Manaslu - March 2009
|
Here is a trek I wanted to do since a while. The trek around the Manaslu, in Nepal, is not as famous as his neighbour, the trek around the Anapurnas. It has, however, the advantage of not being as crowded and to still look as Nepal. It could change in the future as some lodges start to appear, here and there, near camping grounds. They are simple and uncomfortable compared to the ones you have in the trek around Anapurnas and there are not some everywhere, but with a bit of time ... Hurry up then to discover a nearly intact area and, of course, beautiful himalayan ranges. |
