Lower Mustang: Backpacker Adventure To Muktinath With Guide

Explore the Lower Mustang region on a guided trek from Kathmandu/Pokhara. Visit Muktinath Temple, soak in Tatopani’s hot springs, and explore Marpha Village. Experience the real Nepalese hospitality.
Begin your journey from Pokhara Valley, known for its serene lakes, stunning mountain views, and as the gateway to the Annapurna region. Travel through scenic countryside, passing green hills, traditional villages, and the world’s deepest gorge carved by the Kali Gandaki River.

As the landscape changes from lush greenery to the arid Mustang valley, feel the shift in culture and nature. Stop at Tatopani, where you can soak in the natural hot spring, a perfect relaxation after a day’s drive or walk.

Continue towards Marpha Village, famous for its apple orchards, whitewashed houses, and cobblestone streets. Taste local apple brandy or pie while exploring this charming Thakali settlement that reflects centuries-old Himalayan traditions.

The highlight of your journey is Muktinath Temple (3,800m) — a sacred pilgrimage site for both Hindus and Buddhists. Feel the deep spiritual energy of the mountains as you visit this temple surrounded by eternal flames and 108 water spouts.

Throughout your journey, be guided by an experienced, licensed trekking guide who will ensure your comfort, safety, and cultural connection. Travel by local jeep or bus, stay in cozy mountain guesthouses, and enjoy daily breakfasts with stunning Himalayan views.
