Mustang Trekking

Mustang TrekkingMustang District, a part of Dhawalagiri Zone, is one of the seventy-five districts of Nepal.

The district straddles the Himalayas and extends northward onto the Tibetan plateau where the former Lo Kingdom of Mustang is found, comprising the northern two-thirds of the Mustang District. This kingdom was officially abolished by the Nepalese government on October 7, 2008. In addition to trekking routes through the Lo Kingdom ("Upper Mustang") and along the Annapurna Circuit in lower Mustang, the district is famous for the springs and village of Muktinath (a popular Hindu and Buddhist pilgrimage site), apples, and Marpha brandy. Mustang was a lost kingdom of Tibet, and although it is now part of Nepal, traditions remains purely Tibetan in the former Lo Kingdom ("Upper Mustang.") Like various other areas in the region special permits have to be obtained from the Nepalese government to gain access to this region.
