The ancient kingdom of Mustang
is in
western Nepal. Some of the foreigners with special permit can
cross the high passes to the valley of Tholung. Here in lies the
palace of Lo-Manthang, the seat of the King of Mustang. From Kathmandu you drive / fly to Pokhara,
than take the flight up the great Kali Gandakhi Valley to Jomsom
and the trek begins. You ascend the ridge to the north of the
town with a spectacular panorama of the Annapurna range rising
behind you. The trail continues to climb onto this southern edge
of the Tibetan Plateau towards Mustang. There are several pass
crossings (the highest being the Nyi La at 3990m) all of which
offer astounding views south to the Annapurnas and north to Tibet.
