Wonderful Manaslu & Annapurnas Circuit Trek with Ram
We did an amazing long trek with Ramkumar from Himalayan Hub in the fall of 2021. We started in the lower valley of Gorkha, going all the way to Larke Pass with wonderful views on the Manaslu and the surrounding range of 7000m+ moutains. This area is quite remote and people don't really speak English although they are very welcoming, so it's really nice to have a guide for easier interactions and also to understand better the culture of people living in this area. It was quite affected by the landscapes due to the previous moonsoon and Ram was very helpful to find a safe route throughout the trekking area. He is born in this area and therefore had a lot of cool information and anecdotes to share!
After the Larke Pass we came down in Manang Valley, connecting with the Annapurna Circuit, which is also extremely beautiful. We went to the Thorong La Pass with Ram then to Lower Mustang valley where we visited Muktinath to finish the trek, an amazing place where many hinddus and buddhists from across the world come for the temples.
22 great days, thank you!!
We were 4 backpackers aged 25-30 and asked for being grouped together, which resulted in a cheaper price and more fun. We did the Manaslu Circuit and it was a super experience. I can totally recommend this trek. Our guide Rupesh was very experienced with all aspects, e.g. geography, historiy, culture and knowing good tea houses and so on. His English is very good and due to his young age (around 30) he was the perfect fit for our group. Ask for him!:))
I had a great time trekking the Manaslu Circuit with my guide Rupesh. It was a challenging and rewarding 12 day experience. We navigated landslides, walked through incredible scenery and ascended to over 5,100m at Larke Pass. Rupesh was very knowledgeable about local history and culture. I am very glad I decided to complete this trek. Thank you Rupesh for the fantastic memories.

Trek to Manaslu
Our guide Raju was very good, he knew a lot about the history of Nepal and the villages near Manaslu mountain. The trek to Manaslu was beautiful, the last part was a bit difficult/extra fun though.

Amazing trek
We trekked for 20 days on the Manaslu circuit, Annapurna circuit, and Poon Hill. I was a solo traveller who joined three others on this trip. I cannot speak highly enough about my experience. We saw, and experienced, everything. From high mountain passes to quaint villages perched in lush valleys.
We were guided on this trek by Raam. He was the absolute best guide we could have had. From impromptu break-outs into Nepalese songs in difficult moments, to insightful information about everywhere we visited. From picking (and eating) jungle fruit, to sharing stories around a log burner in the evenings.
If I was to trek again in Nepal 🇳🇵 (watch out Everest region), I would only want to go with Raam.
