Introduction: Why Join a Group for the Manaslu Circuit Trek?

Manaslu Circuit Trek is one of the most breathtaking and remote Himalayan routes in Nepal. It takes trekkers on an 11-15 day journey around Mt Manaslu (8,163m), offering them the chance to experience the serenity of these untouched landscapes, blended with the northern Tibetan-Buddhist culture and far fewer crowds than those of Everest and Annapurna.

With peak trekking season (September to November), more and more trekkers are arriving in Nepal to explore this country of mountains. And Manaslu Circuit attracts fewer tourists than the Annapurna Circuit and the Everest Base Camp Trek, because the Manaslu Circuit lies in a restricted region and at least 2 foreign trekkers are needed to apply for a permit. Solo travelers couldn't get access in this wonderful region because of this rule. That's where group-joining treks becomes the ideal solution. Whether you have already arrived in Kathmandu or are planning to land soon, joining a group departure would not only reduce the total cost of the trip, your permits would be ensured, and logistics will be handled seamlessly.

 For those who are planning to trek this trek and do not have a companion to trek with to meet the 2-person minimum rule, contact us today to join our group departures and be stress-free.

Why Join a Manaslu Circuit Trek Group?

A group departure can be a good fit if you would enjoy walking with other travellers and following a shared itinerary. Group members may also share certain costs, depending on the transport and services chosen for that departure.

  • Lower Costs: The costs you will be sharing among your fellow trekkers are the cost of the guide and accommodation. If the assigned group members would like to upgrade their services from Bus transport to a private jeep, then you will share the cost of that as well. Sharing this cost will make your trek more budget-friendly.

Before booking, we will explain the group’s itinerary, price, inclusions and expected size so you can decide whether it suits you. Group travel means following a common schedule, including planned walking days and overnight stops. If you want to choose your own dates, pace or side trips, ask us about a private trek instead.

Is a Group Departure Right for You?

Group joining suits solo travellers who want company on the trail, friends travelling together who would like to meet other trekkers, and people whose dates match a scheduled departure.

You do not need to join a group simply because you are travelling alone. We can also arrange a private guided Manaslu trek for one person. Tell us your dates and how you prefer to travel, and we will explain the available options and their costs.
