Description
The Tsum Valley Trek in Nepal presents a unique opportunity for trekkers to delve into the hidden gems of the Himalayas. As you traverse the rugged terrain and winding trails, you'll find yourself immersed in the vibrant culture and traditions of the Gurung people. Their warm hospitality and genuine generosity offer a glimpse into a way of life untouched by modernity.
The journey through the Tsum Valley is not just about the physical challenge of trekking; it's also a spiritual and cultural pilgrimage. Along the way, you'll encounter ancient monasteries, intricately carved mani walls, and sacred stupas, each steeped in history and legend.
As you traverse the rugged landscapes of the Manaslu region, you'll be treated to breathtaking views of snow-capped peaks, pristine alpine meadows, and cascading waterfalls. The synergy between the two routes offers a comprehensive exploration of Nepal's diverse landscapes and cultural heritage.

It felt like the real nepal
Honestly, i didn’t know much about the tsum valley before starting this trek, and that made the experience even better. the trail felt peaceful, the villages were beautiful, and every day had something different to see. i really enjoyed meeting local nepali people because everyone was so friendly and welcoming. our guide also made a big difference he knew the trail well, helped whenever we were tired, and shared interesting things about local life and culture. it felt more like experiencing real nepal than simply completing a trek. i would happily do this route again.

Amazing Ambition Himalaya
We had a great time whilst trekking the Manaslu Tsum valley trek. Our guide was amazing, he helped us with everything. The porters who were accounted to us contributed to a joyful and casual environment. Ambition Himalaya made sure everything went according to plan, the airport pick-up was smooth, the hotel was arranged beforehand, the drive to the start of the trekking was arranged well. I can confirm that Ambition Himalaya really is a 5 star company. We will return to Nepal and chose Ambition Himalaya once again.

Tsum Valley and Manaslu, a great experience!
We've had a fantastic trek. Shishir's organization and communication was correct and clear both before, during and after the trek. We were never faced with surprises unless positive ones!
A great kudos also to our guide Ghamam Ghale. He always went out of his way for us. Nothing we lacked. He immediately saw what we needed. Thanks to his peace and quiet we all made it to Larka La.
Also a special thanks to the porters Dawa and Gagan. Every day they put a smile on our faces.
In short, a fantastic experience for all our family. Highly recommended!
