Nepal’s remote Mustang Region is set to impress, enthral and enchant, and the most intimate way to experience it all is by strapping on your boots and hiking through these distant mountain wilds. It’s no exaggeration that life here hasn’t changed in hundreds of years, as this isolated enclave of hidden villages and formidable hills, near Tibet, was a separate kingdom altogether until as late as the 1950s.

Trekking in Mustang is nothing short of an honour, one that will see you observe an ancient way of life, discover barren hills and far-flung valleys, and walk the scenic banks of Nepal’s Kaligandaki River too.
