Rupina La Pass trek in the Manaslu region, less touristy than other trekking areas of Nepal. It was only officially opened to trekking in 1991. It is one of the challenge walking holidays with high altitude hiking over Rupi Na La pass. The entire Manaslu region is geographically spectacular and culturally fascinating due to superb Himalaya scenery, lush valleys, beautiful landscapes, very few human settlements and diverse flora and fauna. We trek to high altitudes avoiding the humid temperature of the lowlands. Less Chance to see/cross other trekkers the first ten days of the trek while making the circuit via Rupina La. This is a wild place, but our staff of expert Sherpa guides ensures that our team is safe and cared for.
