Trip Overview
I have recently completed my second trek with TTG. This latest trip was beyond the Annapurna mountains to the Kingdom of Mustang. The trip was a proper adventure! My guide and I went up the Kali Gandaki river from the village of Kagbeni to the fabled city of Lo Manthang.
The trek took us through the amazing desert scenery of this high Himalayan kingdom. It is a very different region to the very nearby Annapurna Circuit which is more alpine in its feeling. Upper Mustang is a small desert kingdom hemmed in by the Himalayas. The trekking takes you through a region that few people visit and is wildly remote (for now).
We trekked around the sides of enormous mountains, through gorges with fast flowing rivers and over high passes (the highest is only 4100m) through this fascinating land. We visited lesser known parts of the kingdom including the Dhakmar with its blood red cliffs that glow brightly in the sun and the Gar Gompa which is an ancient Tibetan temple surrounded by chortens in a fantastical landscape of mountains.
We stayed in small guesthouses along the way which was a great way of meeting the locals and seeing how they live.
