Explore the mystique of Nepal’s desert-like Trans-Himalayan region, rich in Tibetan culture, cave monasteries, and ancient walled cities, in one of the most unique treks the country has to offer.
The Upper Mustang Trek offers a rare and unforgettable adventure into the once-forbidden Kingdom of Lo — a culturally and geographically distinct region tucked behind the Himalayas. With its dry, barren landscapes, sky caves, and striking cliffs, this region feels more like Tibet than Nepal.
Isolated from the outside world for centuries, Upper Mustang retains its ancient Tibetan Buddhist culture, evident in its monasteries, mani walls, and prayer flags that flutter in the high-altitude wind. The trek takes you to Lo Manthang, a walled city that was once the capital of this ancient kingdom.
Unlike other treks in Nepal that focus on snowy peaks and lush valleys, Upper Mustang offers a cultural pilgrimage through a high-altitude desert that feels like stepping back in time.
