Manaslu Circuit trekking – Frequently Asked Questions & Answers

The Annapurna Circuit has been the most popular trek for quite long, but its repute is catching up with it. Those looking for sheer wilderness & genuine village experience have started to bypass the Annapurna Highway & hike the Manaslu Circuit rather. Though opened for hikers since 1991, the Manaslu Conservation Area remains untouched, with just a negligible fraction - 1/30th – of the tourists who trek Annapurna every season. Below listed are a few questions and answers that we usually get from our clients.

Who’s the Manaslu Circuit trekking for?

Probably most of the people would relish the hike but particularly those who’re fascinated in culture, wish to escape from the heavy crowds and are happy to get out of their comfort zone. For those who have missed the famous Everest Base Camp trekking or Upper Mustang Trekking, they will certainly like this trek.

What permit do I require for Manaslu trekking?

• Restricted Area Permit: US$ 70 per week (was $50 in 2011) + $10 per day extra

• Manaslu Conservation Area Project (MCAP) permit: NRs. 2,000 (approx 20 Euro or US$30)

• Annapurna Conservation Area Project (ACAP) per: US$10mit: NRs. 2,000 (approx 20 Euro or US$30)

Can I trek independently?

As per the rules, you should hike as a group of minimum 2 person and be escorted by a certified guide. People often purchase an additional permit for a “ghost trekker” & then go alone with their guide. To do this you require a real passport from a real (foreign) person.

Is the Manaslu Circuit Trekking tough?

The Lonely Planet has described the Manaslu trek difficult than most other treks. But now this is wrong. There are now new trails that significantly decrease the hiking concerned & reduce the exposure. Now the trails are wide open and good unlike in Tilman’s time (1950) where in one part the trail was a few narrow planks resting on branches that had been hammered into cracks in the rock!

While many of the trails are wonderfully airy, high above the Budi Gandaki River, the trails are ideal for hiking. However, you need to be fit as there will be lots of ups and downs, but there’s nothing too extreme with this hike. Just take it easy while descending from the pass.

Can I do the Manaslu Circuit trekking in reverse?

Yes. But be cautious of proper acclimatization. The locals in Samdo & the lodge owners in Larkya Phedi come this way from Pokhara & Kathmandu as it is the quickest way.

If you’re not acclimatized, it will be wise to come through the Budi Gandaki valley, otherwise you’ve several days acclimatizing in Bimtang pursued by a leap to 5100 meters which is considered dangerous.
