History
The strenuous trek around 8156m Manaslu, the world’s eighth highest mountain, is geographically spectacular and culturally fascinating and was officially opened to tourists in 1991. Although the high pass in this region Larkya La ( 5100m) is not difficult to cross, the trek around Manaslu is harder than most other treks since at many places the walls of Buri Gandaki Valley are perpendicular due to which there are huge amount of wasted up and down climbs over the ridges or onto shelves to bypass cliffs. Moreover the trail is rough and steep and it often literally hangs on a bluff high above the river. So this trek is not suggested to those who have the slightest tendency towards acrophobia. Most of the trek around Manaslu is in a region of strong Tibetan influence as the people here are direct successors of Tibetan immigrants who settled here in early 1600s.
