Day 02 : Drive from Kathmandu to Besisahar
After morning breakfast in the hotel, the tour starts with the scenic view of beautiful hills, countryside lifestyle driving along the Trishuli River. Overnight at lodge.

Day 03 : Trek from Besisahar to Bahundanda
We will be walking through fairly lush ground, slowly climbing up to Bahundanda, a village perched high above the valley floor, surrounded by rice paddies. Here we get to experience what rural Nepal is all about. Our hikes for the next few days will be following the mighty Marsyandi River, a raging torrent of water during the monsoon rainy season.

Day 04: Trek from Bahundanda to Tal
Today we will be leaving the lush rice paddies and the sub-tropical jungle, as we begin our ascent towards the village of Tal, nestled on a plateau. Tal means lake, but no lake can be found here, just the imprint it has left. At only 1400 meters, the nights are already cooler and the vegetation begins to change. Due to the density of small villages in the area, we will have ample opportunity to meet the Nepalese at work and at play.

Day 05 : Trek from Tal to Bagarchap
While hiking to Bagarchap we will pass the old village and its ruins, which was completely destroyed by a massive landslide less than ten years ago. A series of bridges allow us to cross the roaring Marsyandi River, using the well-trodden paths of the porters and locals. Today’s hike is not for the faint hearted as several sections of the path allow for some rather impressive views down to the river. Bargarchap is the first truly Tibetan style village we will come across with flat, firewood covered roofs, and prayer flags blowing in the wind.

Day 06 : Trek from Bagarchap to Chame
The hiking today is a little rougher than the previous days with quite a bit of up and down, crossing the river several times on good bridges. Reaching the town of Chame, one of the larger settlements of the area will allow us to have a hot shower. Chame is the administrative headquarters for the Manang area and is also known for its healing thermal baths and interesting architecture.

Day 07 : Trek from Chame to Pisang
Today we will have a shorter hiking day ahead of us. The landscape between Chame and Pisang changes notably, and soon we will be walking through sub- alpine terrain which is Alpine interface. The early part of today’s walk will take us through large forests and past the massive, 1500-meter rock face called Paungda Danda. Pisang proper is a cluster of homes with a few nice lodges and plenty of activity in the fields.

Day 08 : Trek from Pisang to Manang
A half-day of walking will get us to Manang. The climate here is very similar to the high Tibetan plateau, with little precipitation and large fluctuations between daytime and nighttime temperatures. The inhabitants of Manang use horses for nearly everything, and the jingling of bells will announce the arrival of a horseman and his stead. Manang has a local airport, and many good bakeries and several internet cafés. We will be staying here for three nights, allowing us to acclimatize properly before taking on Thorang-La. Day hikes will be planned but are not mandatory.

Day 09 : Rest day in Manang
Rest-day in Manang. Explore, relax, do laundry, read. Manang also has a ‘high-altitude’ medical office, which regularly holds lectures on high-altitude illnesses for trekkers and climbers. Watching an English-speaking movie in Manang’s local move theatre can also be a quite ‘surreal’ experience.

Day 10 : Trek from Manang to Khangsar
Today’s trek will be difficult, as the higher altitude is certainly felt here. Our camp for the night is located at 4420 meter. It takes about 5 hours to trek from Manang.
