The forbidden Kingdom
Upper MustangSituated North of the Annapurna Himal on the Tibetan border, Mustang is a rugged mysterious arid and haunting wilderness region set amid a lunar landscape of wind eroded hills and cliffs.
A Kingdom within a Kingdom, Mustang's wealth was derived from its position on the Kali Gandaki / Thak Khola trade route to Tibet, the region still retains its own King.
Forbidden to foreigners until 1992 Mustang remains a controlled region which very few people visit, a deliberate policy of cultural and environmental preservation. Our destination is the exotic walled city of Lo Manthang the seat of the King. The Kings Palace is surrounded by a maize of gompas and private houses all enshrined within the city boundary walls. Unmolested Mustang is frozen in time it remains one of the ultimate journeys ever likely to be made in one lifetime. The trek allows us to visit all the major villages on route
Upper MustangThe tour begins with a flight from Kathmandu to Jomsom via the beautiful lakeside town of Pokhara. We commence our trek in Jomosom (lower Mustang) passing along the banks of the Kali Gandaki River towards Kagbeni. On route to Lo Manthang in upper Mustang we pass through the extraordinary village of Tsarang. In this village (around 800 years old) a set of human hands, said to belong to the site's master builder, still remain. According to legend, the king cut the builder's hands off to prevent him from constructing any other place to rival it.
