Review
'I agree with Kev Reynolds that the route up the Buri Gandaki and behind Manaslu is one of the finest and most scenically spectacular treks in all Nepal ... About one third of the guide covers general advice on travelling in Nepal. The main trekking part includes useful route summaries, profiles and small maps. His full account gives a very good idea of what to expect. Congratulations for producing such a comprehensive guide.'(George Band, High)
Product Description
The Manaslu trek is one of the finest and most scenically spectacular in Nepal. This guide records the paths, villages, valleys and mountains seen along the way, yet it is not intended to take from the reader any of the mystery or surprise that such a diverse region holds. The Manaslu Himal is presently restricted to group trekkers; a number of those who venture there will no doubt be first-time visitors to the Himalayas. Information set out in this book will give an idea of what to expect - of the preparation required before going, the physical demands of the route and a hint of the rewards to be won every single day. Day-by-day the trek reveals scenes of outstanding natural beauty, yet it is not only the visual splendour of a Himalayan paradise that will be remembered years after, but the smiles of local people met upon the way, their simplicity and their spirituality. A cry of 'Namaste' rings in the air - 'I salute the god within you'. Such a greeting will enrich each hour and accompany every vision of glory.
