In many ways, a trek to Upper Mustang is similar to trekking in Tibet, as it is geographically a part of the Tibetan plateau. Here you will experience a way of life of true mountain people. The people in upper part of Mustang Region have a very little contact with the rest of Nepal and retained their rich cultural heritage. Upper Mustang access is still highly restricted area. To enter upper mustang, trekkers need special trekking permit and must be accompanied by a government recognized trekking agency. Upper Mustang is one of the best options suitable for trekking even during the monsoons. During this time, the upper Kali Gandaki valley is still quite dry with only occasional rainfall. The trek also is not particularly difficult, the highest point reached being only 3,800m, but weather conditions always windy and cold in winter.
