Trekking during the right time can make the trek even more exciting. The spring and autumn seasons are the most favorable seasons for the adventure. The Manaslu Circuit Trek is highly recommended in the spring season during the months from March to May, as the weather is mild and the rhododendrons are in full bloom. Additionally, there will be fewer people compared to other seasons. Another favourable time for the trekking would be in the season of Autumn, from September to November as the weather will be dry and clear to make the views of the mountains more visible, but there is more possibility of busy trails at this time. However, timing your trek correctly can make all the difference between an unforgettable adventure and a challenging ordeal. Let's explore the optimal seasons for tackling this magnificent route.
September to November is typically the best time to trek the Manaslu Circuit. During these autumn months, you will enjoy the luxury of having

The Manaslu Circuit will have vastly different elevations in every part of its region. The rugged landscape, high altitude, and the unpredictable weather make the Manaslu Circuit Trek very demanding. The most common hurdle would be altitude sickness, especially while ascending to the highest point of the Manaslu region called Larkya La Pass (5,106 meters), and the diverse landscape may be draining for many which definitely requires a lot of stamina. Here is a comprehensive breakdown of what makes this trek difficult to embark on:
Starting Altitude: 930 m at Machha Khola
Highest Point: 5,106 metres at Larkya La Pass
Elevation Profile: Over 4,480m throughout the trek
Although it definitely varies individually, the trekkers must be physically and mentally prepared for the taxing journey. The level of risk of getting the oxygen increases as you ascend towards the higher altitudes. It will be tough to adapt to the unusually high altitudes, so acclimatization is essential to prevent health hazards. Especially, acclimatization at Samagaun before embarking towards Larkya La Pass (5,106 m) is needed for every trekker regardless of their good experience with trekking in high altitudes. Walking slowly and resting as much as possible can help you trek without causing you severe altitude sickness.
For more information check out our detailed blog on how to prevent altitude sickness in Manaslu Circuit Trek.

The mandatory guide is required in the Manaslu Circuit Trek because the route is less known and is mandated for tourist safety. The locals do not speak English and the trekker will have a difficult time conversing to know the right path. The Manaslu Circuit Trek will make you reach 5,300 meters high when you cross the Larkya La Pass, which causes altitude sickness in many, and one cannot deal with it alone. So, the prime reason for taking the guide is for the trekkers’ safety, as many foreigners have unfortunately lost their lives in the high altitudes of Nepal.
The Manaslu Circuit Trek will start from Kathmandu and end at Dharapani. The start of the trek will be through a private jeep or a tourist bus. The exciting journey to the Manaslu region will be a drive to Machha Khola from Kathmandu and by passing through Soti Khola. A private jeep will take at least 7 hours riding 99 miles per hour, whereas a tourist bus will take at least 8 to 9 hours to reach Machha Khola. This will be your first day of the spectacular adventure.
After your trek ends, you will make a return journey from Dharapani to Kathmandu in a private jeep, which will take at least 6 hours. After the 6-hour jeep ride, you will switch to another jeep or a bus, which will take at least 7 hours to reach Kathmandu.
Manaslu has a lot of teahouses along the trails that provide lodging too. You will be getting to sleep at the tea houses. The single beds are available. Although it is not always possible to pre-book accommodation, the norm is for your guide to call ahead while you are on the trek or for places with no phone reception. Sometimes the guide will arrange for someone else to go ahead and secure your bed for the night. But most of the tea houses will be there for you to provide your stay for sleeping. Besides, there is wifi and telephone service available.
Along with the lodging facilities, they provide you the meals. There is no need to worry that one would not get anything to get fed on to keep on going forward. In fact, the variety of the food items is quite impressive, as such remote locations are able to provide. The foreigners do not need to rely only on the local food, but Western cuisines such as pancakes, spaghetti, pasta, etc., are available for the foreigners to have their staple diet. Even the bakery items, coffee, and tea are also served. But the safe bait is the Daal Bhaat, as it is very filling and tasty, and you can eat as much as you want. Also, some restriction over consuming certain food is for your own benefit. Here is a breakdown of food items you can expect during the Manaslu Circuit Trek.
Non-veg items
You may get a porter to take your main backpack, so you just have to carry your daypack with you throughout your whole journey. However, pack as light as possible. The Manaslu Circuit Trek will require you to pack the following essentials; below is the packing guide you need. For mor information check out our detailed blog on What to pack for Manaslu Circuit Trek 2025?
Reliable headlamp to ensure safe passage
The cost for the whole trip might vary on how much one will spend, but the whole trekking adventure can be done under the cost range from 980 USD to 1300 USD. The permit fees, transport fees, and guide fee will come under the package provided by your travel agency. The extra cost for the snacks and food requires you to take extra cash with you. Only Nepali currency is used so better to exchange the foreign currency into Nepali rupees to get your things done. You can also check out our detailed blog on The Manaslu Circuit Trek Cost for 2025.
The Manaslu Circuit Trek is very demanding with its challenging terrains and high altitudes, which may cause severe health catastrophes. So, travel insurance that provides medical emergencies and helicopter evacuation must be ensured.
The trekking of the Manaslu Circuit may not need an extraordinary level of fitness, but one needs to be physically and mentally prepared. Doing cardio strength training, walking certain miles per day to keep the body in motion, and stamina-building exercises will surely help in making your trek more comfortable and smoother. While many trekkers suffer from altitude sickness, one needs to take precautions and safety measures to prevent and control it. Staying hydrated at times, acclimatization, and slow walking can aid a lot in preventing and dealing with the headache, dizziness, and nausea. But the best way to ensure one’s safety is to get yourself a physical examination before going for the trek.
At the same time, the trekker must abide by the rules of sanitation and cleanliness ethics. The trails must not be littered with the garbage and wastage by the trekkers. Be responsible for the maintenance of the tourist areas and practice clean and hygienic ways while managing your things and wastage.

