Following the up and down terrain of Nepal and walking to higher elevations contrasts these treks to those in the easy classification.

Overview
Manaslu Expedition
Mount Manaslu Expedition is the eighth highest peak in the world which is located in the ridges of Mansiri Himal in Gorkha District of Nepal. It’s the most climbable peak in the world. The Manaslu Himal is 8,163m. Climbers ascend from the North-East Face moderately angled snow slopes before ascending a steep snow arc to the summit.
Manaslu was first climbed in 1956 by Tsuneo Ichimanishi (Japan) and Gyalzen Norbu (Sherpa). At least six routes lead to the summit of Manaslu nowadays. The Manaslu Expedition provides an unforgettable experience due to its few technical sections and diverse surroundings.
If you are looking for an accessible eight-thousander, Mount Manaslu is a great choice. It has a significant altitude but is not as intimidating as those of Kanchenjunga or Everest. Taking into account the success rates of Manaslu ascents, you have a good chance of reaching the summit.
Manaslu Expeditions takes about 6 weeks to climb, including a trek up to 4,400 metre Manaslu Base Camp. The trekking route remains relatively untouched and is a highlight in itself. Comparatively to peaks such as Cho Oyu (8,188 metres), or Shisapangma (8,027 metres), climbing Manaslu is equally challenging in terms of climbing conditions. It is a pleasant climb before tackling a serious technical 8,00-meter mountain. Climbing Manaslu (8,163 metres) is as technical and challenging as Cho Oyu (8,188 metres) and Shisapangma (8,027 metres) and is a suitable climb before tackling a serious 8,000-metre mountain.
