Overview

Just imagine standing in a forbidden kingdom that was once home to some of the biggest rulers of Tibet. Does sound fascinating. In the case of Upper Mustang Trek, the case is the same. Upper Mustang trek with a drive back is an opportunity to explore.

An opportunity that takes the Roving Nepal Trek team into the rich history and culture. This is an easy-to-moderate trek in the list of all other treks at Roving Nepal Trek. But there is much more to know and admire.

How hard is Upper Mustang Trek with drive back

No trek is easy and no trek is hard. All of it depends mainly on the physical fitness and mindset of the trek. As we know the Upper Mustang Trek hovers around the 4000m mark it shouldn't be that hard.

You will need to be in good medical condition to complete the trek. There aren't any acclimatization issues while some might feel heavy which is common. People with any physical abilities can complete the trek.

From deep valleys to peaks and forests to ancient civilization, Upper Mustang Trek is a combination of every aspect of Nepal. So just connect with Roving Nepal Trek, book the package, and feel the difference.

Best Time to do Upper Mustang Trek

Any trek in Nepal is best when done in the most beautiful weather. When we talk about the most beautiful time, it is spring and autumn in Nepal. Most of the trek booking takes place during these two seasons.

In spring and autumn season the weather remains absolutely beautiful with clear blue skies. Trekkers will also have an opportunity to view the actual beauty of mountains that lie along the way.

The ultimate joy of trekking Upper Mustang comes in autumn according to Roving Nepal Trek. Although every season has its own uniqueness the difficulty of the trek gets higher during winter and rainy seasons.

Food and Accommodations During Upper Mustang Trek

The food and accommodation facility during your stay in Nepal for 14 days Upper Mustang Trek will be a mixed bag. When the Roving Nepal Trek team is at Pokhara, Kathmandu you will be staying at the most luxurious hotels.

But things change during the trekking journey. From tea houses to lodges, the accommodation facility will be the best one out of the available ones. Clean rooms, comfortable beds, and warm blankets the accommodation won't be a problem.

Along with the better accommodation, you will also receive warm hospitality and the welcoming nature of the people which is the key.

Similarly talking about the food, trekkers will find a variety of food. From the authentic local cuisine in Upper Mustang to variety during the Kathmandu and Pokhara stay, the food ain't a problem.

The diet is carefully planned by the Roving Nepal Trek team which is nutritious, healthy, and helps you during the overall trek. It will be a balanced diet for better recovery strength and stamina.

Permits Required for Upper Mustang Trek with drive-back

Some specific permits will be needed for the completion of the Upper Mustang Trek. But don't worry Roving Nepal Trek will arrange all the trekking permits for our guests.

It won't be necessary for you to stand out of offices to get the permits right. We have got you covered. Meanwhile, two of the major permits will be required.

The first one is the Trekkers Information Management System (TIMS) card. Secondly, you will need to get hold of the Annapurna Area Conservation Project (ACAP) permit.

As the trekking team will cross through Jomsom we will enter into the Annapurna region so a second permit is necessary. For solo trekkers, you can get both the permits from Nepal Tourism Board.

Cost of Upper Mustang Trek with Drive Back

The accurate cost of Upper Mustang Trek with drive-back is impossible to calculate. As the Roving Nepal Trek team will spend time in Kathmandu and Pokhara, the quality of services demanded by our guests could be majorly different.

So based on the quality of the rooms, the services and the private features the cost can be highly changeable. Meanwhile, during the stay in Upper Mustang or even on the trail, it could be different too.

Making it clear to the readers about the exact cost of the trek can be very hard. Therefore connect with Roving Nepal Trek as we can help you choose the right package.

Not only that we customize the Upper Mustang trek package which could fit your budget. Similarly, we will also guide you right through how your journey of 14 days will be. Readers can connect through numbers, and websites or visit our office as well.
