Flagship Itinerary

Tsum Valley Trek

One of Nepal's most remote and only-recently-opened valleys — restricted until 2008 — Tsum Valley sits north of Manaslu between the Buddha Himal, Sringi Himal and Ganesh Himal ranges. The Tsumbas, of Tibetan origin, practice an ancient form of Buddhism largely untouched by the outside world. The trek follows the lower Budi Gandaki up from Soti Khola before splitting off the main Manaslu trail into the hidden valley itself, visiting Rachen and Mu Gompa near the Tibetan border.
