At present Mustang is a very
popular trekking region in Nepal. The Home
Ministry of Nepal announced the Opening of the
restricted areas in October 1991. There is also
strict control in obtaining a special permit
from the Department of Immigration to protect
their tradition from outside influence as well
as to protect their environment. According to
government rule, liaison officers were
accompanied with the trekking groups in previous
time but now there are nor necessary to have
them. The region of the Tibetan influence,
Kaligandaki, from the Tibetan border south to
Kagbeni is generally referred to as " Upper
Mustang". The trek to Lo Manthang is through an
almost tree-less barren landscape, a steep rocky
trail up and down hill and panoramic views of
Nilgiri, Annapurna, Dhaulagiri and several other
peaks make your trek memorable. The Monasteries
in this areas are most Gelukpa, Shakyapa and
Nyingmapa sect. There are also 2 monastery of
Bonpo religion who were in Tibet before the
Buddhism enter. I am planning to give you the
detail information of this trek after you arrive
in Nepal. |
