A Journey to Remember

Situated along the Thorong La pass in the Annapurna circuit, Muktinath is a trekking junction that connects Manang with the renowned Upper Mustang trek.

The trail itself follows the Kali Gandaki River, leading you through a mesmerizing spot nestled amidst the mountain chain barrier.
