    Best Time For The Adventure

    Are you confused about choosing the perfect date for this adventure? Let us help you with that.

    The best time to undertake this trekking route is during the autumn (September to November) season. During this time, the skies are generally clear, and the weather is dry, making it an ideal time for trekking in the Himalayas. The temperature during the day is pleasant, making it comfortable for trekking, while the nights can be chilly, so it is advisable to carry warm clothing.

    Another suitable time for this trek is during the spring (March to May) season. During this time, the weather is mild, and the rhododendrons are in full bloom, adding color to the surrounding hillsides.

    It is not advisable to undertake the Tsum Valley with Manaslu trek during the monsoon season. The heavy rainfall during this time can cause landslides and make the trails dangerous and impassable. Winter can be an option for experienced trekkers. However, the trekking routes can be challenging during this season due to the cold and snowy conditions.

    Difficulty Level

    Do you want to know how difficult the journey can get? Well, let's cover that in this section.

    The Tsum Valley with Manaslu Trek can be considered strenuous due to its high altitude and rugged terrain. The trek involves long days of hiking through remote and challenging terrain, crossing high-altitude mountain passes.

    The Larkya La Pass, which stands at an altitude of 5,160 meters, is the highest point of the trek. Crossing the pass requires a good level of physical fitness and endurance.
