re you not so fond of walking but still want to explore different remote and unique places around the globe? If yes, then we have the Upper Mustang Overland Tour, where you can drive on a land cruiser and drive to different isolated places in the Upper Mustang region of Nepal. It’s an adventurous and lively ride to some enchanting terrain of Nepal.
The drive starts from the capital city of Kathmandu and goes through a scenic route to Pokhara. On the way, you pass through some fabulous views of a countryside landscape, villages, hills, valleys, rivers, and forests. From Pokhara, the drive follows a route to the deepest gorge of the world (Kali Gandaki gorge) and then to Kagbeni. As you move ahead from Kagbeni, you will notice the change in the atmosphere. The lushness slowly disappears into the dry, waterless, and treeless zone. The drive continues to Charang. At Charang, we stop our ride and hike up to Luri Cave. After exploring the cave, we continue our journey towards Lo Manthang, a forbidden Kingdom of Buddhism. At Lo, we can visit Chosar cave and explore Chosar village. We can even hike to Ghar Gompa. After exploring the Lo, we drive towards Chussang and then to Muktinath.
Muktinath is a popular spiritual hub of Hindu and Buddhist pilgrims. There are a Vishnu temple and a monastery in this place. The 108 waterspouts around the temple make the place looks alluring. The temple is not just famous from a religious view but from a scenic perspective as well. The place offers some panoramic views of mountains in the Annapurna massif. After visiting the temple, the Upper Mustang Overland Tour concludes with a drive back to Kathmandu city via the same route. This tour is an amazing way of escaping long day walks and visiting one of the isolated regions of Nepal. So, are you ready for this wonderful trip? If yes, then World Alpine Treks is here to serve you with all that it needs
