The Upper Mustang Trek offers a captivating adventure through the legendary kingdom of Mustang, where you’ll explore a unique culture and ancient traditions. This trek takes you into a hidden world, leading to Lo-Manthang, the historical Buddhist kingdom of Mustang. However, it is important to note that access to the iconic 5-Story Palace in Lo-Manthang is currently restricted.
For many years, Upper Mustang was closed off to foreigners to protect its pristine environment and rich cultural heritage. To maintain this, the Nepali government enforces high entrance permit fees to regulate visitor numbers and preserve the region’s delicate ecosystem. The Upper Mustang Trek allows you to experience untouched landscapes and an unspoiled natural environment. Due to the area’s limited modernization, you won’t find luxury hotels or modern amenities, making this trek a truly immersive journey into one of Nepal’s most remote and culturally rich regions.
