Mustang Region

Ever wanted to step into a land where time seems to stand still? The Mustang Region is unlike any other trekking destination in Nepal.

Tucked between the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri ranges, this mystical, wind-swept valley offers a unique blend of dramatic landscapes, Tibetan culture, and ancient history. Whether you're drawn to the desert-like cliffs of Upper Mustang, the deep gorges of Kali Gandaki, or the sacred Muktinath temple, trekking in Mustang is an experience you'll never forget.

Mustang is often called the "Last Forbidden Kingdom" because it remained closed to foreigners until 1992. Today, it still holds an air of mystery, with its ancient caves, walled city of Lo Manthang, and Tibetan Buddhist heritage. The landscape is vastly different from the green hills of Nepal—it’s a high-altitude desert with dramatic rock formations, colorful cliffs, and hidden monasteries.

One of the best things about Mustang? You can trek here year-round!

✅ Spring (March–May) – Best for clear skies, blooming rhododendrons, and warm weather. A great time to explore Mustang’s unique landscapes.

✅ Monsoon (June–August) – Unlike most trekking routes in Nepal, Mustang is perfect for monsoon trekkingbecause it lies in the rain shadow of the Himalayas. Expect dry trails and dramatic skies.

✅ Autumn (September–November) – The most popular season for trekking, with stable weather, clear mountain views, and cultural festivals like Tiji Festival in Lo Manthang.

❌ Winter (December–February) – Trekking is possible, but temperatures drop below freezing, and heavy snow can block passes. However, the fewer crowds and raw beauty make it an adventurous choice.
