Upper Mustang Trek:

Because of the isolation from the world, the region is able to maintain its centuries old culture & landscape. The sixteenth century Buddhist monasteries & the caves carved into sheer cliff walls in mustang draws numerous trekkers to the area. Mustang possesses a striking terrain of a semi-arid desert alongside deep ravines & rock shelves, fringed with snowy peaks. Concealed behind the grand Himalayan ranges, Mustang is a buried haven in Nepal. This trek is a must for those yearning to explore the fascinating landscape and the rich Tibetan culture.

Gokyo lake trek:

The radiant, pristine blue & green waters of the Gokyo Lakes are one of Nepal’s most exceptional sights. They feature the highest freshwater lake system in the globe, at about 5,000m.
