quite popular mountain, even if it is the world's eight highest peak, Manaslu stands as a
twin peak not far from Annapurna. With its sister peaks Ganesh Himal and Himal Chuli (both
over 25,000 ft), around it, Manaslu looks like it is the highest and biggest of them
all. Flanked by the villages enroute like Manang, Manaslu seems to be a rare trekkers
dream. However, people travel to Manang to see a greater view of a massive himalayan
range, they go to the Manaslu Base camp. Manang (3,351 m), the unofficial capital of the Annapurna Region, offers spectacular views of the Annapurna and
Gangapurna looming over the town. To the south is the view of the north face of
Annapurnas, so big that it is difficult to grasp their immense scale.Adventure Makalu announces two trekking package to see the Manaslu region. 1. Around Manaslu, Trek to see the

As we walk the gentle Somrie khola river valley, with its Tamang and Chhetri village, we see sal and pine forests. Next we travel high up the Buri Gandaki river shere the small villages are inhabitated by Sherpa people. In Sansgaon athe people are gurung, living in a Sherpa lifestyle and speaking Sherpa/Gurung language.
