Dolpo Mustang Trek

Max. Altitude: 5,200 m
Trek Duration: 21 Days
Trip Duration: 26 Days
Season: March to May & Sept to Nov

Introduction:

A unique trek in the rugged regions of Dolpo and Mustang exploring two long forbidden lands. It’s a magnificent trek, with diverse scenery and culture. It would surely be one of the classic treks of Nepal if it wasn't such a remote and strenuous route.  Both Dolpo and Mustang occupy the remote region of Nepal along the Tibetan boarder seldom visited by trekkers.  Our approach for this combined trek starts from Juphal (an airstrip in Dolpo).  Walking up to 7-8 hours a day and crossing high passes above 5,000 m we will eventually hike  down from Mustang ending at the airstrip in Jomsom.
