About Manaslu Conservation Area

The Manaslu Conservation Area encompasses the region around Mount Manaslu (8,163m), the world's eighth highest peak, offering one of Nepal's most rewarding and least crowded circuit treks. The Manaslu Circuit crosses the Larkya La Pass at 5,106m and passes through diverse landscapes from subtropical valleys to glacial moraines. The area is home to Tibetan-influenced communities, snow leopards, Himalayan tahrs, and over 110 bird species. The restricted-area permit requirement keeps trekker numbers low, ensuring an authentic and uncrowded experience.