The Manaslu Trek is a challenging trek in Nepal that typically takes around 10-14 days to complete.

It is also possible to encounter cold and wet weather, especially at higher altitudes. That being said, the Manaslu Trek is doable for people who are physically fit and have some prior hiking experience.

Manaslu is a unique trekking destination in Nepal due to a variety of factors. Some of the things that make Manaslu stand out compared to other trekking destinations in Nepal, such as Everest and Annapurna, include: Remote and less crowded: Manaslu is located in a more remote and less crowded part of Nepal compared to some other popular trekking destinations, such as the Everest and Annapurna regions. This means that the trek offers a more authentic and peaceful experience, without the crowds and hustle and bustle of some other popular treks.

It is a beautiful and serene valley that is home to ancient Buddhist monasteries and stunning mountain views. Overall, the Manaslu Circuit Trek offers a unique blend of natural beauty, cultural diversity, and high-altitude adventure that sets it apart from other trekking destinations in Nepal.
The climate of the Manaslu region in Nepal varies depending on the altitude. The lower altitudes, such as those in the Tsum Valley, have a subtropical climate with hot and humid summers and cooler winters. As you gain altitude, the climate becomes more temperate, with cooler temperatures year-round. At higher altitudes, such as the Larkya La Pass (5,106 meters), which is the highest point of the Manaslu Circuit Trek, the climate is cold and dry, with temperatures often dropping below freezing at night. The best time to visit the Manaslu region for trekking depends on your preference for weather and crowds. The peak trekking season is from September to November and from March to May, when the weather is generally dry and clear, with pleasant daytime temperatures and cool nights. However, these months can also be the busiest, with more crowds on the trails and higher prices for accommodation and flights. The shoulder seasons, which are from December to February and from June to August, can also be good times to visit, with fewer crowds and lower prices. However, the weather during these months can be more unpredictable, with a higher chance of rain and snow. It is important to be prepared for a variety of weather conditions when trekking in the Manaslu region, as the weather can change quickly and can vary significantly depending on the altitude. It is advisable to bring layers of warm clothing, as well as rain gear, to be prepared for cold and wet weather.
Of course. Experience with the trekking adventures surely help but there is no doubt that a beginner cannot do this trek, and as long as the person has a decent level of fitness and a good guide who understands their client’s pace and capabilities, a beginner can start their trek.
No, it is mandatory to hire a guide authorized by the government and an additional hiking partner, so at least 2 people. It is possible to trek alone if you have prior experience, but crossing the Larkya La Pass on the final day may be challenging. So, it is best that you take an experienced guide with you . But, slow walking is good at high altitude.
There is no such restriction for certain ages as long as you are healthy and fit enough to handle the altitude sickness and the long walking durations. There had been trekking accomplishments of the people in the 70s and the youngest is 5 years young.
Walking an average of 25-30 miles a week in the 3 months before the trip and going to the gym regularly. Doing treadmill walks at max incline, which must be at 12 degrees, and stair climbers every so often too. Also wear a backpack once a week or so on your walks.
As for accommodations, one can have issues in a few places, particularly on days for arriving late when there are already a large number of groups taking up the guesthouses. Sleeping in the dining rooms and sleeping inside the permanent tent outside might become the scenarios.
You may need to pay for the internet service at some tea houses. The cost of telephone service and the meals and snacks will be on you. So, it depends on your own control of how much you will be spending per day. Overall, you can take extra cash, considering 30 USD per day.
Permits are not impossible to get. But for a foreigner, a permit to fly a drone in Nepal will cost several thousand dollars. So, unless you are funded by Nat Geo or some big organization, this is not a good idea.
You can get lightweight microspikes. They do not weigh much, and if you get snow or ice, they allow you to trek confidently at pace without fear of slipping.
There is charging available at guest houses and tea houses. Some places at lower elevations will be free, whereas you will likely have to pay per device at higher elevations, around 200-300 NPR, possibly more.
You can do some during your acclimatization at tea houses, but mostly no washing. If anything, it was minimal because your clothes will not dry properly because of the cold weather. So, pack as many clothes as you might need during the trek.
