If you’re like me and want to dodge the crowds of the EBC and Annapurna circuits, let me tell you Manaslu is where it’s at! This trek is everything I dreamed of and then some. Picture this: rugged trails, spiritual vibes, and mountain views that’ll leave you speechless. Seriously, the path less traveled is something special, and I felt like I was on an adventure that few get to experience. HC Treks nailed every detail, from permits to cozy tea house stays and delicious meals. Plus, my guide had a killer sense of humor, which made those long hikes fly by!
What I loved most was the authentic, expedition-like feel of the trek. With fewer people around, I soaked in the raw landscapes and felt an incredible sense of achievement at the end. I went solo but joined a group through HC Treks, and it struck the perfect balance between independence and camaraderie. Climbing over Larke Pass was tough, but oh man, was it rewarding! Now, I’m already daydreaming about my next trek with HC Treks who knows where the adventure will take me next!
