My manaslu circuit was amazing..I had a close e mail contact to the agency manager before i came to Nepal. He answered every question...really reliable..in Kathmandu I met the agency manager shiva and guide. They both were so gentle. We started the trekking in the monsun season..I was a little worried but at the end we hiked through beautiful green valleys, the view was amazing..on glaciers, lakes and the manaslu. My guide Kendra was the best I could imagine. He was always by my side and had an amazing overview, knowledge and reference.. a lot of the villages were quite origin and we got traditional food and drinks. We spent a wonderful time together. All in all we hiked nearly 200 km..landscape and climate zones changed.. banana trees, butterflies, apple trees, pine trees, eagles, marmots and monkeys...so diverse!! A challenge was the 5200 larke pass..but my guide managed that before hiking in high altitudes, we had an appropriate acclimatization. At the end I must say, that I will never forget this kind of great adventure! I am so happy and satisfied with the whole trip!

Best trip ever
My trekking around manaslu was totally amazing! I had a real close contact to shiva, the boss of the agency the months before the travel to Nepal..that gave me a feeling of trust..when I came to Kathmandu I met him and my guide. I immediately felt safe and both of them were really gentle..we went 7 hours by common bus to the startpoint of our trekking..that was great! To get into real nepali life..I met gentle people all the way through green valleys and great mountain view..even if we started in the monsoon season, we had beautiful and amazing views on manaslu! During daytime we had no rain surprises..we hiked nearly 7 hours a day..and all in all we did 200 km..landscape changed from humid warm banana region to pine trees ..monkey area..and Stony alpine region..we could observe big eagles and an amount of different colourful big butterflies. my guide Kendra always was by my side..he was really familiar with the region and also he could arrange everything. He was the best man I could imagine!! So nice and peaceful in behaviour! His English was really good..so that we could talk a lot during our breaks. He put a lot of effort in my well being..we acclimatized before hiking in high altitudes so that my first experiences in the 5000 regions were amazing and safe ! Of course I will never forget these unique experience! From the beginning to the end of my trip I was so happy! I enjoyed the whole trekking a lot! It's suited also good for families with older children..trails are not that difficult. . Food in the teahouses is diverse and so good! You get traditional dhal Bhat and also an amount of western likely food. They got warm blankets in the accomodation so that you don't need to bring a big sleepingbag. .I am totally satisfied with the chosen agency!
