Completing 12-Day Manaslu Circuit Trek (5 Pics)

My personal experience of embarking on the 12-day Manaslu Circuit trek was an exhilarating journey that left me in awe of the majestic beauty of the Himalayas. It was a challenging adventure filled with breathtaking views and unforgettable encounters.

The trek commenced in the vibrant city of Kathmandu, where I met my fellow trekkers and experienced the bustling atmosphere of the local markets. From there, we made our way to Soti Khola, the starting point of our expedition. The initial days tested our endurance as we hiked through steep trails and crossed suspension bridges that swayed with each step. The undulating terrain presented a daunting yet exciting challenge.

As we progressed, the landscape transformed into a picturesque panorama of towering snow-capped peaks, cascading waterfalls, and lush green valleys. The sight of the mighty Mount Manaslu, standing tall at 8,163 meters, was truly awe-inspiring. The local villages we passed through offered a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of the region, with warm-hearted villagers welcoming us with open arms.

Each day brought new adventures and surprises. We encountered treacherous weather conditions that forced us to take shelter in rustic tea houses, where we huddled around warm fires and shared stories with fellow trekkers. The nights were spent under a blanket of stars, with the crisp mountain air reminding us of the beauty of nature.

The final leg of the trek was both physically and emotionally demanding. The steep ascent to the Larkya La Pass tested our perseverance, but the reward was worth every step. Standing at the summit, surrounded by majestic peaks and the vastness of the Himalayas, I felt a profound sense of achievement and gratitude.
