The walking trail of the Kali Gandaki river to enter the upper Kagbeni village would remind you of the ancient Himalayan trading route of the Nepalese, where people used donkeys to carry their goods along the trail. The place is truly blessed with pure Buddhism that people follow their traditional life and similar Tibetan style Buddhist culture to respect their ancestors and gain prosperous life as well.

The walk further from Kagbeni would lead you to the exit point of Upper Mustang to the entrance of the Tibetan border. Certainly, trekkers would need a special permit from the Tourism Board of Nepal to travel beyond the Kagbeni. As the Upper Mustang Trek extends to the southwest vast Tibetan plateau trekkers would definitely discover old fascinating villages like Tsusang, Ghami, and Tsrang with a famous capital kingdom Lo- Manthang. The Lo- Manthang is a famous walled kingdom in the ancient time where the “Raja” king of Mustang used to rule hundreds of centuries before Nepal became a republic nation.

Series of walk progress with small stupas “Chorten” and monasteries decorated with five different colored prayers flag would snatch your heart and make it enjoyable with the joy of fresh air. Barley and buckwheat pastures of the villagers would automatically please your happiness and nurture your eyes. Thus, after the joyful trekking to the Upper dry country and Lo- Manthang with amazing experiences our walks would head back to the same alternative trail to the headquarter Jomsom.

In 2010, my son, husband and I did the Langtang Valley Trek with Anjan as our amazing guide. His knowledge of the area was extensive, including walking expectations, weather and terrain conditions, and the best places to stop, rest, eat and sleep. So much so, that other Trekkers called on his advice despite having their own guides. He was a very acknowledges an expert mountain guide. On the trek, Anjan was nurturing, fun and extremely amicable with everyone. He had a very endearing personality, and over the two-week trek, he became a member of our family. I highly recommend Anjan to anybody considering undertaking any trek in Nepal.

I have done 3 treks with Anjan and Nepal High Trek & Expedition Langtang gosainkund Trek, Everest Base Camp Trek and Island peak climbing and Annapurna circuit Trekking 5 years before in Nepal. That’s was wonderful and lifetime trip in my life. Due to weather conditions, we had to change our plans and return to Besi chair and then do the Annapurna Base Camp with a few extra places along the way. My guide was Anjan and he was so helpful. When our itinerary had to change he was helpful, suggested other options and did what he could to make the best of a situation beyond all human control. Anjan is very proud of his country and willing to share all his knowledge and experience with his clients. Nepal High Trek & Expedition is trustworthy, takes all responsibility and all problems The staff at Nepal High Trek are very helpful and willing to help you with any information or anything else you may need. I would highly recommend this agency as they are professional, competent and helpful! I will definitely be back and trekking with them in the future.
