Manaslu, located east of the Annapurna range, is the eighth-highest peak in the world and has been open to foreigners since 1992. Manaslu Circuit Trek is a laborious trek that demands experience and good physical well-The Manaslu trek ascends through the Budi Gandaki River, offering numerous rivers and waterfalls to Larkya La Pass (5106 m), the highest point in the Manaslu Trek, providing striking views of Himalchuli, Manaslu (8163 m), Ganesh Himal and other various mountains.En route, diverse landscapes, and a variety in flora and fauna amaze anyone. The laborious part of trekking along the Manaslu circuit starts from Samagoan (3520 m) where you could get lucky to see the freezing green lake of Birendra.

While similar in some aspects to the Annapurna Circuit, the Manaslu trek takes place in a less-traveled valley, providing an authentic and immersive experience.The recent construction of lodges has allowed this circuit to evolve over the years. The gompa (monastery) of Sama, nestled in an amphitheater at the foot of Mt. Manaslu, marks the entrance into Buddhist territory. The Larkya Pass (5,106 meters), the highest point of the route, features a gentle slope before plunging abruptly into the lower valleys. The trek offers superb panoramas and typical villages inhabited by various ethnic groups.

One of Nepal's most beautiful migratory ducks, the Ruddy Shelduck (चखेवाचखेवी) holds a special place in Nepali literature, poetry, folklore, and songs.

As autumn approaches, these beautiful birds begin their annual migration from the high-altitude glacial lakes and river valleys of the Himalayas to Nepal's wetlands, rivers, lakes, and ponds, where they spend the winter. They are usually seen in pairs before returning to their breeding grounds in the 𝐡𝐢𝐠𝐡 𝐇𝐢𝐦𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐲𝐚𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐂𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐀𝐬𝐢𝐚the following spring—one of nature's most remarkable migration cycles.
