Manaslu Circuit Tea House Trek 11 Days by Local Guide

Manaslu Circuit has recently opened a Tea house trekking in the isolated Himalayas. Normally it can do a minimum of 14 to above but here we design an 11-day trip for those trekkers who like to explore the Himalayas in the shortest amount of time. For this Trip you need to be physically fit and mentally well prepared. Some days you need to walk for 8 to 9 hours which is more than average walking in a day. It could have been just a camping-organized trip a few years ago but recently there has been a basic teahouse-organized trip. 

Mostly you will stay in the Lodge and have food in the same place (Dhal Bhat the main Nepali food). Fried rice Bread (Boiled and fried eggs Potato Noodles porridge tea coffee etc.) Manaslu Circuit Trek is a combination of culture and religion and is a unique trip among several trekking trails in Nepal. If you can add some days then you may visit Sacred Tsum Valley as well in a 23 days trek. This is itself a restricted area and open since 2007 for trekkers.

We would like to inform you about Manaslu Trek; you need a minimum of 2 people in a group for this trip requiring special permission for the Manaslu Restricted Area (provided by only the Government Register Trekking agency) and at least you need one government license-holder trekking guide. For this trek you need 3 different permits which are below:

[I] MCAP (Manaslu Conservation Area Project) Trekking 

[II] ACAP (Annapurna Conservation Area Project) permits 

[III] Manaslu Restricted Area Trekking Permit

While organizing those permits the immigration officer asked for your Nepal visa which is validated for the entire trip and your original passport with 4 copies of PP-size pictures of each of you. To get those permits it takes almost a whole day to make a different office. 

You can extend or shorten the trip as you wish. We at Nepal Mother House are happy to offer the services you requested whether it is a package or just the guiding and porter service. I assume you are physically fit with previous trekking experience in the mountains. Even though they have no trekking experience trekkers can also do this trip because it starts at a low elevation and goes gradually up. The mountain scenery is stunning and the unique livelihood of the High Mountains is really interesting. This trip will bond us with local people to seek their cultural traditions and beliefs that have been around for centuries. 

Regarding the porter; of course if you are able to carry all your bags why do you spend money on the porter? But you will find your trip a huge difference using porters and not. Sometimes while you carrying your bags on your own you may miss some exclusive pictures or cannot fully enjoy such beautiful nature. So I also would like to recommend you if your budget will ably support then it will be better to hire a porter to fulfill your dream in reality. You have a great contribution to providing jobs for a jobless porter doing nothing. This will support his family and his school children for a bright future indirectly. 

Due to road access further to the Arughat Bazaar nowadays you can now drive to Lapubesi on the same day drive from Kathmandu. So Manaslu Circuit Trek can do from 11 days to above.
