Upper Mustang 1 Month Trek

09-Feb-2023

We just had the Upper Mustang trek 1 month ago, it was an amazing journey. The people living there were so friendly to me. Even though the locals and I didn’t talk too much due to our language barrier the feeling of connection I had with them is just unforgettable. The ancient history of the place is so interesting and everything I got a chance to experience on this trek will always be in my heart.

Couples at Upper Mustnag Trekking

Myself and my husband wanted to spend our first anniversary doing something adventurous and my friend suggested we do the Upper Mustang trek. Nepal’s Upper Mustang made our first anniversary memorable. The nature of Upper Mustang, the beautiful landscape, and the amazing culture made our journey unforgettable.

Enjoyable Trekking Experience

17-Jul-2021

I and my 5 friends are seeking an adventure that is less challenging but worthy, one of my friends already knows about the Upper Mustang trek, so we did some research and got in the discussion to visit Upper Mustang. What an amazing journey it was, we had 15 days of itinerary, and those 15 days were the best part of our life. It was my first visit to Nepal but not the last one. Will love to explore more.
