Overview

Nestled in the breathtaking landscapes of Nepal lies the mystical region of Mustang, a land of ancient culture, spiritual heritage, and natural wonders. Among its many treasures, the sacred Muktinath Temple and the rugged terrain of Upper Mustang stand out as must-visit destinations for adventurers and pilgrims alike. 

Perched on a high Plateau in the Annapurna region, Muktinath Temple holds immense significance for both Hindu and Buddhist devotees. The temple complex is a sacred pilgrimage site, with natural gas fires and 108 water spouts believed to cleanse sins and grant salvation to those who bath in them. The serene atmosphere and panoramic views of the Himalayas make Muktinath a truly spiritual experience.

For those seeking adventure and cultural immersion, a trek to Upper Mustang is an unforgettable experience. This restricted area offers a glimpse into the ancient kingdom of LO, where traditional Tibetan culture remains largely intact. Trekking through Upper Mustang, with its barren landscapes, ancient cave dwellings and majestic monasteries, feels like stepping back in time.

Mustang is a land of contrasts, where ancient traditions coexist with modern influences, and rugged landscapes inspire awe and wonder. Whether you’re drawn to its spiritual sanctuaries, architectural marvels, or breathtaking vistas, Mustang offers a journey of discovery unlike any other. So, immerse yourself in the timeless beauty of this mystical kingdom and experience the magic of Mustang to yourself.

The journey to Mustang typically begins with a flight or drive to Pokhara, followed by a scenic flight to Jomsom, the gateway to the Mustang region. From Jomsom, travelers can choose to trek or drive to Mukti Nath Temple, located at an altitude of 3710 m.

Additional Information

Best Time to Tour to Upper Mustang

Summer is not an ideal time to hike in Upper Mustang, as the monsoon overlaps with the Summer and makes the trail muddy and difficult to get across.

The Winter season is also very cold. In the daytime, the temperature falls to about – 10oC; it goes beyond -20oC during the night. Therefore, in winter travel seems quite impossible.

Autumn is perfect for hiking, however, but touring in the spring is strongly recommended, as one of the biggest Mustang-Tiji festivals is a chance to enjoy.

Risk of Altitude Sickness while on Upper Mustang Tour

While in the Tour to Upper Mustang altitude is not a big problem. During the touring period, you are always under 4000 meters, which means you feel less likely than you are to experience severe complications by altitude, even if you feel Altitude Sicknesses (AS) symptoms such as headache, nausea, or vomiting.

However, you need to be careful about the high altitude acclimatization techniques. Don't go for it if you don't feel like going. The disease of altitude may be fatal.

Meals and accommodation in Mustang Tour

At all stops along the upper Mustang track, there are many tea-houses. There is, therefore, no need to carry tents. A small number of tea houses with a friendly staff are available for clean and simple service, while tea houses also provide delicious local food.

However, during the Tiji festival, you have to book beforehand for accommodation and food. You can also carry your own tents. Costs range from $4 to $6 on the touring route. In addition, the price of a single meal is roughly the same.

Communication during Upper Mustang Tour

For mountain Tourkers, communication is most critical. Some places have a strong communication network and may not have a place during the Upper Mustang Tour. Some places also have a satellite telephone. The Tour is linked by NTC and Ncell both. Thus, NTC and Ncell numbers are available for our guides and porters.

Electricity and Connectivity

You will be staying overnight in the tea houses during your Tour. These are small lodges with a common area and a cabin. You can have your food or charge electronics in the community, sometimes use wireless internet, and chat with walkers.

Hot water and electricity do not occur in every tea house. Showering is a luxury and shouldn't usually be done anymore at an altitude of 3,500 m, because warming will be hard when you take a shower again. 

You would need to pay additional for all the above items (douches, hot water, electricity, and wifi).To improve your connectivity, carry your phone to the Nepal SIM, you'll get more than you'd think (GPRS/EDGE speed). Village electricity could be perfect during your stay. Villages above 4000 m tend to be the latter. Tea houses can have the potential to charge you either from solar sources or from a battery bank. but it is most wise to either have your own or not depend on electronic devices.

Drinking water while on Tour

Planning to have at least two liters of water when touring every day is a smart way to start. Filling up water is quick. Taps in, out or in guesthouses mean that there are plenty of places to fill your bottles and/or your water bladders. This could be where you stay, a lunch stop, or a shared public tap used by locals. Use an efficient sterilization method to make sure your water is safe and not contaminated in any way. Bottled water is available to buy throughout the Tour, but we would advise against this for a number of reasons. You do not need them if you use the sterilization method. Environment concerns are there and also buying water is expensive up in the mountains. 

Ensuring your safety

We suggest taking out an insurance plan for your individual accountability, accidents, and illnesses during the service. Regarding the type of activity, you may be asked to show a certificate of insurance for help and support, sanitation, and search. This service is private and not free in Nepal, the helicopter will not take off until it is convinced to pay for the insurance.

Single Supplementary

There will be two people accommodated in each room for the duration of the tour. If you prefer private accommodation, you'll find the option for a "single supplement" of USD 250. Important:  Please note that during the Tour there are some lodges which won't have sufficient rooms to provide private accommodation. So, even if you purchase a single supplement you will end up sharing a room for some days of the Tour.

Carrying Extra money

It’s difficult to give the exact amount of money that you should bring. Costs will vary according to how much you want to spend on shopping and where and what meals (lunch & dinner) you want to eat. Travelers find that around $20 (for lunch & dinner) a day is reasonable for the touring days.

As for the tips, A general rule of thumb for tipping is USD 25 for the guide per traveler and USD 25 for porter between two travelers if you are fully satisfied with their service. So we suggest you allocate a minimum of USD 50 for Tipping. This is just a guideline and you may tip whatever / how much you think is appropriate for the services rendered which made your Tour a memorable one

Luggage per one person

For the Tour, we'll have one porter for two people as per group size. The porter will carry 10-15 kg per person luggage during the Tour. You need to carry your daypack to keep your personal belongings such as wallet, camera, water bottle, dry snack, headlight, gadgets, etc.
