The Larkya La Pass which cuts behind the Manaslu Massif is one of the area recently opened to trekking and this trek offers some of the finest trekking in the Himalaya wilderness. From Gorkha, the old capital of the most powerful king of Nepal, you trek up the wild Buri Gandaki River, through rough gorges slicing between Himachuli (7890m) and Ganesh (7429m) The trails are steep but your first of the classic peak of Manaslu (8165 m) dissolves the fatigue and the Buddhist prayer flags and Chortens seem to offer spiritual support as you climb towards your goal-Larkya La Pass (5153m) The views of Manaslu and theneighboring peaks are worth the effort, and time is spent on the pass taking photos or just preserving the scene in your mind’s eye. A steep descent into the Marsyangdi valley is rewarded with a delightful walk back along the river through small villages and across Crystal Rivers to Pokhara and the end of an exceptional trek. Trekking itinerary can be design as your interest and budget.
