Tsum Valley Trek

Drive along the Kathmandu-Pokhara Highway, and then along the banks of the Budhi Gandaki River for the remainder of the drive.

Begin today’s trek weaving through small Gurung villages and crossing over long suspension bridges.

This is exactly the point at which you enter into the hidden valley of Tsum. Begin the ascent to Lokpa.

You will witness Mt. Ganesh Himal and Mt. Baudha Himal. And you will pass through many old mani walls and stupas.

The climate and landscape starts changing as we go deeper into the Tsum Valley.

You will admire how unique this area is due to the presence of numerous ancient gompas and chortens on the way.

The Mu Gompa, which lies at 3700 m. carries ancient history of Buddhism, culture, and of the civilization there.

Exploring such an ancient place will provide a glimpse into the rich historical past.

Visit Milarepa's Cave, who was one of the greatest yogis and poets in history, and also known as the "Great Magician Saint of Buddhism." It is here that it is believed he spent 12 years in meditation.

At this point, the descent becomes much steeper and more exciting.

The Gompa itself carries a long old history, and the priest there will give us holy information about the monastery.

It is on this day, we officially exit the Tsum Valley.

Arrive back to Machha Khola, the starting point of the trek and where the trek will finally end.

Take your transport back to the bustling Kathmandu City.
