Manaslu Expeditions Cost and Itinerary 2025

8163 m Manaslu Climbing expeditions Itinerary and cost catered for 2025/2026. Mount Manaslu is the jewel of the Nepalese mountains. Standing proudly as the world’s 8th tallest mountain, the mountain offers splendid climbing adventure. Among 14 mountains of the 8000-meter clubs, this Mansiri Himalayan range mountain is serene and beautiful. However, lots of westerners are still unknown of this lofty peak. Manaslu Climbing Expedition in Nepal is an excellent way of starting your journey towards scaling Mt. Everest (8848.86 m). It makes it easier for climbers to climb Everest after Manaslu.
Climbing a mountain is not an ordinary feat. It is the epitome of all wilderness adventure activities. Moreover, stepping steps on the top of 8163 m Tall Mountain undoubtedly adds supreme gloss to your travel tales. Though scaling mountains is a legendary and rewarding activity, climbers needn’t underestimate the challenge lying ahead.

Route Overview of Manaslu Climbing Expedition

Trek up to the base camp of Manaslu is similar to our Manaslu Circuit Trek itinerary. However, we will be taking the harder reverse route. The main reason behind reverse trekking is to prepare ourselves for challenging climbing. Moreover, the arduous way of trekking can help in getting adjusted to the altitude as well.

Climbers start to trek from Dharapani after the road trip starting from Kathmandu via Besisahar. After walking for two days the climbers reach the Bimthang via Tilje. Acclimatization rest is necessary in this place before crossing the Larke La Pass. Additionally, climbers will visit the village of Samdo and Samagaon before reaching the base camp. Up until Samagaon, the accommodation is in teahouses. However, base camp and climbing route accommodations are in tented camps.

Mountain Climbing

Normally, Manaslu Climbing Expedition takes place in the North East face. There are four camps for the ascent of the mountain. Before embarking on the intrepid journey of scaling a mountain, acclimatization is of utmost necessity. The route is a moderately angled snowy slope on the lower section. However, the slope above Camp I is short and steep. The climbers follow the fixed rope lines via ice bulges up to Camp IV. The site is on a flat surface or Col.
After ascending through snow slopes and a series of plateaus, climbers reach the summit. Our veteran team of Sherpa will ensure safety. With over 2 decades of experience in the field of Nepalese mountaineering and trekking, we ensure a high success rate. However, it is the mountain we are challenging. Depending upon lots of factors, the team of highly qualified Sherpa will decide on the climbing matters.
Spring Season for Everest & Autumn Season for Manaslu Climbing
The best time to climb Mt. Everest is in spring. However, Manaslu Climbing Expedition is during Autumn Season. Manaslu expeditions cost 2026; a window opens from early September to October. Remember us Manaslu Expedition for 2026 or 2027.
Book the Manaslu Climbing Expeditions in Nepal with us for 2026/ 27. The best time to climb is from September to October.  For more information, don’t hesitate to get in touch with our travel planners via WhatsApp at +9779841146306

Great experience in Langtang with Sorbit and Ram Excellent experience on the Langtang Valley Trek guided Sorbit (Sofi) with Ram as our porter. Sorbit and Ram were very accommodating and made sure we had fun even on the days of the walk we found a bit more challenging. Sorbit had great energy, lots of funny stories and was really quick at spotting wildlife, so we got to see lots of monkeys and deer! Ram was such a legend for carrying our stuff, we could not have done this trek without their support. Langtang was a great mix of Forrest walking and mountain views, so would recommend for anyone looking for a week long trek.

Poon hill trek 🫶 I had an amazing time during my four day poon hill trek and want to thank my amazing guide Anil for being there with me!! 🫂🙏 If you have thought about trekking in Nepal but feel overwhelmed by the idea of that, don’t fear! With the careful planning and execution by the trekking company you don’t have anything to worry about. Everything was organised carefully and although it is sometimes challenging it’s also made comfortable to enjoy with the help of your guide. Anil was amazing at checking in making sure I was comfortable, organising all my meals and helping with overnight stays as well as offering me friendly company and laughs throughout and his extreme patience has not gone unnoticed. Thanks so much for looking after me on this trek, I had an amazing time on the mountain and felt inspired and grounded. I leave with a special place for this area in my heart. I feel like I learnt so much on my short time in the mountain ⛰️ Thank you Anil and thanks to the tour company for putting together such a special achievable first trek in this beautiful country 🇳🇵

EBC trek with female guide october 2025 My EBC trek was an amazing experience! Everything was very well organized, and my female guide Samikshya Bajagain took great care of me throughout the journey. Even when things didn’t go exactly as planned, she handled every situation very professionally and with a positive attitude. I always felt safe and supported. The company leader Simbir Ghale was always available and found a solution for everything. I highly recommend trekking with her and with the company — a truly great experience!

Mardi Himalaya Trek My husband John and myself cannot fault our trek to Mardi Himal with Guide/porter Suza. It was a Nepali Festival time and the track was very busy. Suza made sure we had comfortable lodgings by booking ahead. We never had to worry about not having somewhere to lay down and rest our tired legs!! He was easy company always around if we needed anything. He joined us playing cards in the evenings - winning too often! We had to change the schedule a bit due to unpredicted weather (rain) - no problem Suza ‘s experience and local knowledge made this easy too. Thanks Suza, we’re really happy to have had you as our guide and really enjoyed the trek.

I completed an unforgettable 11-day trek to Poon Hill and Annapurna Base Camp with Himalaya View Treks, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. The company was incredibly flexible and well-organized, tailoring the trip to our preferences and ensuring everything ran smoothly. Our guide Suraj kept us motivated and informed throughout, while our porter Anil was always cheerful and helpful — both were fantastic. Special thanks to Simbir for coordinating everything so efficiently and making the whole journey seamless. The stunning views, rich culture, and the team’s support made this adventure truly memorable. Highly recommended!

I planned a 12 days trek by myself but I was looking for a guide. 3 days before leaving to Nepal I have found the agency Himalaya View Treks. From the start the communication was open and easy. Everthing was taken care of only in a few days for everthing to be ready when I arrived. I met my guide in Pokhara. We had beautiful moments together. I really recommand to trek with *Bishal Kulung Rai*. I felt very confortable with him. We had really nice talks but he knew also when to give me the time alone that I was looking for during this trek. He was very supportive, helpful and flexible regarding my requests. In overall, it was a perfect experience ! 🙏🏻💜🏔️🇳🇵
