Upper Mustang, also known as the Kingdom of Lo, is a remote and culturally significant region located in the north-central part of Nepal. This arid and desolate landscape lies at the northern edge of the Annapurna Conservation Area and shares its border with Tibet, China. Historically, Upper Mustang served as a vital trade route between Tibet and Nepal, resulting in a unique blend of Tibetan culture and Buddhism that persists to this day. One of the distinctive features of this region is its mesmerizing desert-like terrain, characterized by dramatic cliffs, ancient caves, and the iconic red and ochre colored canyons. The area is also home to several sacred monasteries, including the ancient Lo Manthang, the walled capital city of Upper Mustang. Due to its isolated location and stringent regulations, Upper Mustang has remained relatively untouched by modern development, making it an alluring destination for trekkers and adventurers seeking a genuine glimpse into an ancient and mystical world. Trekking through this extraordinary landscape offers not only breathtaking views of the Himalayas but also an opportunity to immerse oneself in the rich cultural heritage and traditions of Himalaya people.

Overview

The Upper Mustang tour offers a unique journey into one of Nepal’s most remote and culturally preserved regions, often called the “Last Forbidden Kingdom.” This trip takes you through the hidden desert landscapes of the Trans-Himalayan region, characterized by towering cliffs, deep gorges, and ancient caves. The highlight of the tour is a visit to Lo Manthang, the walled capital of the former Mustang Kingdom, known for its medieval architecture, royal palace, and centuries-old monasteries. Along the way, you’ll experience the rich Tibetan Buddhist culture, vibrant festivals, and stunning views of the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri ranges. The Upper Mustang tour combines natural beauty, cultural exploration, and spiritual discovery.
