Welcome to Mustang Muktinath Overland Jeep Tour. It’s an exceptional tour for you, your friends, and your families. At the heart of the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri Himalayas, the trans-Himalayan landscape of the Mustang region is great to explore throughout the year. The striking culture of the Tibetan Buddhists, hospitality, and primarily their spiritual way of life along with the historically significant ritual sites- Mustang is literally for all.
Past Vs Present: Trip Modification in Mustang
When Mustang opened for foreigners in 1992, it was one of the best trekking destinations in the world. Still, we can see several trekking groups along the way while driving towards Upper Mustang- Lomanthang. Trekkers would walk for 10 days in this hidden landscape covering the route from Kagbeni-Chhuksang-Chele- Syangbochen-Ghami-Tsarang-Lomanthang. A huge caravan could be seen exploring and marching through the isolated landscape and the Tibetan Buddhist settlements.
But the time has been changed now.
Now, travelers choose a jeep ride. It became possible after the strategic Highway-Korola Highway came into practice. The total 3-week journey became possible in a week or less from Pokhara, which is relatively luxurious too.
There are different ways to explore the dramatic landscape of Upper Mustang- from 4 days to 10 days. We will be giving a clear-cut program in the itinerary section.
