The Manaslu Circuit Trek and the Tsum Valley Trek are combined to form the Manaslu Tsum Valley Trek. We suggest the Manaslu Tsum Valley Trek if your vacation schedule permits you to spend three weeks in Nepal and you would like to hike a less-traveled route. This journey will lead you to the Manaslu Conservation Area's less-traveled trail. You must travel to Machhakhola, which is 160 kilometers from Kathmandu, to begin the hike, but the journey begins and ends in Kathmandu. The route is pleasant and picturesque, and it gives you a partial off-road driving experience. You will observe Nepal's rural villages, rice paddies, rivers, and the breathtaking Annapurna Range, Manaslu, Langtang, and Lamjung Himal while driving to Machha Khola. The most popular treks are quite crowded during the busiest travel season. For travelers who like to trek in the peace and quiet of nature while learning about Buddhist culture and rural Nepal, the Manaslu Tsum Valley trek is an excellent choice. 

Manaslu Tsum Valley Trek Package

For our Manaslu Tsum Valley Trek, an achievable itinerary has been developed, with plenty of days set up for acclimatization, safety, and touring the most scenic areas of the trek. The vacation package can be tailored to incorporate activities like rafting, mountain flights, or an extension to Pokhara or Chitwan, depending on your tastes and the time frame.

 

Price/Cost of Manaslu Tsum Valley Trek

The cost for Manaslu Tsum Valley depends on the following conditions:

  • Standard of hotels in Kathmandu

  • Mode of transport 

  • Package plans

  • The service rendered by your trekking agency 

Planning your stay in a budget hotel in Kathmandu will lower the trip price slightly from what is mentioned in our package. We can quote the price for the Manaslu Tsum Valley trek depending on your budget by upgrading the accommodation in Kathmandu to a 5-star hotel or downgrading the accommodation to a budget hotel in Kathmandu. Similar to how local transportation is far more affordable than a private jeep ride, trek meals, whether unconditional or limited, also influence the price. Before choosing to confirm your trip, you can review all the provisions and limitations with your trekking agency. Your decision to use full or partial services, such as hiring a guide, obtaining permits, and arranging transportation, will also affect the cost of your journey.

Internet Access and Mobile Phone Network

As previously stated in the Manaslu Circuit and Tsum Valley Trek, there is frequently no service for cell phones on this journey. On the Manaslu Tsum Valley Trek, most of the teahouses offer prepaid wifi. If you're considering getting a local SIM card, NTC offers better network coverage.

 

Accommodation and Meals in Manaslu Tsum Valley Trek

Throughout the entire journey to the Manaslu Tsum Valley Trek, teahouse accommodations are offered. You will be given a twin-share room or a double bedroom for the duration of the journey; however, in Dharmasala, you will have to be ready to share lodging with other trekkers because of the lodges' limited capacity. Throughout the journey, meals are served at each teahouse. While some teahouses offer a wider variety of meals, others just offer a small selection for hikers.

Backpacking/Gears For Manaslu Tsum Valley Trek

At the lower altitude of the trek, the temperature during the day is pretty warm, and during the day you can walk in shorts.. As you go higher, the temperatures start to go lower. The lowest temperature you have to be prepared for on this trek is up to -15 degrees in the worst weather conditions, while at the lower altitude, you can expect about +25 degrees during the day.
