep descent into rhododendron forests will then bring you to the Marshyangdi River Valley and the more traveled Annapurna trails, which lead back to the road head or continue to another adventure of Thorong-la pass. The itinerary given here is heading down to Besisahar and drive to kathmandu.
