点评:I recently completed a 7-day Lower Manaslu Trek with my 10-year-old brother, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. The trek was organized from Kathmandu by Touch The Himalaya (Madan), and we were guided by Moti from Manaslu Guides Nepal, who picked us up in Arkhet Bazaar.
Unlike the regular Manaslu Circuit, we followed a completely different and less-traveled route, which gave us a deeper glimpse into the authentic countryside and culture of Nepal. On the first night, we stayed at Moti’s home in the charming village of Lapudanda, where we spent two nights. This gave us the unique opportunity to experience the warm hospitality, culture, and daily life of a typical Nepali village.
From Lapudanda, we trekked through beautiful and peaceful trails, passing through Yarsha Village, Kasigaun, and Kerauja. These upper-route villages offered stunning views and meaningful interactions with local people. After reaching Kerauja, we briefly joined the main Manaslu trail but stayed outside the restricted zone, which meant we didn’t need special permits.
For our return, we took a different scenic trail through the iconic villages of Laprak and Barpak—both rich in natural beauty and cultural heritage.
This trek far exceeded our expectations. It was the perfect blend of nature, culture, and local life, and it was especially suitable for families or those looking for an off-the-beaten-path adventure. I highly recommend the Lower Manaslu Trek to anyone who wants to see the real Nepal. Choosing a company like Touch The Himalaya, which works with native guides like Moti from the Manaslu region, made all the difference.
翻译:我最近和10岁的弟弟完成了为期7天的马纳斯鲁峰下段徒步之旅,这真是一次难忘的经历。这次徒步之旅由“触摸喜马拉雅”(Touch The Himalaya,简称“马丹”)组织,从加德满都出发,由尼泊尔马纳斯鲁峰向导公司(Manaslu Guides Nepal)的Moti担任向导,他在Arkhet Bazaar接我们。
与常规的马纳斯鲁峰环线不同,我们选择了一条截然不同、人迹罕至的路线,这让我们更深入地了解了尼泊尔原汁原味的乡村风情和文化。第一晚,我们住在Moti位于迷人的拉普丹达村(Lapudanda)的家中,并在那里住了两晚。这让我们有机会体验到尼泊尔村庄的热情好客、丰富的文化和日常生活。
从拉普丹达出发,我们沿着美丽宁静的小径徒步,途经亚尔沙村(Yarsha)、卡西冈村(Kasigaun)和凯劳贾村(Kerauja)。这些位于上段的村庄景色优美,与当地居民进行了有意义的互动。到达凯劳贾(Kerauja)后,我们短暂地回到了马纳斯鲁峰的主干道,但并未进入禁区,这意味着我们不需要特殊通行证。
回程时,我们选择了一条不同的风景路线,途经标志性的拉普拉克(Laprak)和巴帕克(Barpak)村落——这两个村庄都拥有丰富的自然美景和文化遗产。
这次徒步远超我们的预期。它完美地融合了自然、文化和当地生活,尤其适合家庭出游或寻求非同寻常的探险体验的游客。我强烈推荐下马纳斯鲁峰徒步路线给所有想要探索真实尼泊尔的人。选择像Touch The Himalaya这样的公司,他们与像Moti这样来自马纳斯鲁峰地区的本地向导合作,这让我们的选择更加与众不同。
