Are you interested in a budget trek in Nepal that attracts fewer trekkers? If so, the Manaslu Budget Trek is an ample destination. We especially designed this trip for students and low-budget travelers who are keen to explore the Himalayas at minimal expense. The name of the Manaslu Circuit Budget Trek originates from Mt. Manaslu (8,156 m), the eighth-highest mountain in the world. The Manaslu Trek has been promoted all over the world since the Japanese team made the epic journey to the top of this mountain in 1956. Today, you can experience this trek as a tea house or a basic homestay.
The Manaslu Circuit Budget Trek goes from low land to high land through amazing natural beauties and incredible landscapes, so this trip is known as the virgin trekking trail of Nepal. The trek is a combination of adventure tests and cultural livability. Century-old Tibetan culture, people's lives, beliefs, rare wildlife and vegetation, monasteries, chortens, mane walls, and mountain scenery make your trip remarkable. Larkya La Pass (5,160 m) is the main key point of the Manaslu Budget trip, and glaciers, lakes, and a beautiful surrounding natural atmosphere make the trip more enjoyable. Manaslu is near the Tibet border, and the culture here is untouched by modernization. The government of Nepal has declared a restricted area for trekking.
You need special permits to hike in this area, which a registered trekking agency can exclusively obtain with at least a professional trekking guide and a minimum of two people in a group. The trip cost is already expensive because it requires four different permits and incurs long-distance transportation expenses. As Gorkha residents, we at Nepal Mother House Treks are trying to reduce the trip cost and make the budget trek.
The Manaslu Circuit Budget Trek journey begins in the capital city of Kathmandu, after organizing all permits and paperwork. There are regular bus services from Kathmandu to Arughat Bazaar. For much more comfort and a pleasant drive, you can also hire private vehicles. If you have a short time, then there is an option to drive to Lapubesi, further than the Arughat bazaar; this makes you two days ahead of the classical trekking itinerary. Trekkers are concerned about the road congestion at the Manaslu Larke Pass Trek and are curious about the trekking trail of the Manaslu Circuit beyond the road. To meet your goal, we try to escape vehicles and road construction at the beginning of the trek and explore Nepalese rural settlements and livelihoods with dissimilar experiences to other trekkers.
The trip continues along the bank of the Budhigandaki River (Yashodhara Nadi) and its narrow canal, visiting various rural villages, including Machhkhola, Tatopani, Jagat, Philim, Deng, Namrung, Lho, Samagaun (the birthplace of theMingyur Rinpoche book "The Joy of Living"), and Samdo, and crossing over the Larkya La Pass via Dharmashala. Finally, the cheap Manaslu Circuit Trek concludes at Dharapani, following a visit to the villages of Bhimtang and Tilje. Take a public bus or private jeep to Besisahar and then to your destination.
We at Nepal Mother House Treks assume the Manaslu Budget Trek will be the best option for those trekkers who are looking to trek on a remote trip in the high Himalayas at a lower cost. To avoid the crowd of trekkers, it would be best to visit in mid-September or late October in the autumn and from March to May during the spring. We are glad to organize the Manaslu Circuit Budget Trek according to your requirements with expert local guides and porters. Sign up with us for your ultimate experience in the heart of the Himalayas in a budget-friendly way.
