1 Keep Walking Nepal MUSTANG NEPAL KAGBENI & MUKTINATH On the trail to Muktinath you are travelling through the gorge carved by the Kali Gandak River which originates in the Tibetan Plateau and eventually flows into the Ganges in India. You are in the rain shadow of the Greater Himalayas and the climate and landscape is similar to the Tibetan Plateau and can be cold and dry. The high altitude landscapes make unique and scenic environments where the bare bones of the hills can be seen. During this trip we visit the historic village of Kagbeni before reaching the sacred temple town of Muktinath. Flying into Jomsom, administration centre for the Mustang District and main gateway for Upper Mustang and Muktinath, the 25 minute flight from Pokhara is one of the most scenic in Nepal and well worth the early start. The strong winds that blow up the valley every day from late morning onwards prevents flights taking off from Jomsom after 11am. If you can t make it to Tibet but want to experience Tibetan culture then you don t have to go any further than Kagbeni. This beautiful village retains its medieval feel with narrow covered flagstone alleys and is home to the historic Kag Chode Thupten Samphel Ling Monastery built in The village was designed as a fortress town and was an important hub during the salt trade between Tibet and Nepal. Thorong La pass can be seen from the rooftops in the village, and at 5400m it is the highest pass in the world. Situated further up the valley is Muktinath at an altitude of 3710m at the base of the Thorong La mountain pass and the site of the Muktinath temple, a holy site that devotees flock to. The Hindu name for the temple is Chumig Gyatsa, meaning place of salvation. The Buddhist know it as Chumming Gyasta, which in Tibetan means Hundred Waters. It is an ancient sacred place for both Hindus and Buddhists. It is one of the most ancient temples of the Hindu God Vishnu and the Buddhist Dakinis goddesses known as Sky Dancers. Behind the temple is a semi-circular wall with 108 stone faucets which delivers ice-cold water diverted from the Kali Gantaki River. Pilgrims who visit the temple often stand beneath each of the spouts. The number 108 carries significance. In Hindu astrology, there are 12 zodiac (Rashi) and 9 planets (Graha) giving a total of 108 combinations. It is also one of the 24 celebrated Buddhist Tantric places. A number of optional side trips are included, taking us into Upper Mustang to view the 800 year old nunnery at Tiri. On the way back to Jomsom we detour to the village of Lupra, a small village deep in a quiet valley. At Lupra is the only Bon Gompa in the Annapurna area. The Bon religion predates Buddhism and coming from Tibet if influenced a lot of the Tibetan way of Buddhism. Above Lupra there is a good variety of rocks with Shaligrams (black ammonite fossils). These stones are use in the establishment of a Hindu temple of Vishnu anywhere in the world. The most suitable time to visit is March to May and October. In November and February it can be cold but it is still good travelling weather. December to January is for the diehard adventurers. We would be pleased to have you along on this remote wilderness adventure and introduce you to our way of life while your travel as part of my extended family Ang Tshering Sherpa Family business owner / manager

3 Keep Walking Nepal Daily movements Day 01 - Arrival transfer to Hotel in Kathmandu. Overnight hotel. Day 02 - fly to Pokhara: Half day site seeing. Overnight hotel. Day 03 fly to Jomsom (2700m), Travel to Kagbeni (2840m). Overnight lodge. Departing on an early flight from Pokhara, we fly to Jomsom. This 25min flight is along one of the most stunning valleys in Nepal. Jomsom Or Dzongsam meaning New Fort is the region s administrative headquarters and the main travel hub for Upper Mustang and Muktinath. Situated at 2700m, the Kali Gandaki River flows through the town. There is plenty of accommodation and good food available in Jomsom. The houses in the villages in this area are designed to protect the inhabitants from the strong winds that blow up the valley everyday from late morning onwards. These winds are caused by the differences in atmospheric pressure between the Tibetan Plateau and the lower reaches of the valley. Therefore flights are prevented from taking off from Jomsom after 11am. Following a hearty breakfast in Jomsom, we board our private jeep and travel to Kagbeni. The village is designed as a fortress town and was quite important during the salt trade between Tibet and Nepal. Kagbeni retains a medieval feel with narrow, covered flagstone alleys, antique chortens and large ochre monastery perched about the town. It lies on the confluence of the Kali Gandaki and Jhong Rivers. It is a fascinating village with closely packed mud brick houses and well worth taking the time to explore after lunch. The Thorong Las pass can be seen from the rooftops, and at 5400m it is the highest pass in the world. 4 things to do in Kagbeni: I. Wander the cobbled streets II. Visit the Red Monastery (Kag Chode Thupten Samphel Ling Monastery) built in There is a small entrance fee of 200NPR which helps towards its preservation. Being over 585 years old, this monastery provides a complete picture of how the construction of traditional Tibetan Buddhist monasteries were carried out in the past in the Mustang kingdom. III. Visit the now privately owned historic Red House Lodge which once had 108 rooms IV. Enjoy the scenery Day 04 Optional side trip to Tiri, travel to Muktinath. Overnight lodge. After breakfast there is the optional walking side trip to Tiri. This trip takes you into Upper Mustang (note since 2007 permits are not required to visit Tiri). It is approximately a 40min walk and home to an 800-year-old nunnery. From Kagbeni we cross the Kali Gandaki River on the bridge (opposite the Pilgrim Guesthouse) and head north. The trail improves after the avalanche scree just beyond the bridge. This is the summer route upriver taken only when the river is too high to ford. At other times it is possible to ford the river just down from the police check point. Returning to Kagbeni we pack up and travel by jeep to Muktinath, stopping at Jharkot for morning tea. We then proceed to Muktinath.

