The inhabitants of the upper Buri Gandaki region
are known as the Nuri; their language and dress are quite similar to the neighbouring
Tibetans. These local Himalayan people still earn their living through trade with
Tibet. The mountain views from Nupri are sensational and crossing the Larke La
pass is one of the most beautiful and dramatic of the Himalayas. Similar to
many other trekking routes in Nepal, this trek has many routes to choose from.
One option passes through Dudh Pokhari, a milky lake that is a common pilgrimage
destination for Hindus and Buddhists alike. Another route takes you up to Manaslu
Base Camp. While the most popular option is to trek over the Larke La pass to
arrive in the Marsyandi valley in the Annapurna region. |
