Kathmandu-Pokhara-Muktinath (Tour and
Trek)
Mustang region lies in the western part
of Nepal and is officially the name of
the district having a Tibet like region.
It is accessible by foot or by air. It
is located along the banks of the Kali
Gandaki river. It is divided into two
parts namely the Upper Mustang and the
Lower Mustang. Upper Mustang is largely
inhabited by Manangi people and goes up
to the ancient capital of Lo Manthang.
Whereas Lower Mustang covers the part of
lower valley along the Kali Gandaki
river.
Mustang is the only district in Nepal
with its own King. The people of Mustang
call themselves Lobas. Their house and
temple construction all over the region
use stone but mostly mud bricks that are
sun baked. Some beautiful architectures
in this region are the city wall and the
four storey palace in Lo Manthang.

Kagbeni - Muktinath
We make a steep climb up
the Jhong Khola valley
leaving Kagbeni, we then
join the direct trail to
Muktinath just below
Khingar at 3200m. From
here trail continues
high above the Jhong
Khola to the imposing
village of Jharkot at
3500m which is well
worth exploring. We,
therefore, take a break
here for lunch before
continuing on to
Muktinath.
As we leave Jharkot, the
trail climbs up to our
ultimate destination of
Muktinath at 3800m. We
initially visit
Ranipauwa, there are
many teahouses and
shops. Our overnight
stay will be here.
Further 10 minutes walks
up the hill, we will be
rewarded with the actual
religious site of
Muktinath & this area is
kept free of hotels and
camping sites. Muktinath
is a pilgrimage center
for Buddhists and
Hindus. There we can see
Tibetan traders as well
as sadhus from the far
south of India. There is
shrines in a grove of
trees including a
Buddhists gompa & the
Vishnu temple of
Jwalamai. An old temple
nearby shelters a spring
and natural gas jets
that provide Muktinath's
famous eternal flame.
It's the earth-water -
fire combination that
accounts for Muktinath's
great religious
significance. Trekking
