Overview
TSUM VALLEY TREK: A MARVELLOUS ADVENTURE LASTING FOR NINETEEN DAYS.
Tsum Valley Trek is an outrageous trek in steep trails in which the valley itself is isolated from the sprinkles of modernity. With the uncluttered and untouched community by the modernism, Tsum Valley and Manaslu region show the ancient Buddhist and Tibetan culture as well as beautiful scenic nature in raw form. So, if you’re a travel connoisseur who finds tranquility in a cherish and silent environment, then this place is highly suggested to you to embrace the beauty of the Manaslu Region. The Tsum Valley is named after the Tibetan word “tsombo” which means “vivid” and as described by Guru Rimpoche “the holy hidden valley of happiness.”
The trek starts by driving by bus from Kathmandu to Arughat where the trekking begins in earnest. The trail accompanies the enraged Budhi Gandaki River for four days staying in tea houses in the villages of Soti Khola, Maccha, Jagat, and Eklelbhatti. Then from Ekelbhatti, the road heads northeast into the mesmerizing Tsum Valley traveling for the village of MuGompa. This is the turnaround point and the route goes descending back down to the Tsum Valley in order to re-join the Manaslu Circuit Trek at the lovely village of Deng. You spend 5-6 days in the “hidden valley of happiness” which is well worth the effort as it is an opportunity to leave the 21st century behind and hit monasteries that are over 100 years old and learn unique Tibetan culture.
Manaslu Tsum valley trek growing its fame as this area is a good alternative for those seeking for vividness in topography. Layered by the different landscapes from semi-tropical to pure alpine forests, this place has everything from lush rhododendron forest winded by the lovely waterfall accompanying in the trail. The trail accompanying the lovely desolated natural entities and present it in very raw form. Throw in the ever-present mule and yak teams addressing the basic requirements of life through the valley, plentiful wildlife expecting to beguile at every turn of the pathway, and the flexible and ceaselessly cheering inhabitants with their welcoming bearing, and you truly have one of Nepal’s most amazing experiences.
The Panoramic views of the Ganesh Himal and Siringi Himal range display as the path heads towards Lopka, while from Chhokoang Paro onwards the compact landscapes give way to the lofty regions of the valley and the cultural time capsule that the local Tibetan community pictures, with its numerous Buddhist sanctuaries, monuments, and the general air of spirituality that permeates the entire valley’s atmosphere – a night spent at one of the monasteries add even further to the sense of wonder and complex.