4 Muktinath is an ancient sacred place for both Hindus and Buddhists. The Hindus know it as Chumig Gyatsa Place of Salvation. It is one of the most ancient temples of the God Vishnu. Buddhists call Muktinath Chumming Gyasta, which in Tibetan means Hundred Waters. It is a sacred place of the Dakinis goddesses known as Sky Dancers, and is also one of the 24 celebrated Tantric places.it is situated at an altitude of 3710m at the base of the Thorong La mountain pass in the Mustang district. It is approx. 18kms NE from Jomsom. After lunch we will visit the temple complex. In early September there is the annual horse race known as Yartung. A week of serious horse racing Tibetan style. Day 05 Optional walk to Jharkot, travel to exit point, walk to Lupra. Overnight lodge. In the morning we pack up the jeep and those who want to stretch their legs can walk down to Jharkot, enjoying the beautiful scenery back down the valley. A quick cuppa and we travel by jeep down to the trail exit point. We then walk to Lupra approx. 2.5hrs. When walking to Lupra, at the base of the river before crossing to the Lupra side, is a cave approximately 50m up. This cave is used for long-term meditation ranging from 30 days to 6 months. There is a balcony with a seating area for meditation, a small cooking area and sleeping quarters. In Lupra you will find the only Bon Gompa of the Annapurna region. The Bon religion predates Buddhism. If the temple is locked ask one of the villagers if they will open it for viewing. The old Bon religion comes from Tibet and influenced a lot of the Tibetan way of Buddhism. Bon turn their prayer wheels anticlockwise and walk around the stupa anticlockwise. Above Lupra there is a good variety of rocks with Shaligrams (black ammonite fossils). These stones are use in the establishment of a temple of Vishnu anywhere in the world. Day 06 Walk to Eklaibhatti, optional side trip to Raja Picnic Ground, travel to Jomsom. Overnight hotel. We start the day with a 40min walk along the river back to Eklaibhatti. It is an opportunity to pick over the interesting rocks that can be found along the riverbed. At Eklaibhatti we have the option of crossing the long suspension bridge over the Kali Gandaki River and visiting the Raja Picnic Ground. We walk west to Pilling a lovely agricultural village with traditional flat roofs and white prayer flags. Walking onto Palak and take a rest outside of the lovely Gompa painted with lions or conch shells. We then walk onto Dhakarjhong, walking along the waterway to the Rajas Picnic Grounds. Taking the upper path (rather than descending to the new jeep path) and walking for 20 mins through beautiful alpine flowers. Walking steadily uphill you come to a sheer cliff with silk kharta scarves in a tree. From here 15mins further on is a chorten and stairs up to a cave. Inside the cave are pictures of the Dalai Lama and others. On the weekends the caves can be filled with picnicers. From the cave you can see huge waterfalls high up on the steep rock faces. Down the valley is views of Niligiri. The scramble back down takes 1hr to Dhakarjhong and we make our way back to Eklaibhatti to our waiting jeep and travel the short distance to Jomsom.Note: in the afternoon there is a strong wind when walking down the valley to Jomsom. Most walkers try to be back in Jomsom by lunchtime. An alternative option is to walk from Lupra to Jomsom or travel by jeep, spending the rest of the day in Jomsom at leisure.
