Book Now - Click here Visit the "Lost Tibetan Kingdom" of Mustang, only opened up to outsiders in 1992. A harsh, tree-less, yet beautiful landscape. Located in the North East of Nepal, culturally and geographically it is more Tibetan than Nepalese. Its unique and dramatic landscapes, spectacular fortified hilltop villages, and Buddhist monasteries, make it one of the most interesting and rewarding places in Nepal, yet it remains visited by just a lucky few. Situated in the rain shadow of the Himalaya, this trek is best done in the summer months.
