Upper Mustang is popular as the last Forbidden Kingdom. This virgin land is located to the north of Nepal. The windiest and driest treeless plains are situated to the north of Nepal. The jaw dropping views of Dhaulagiri, Annapurna range, Nilgiri and other beautiful peaks have made Upper Mustang Trek the majestic joyous ride. This Himalayan kingdom within the Republic Nepal was forbidden until 1992 but these days government of Nepal allows the limited tourism and requires the special permission.In a sophisticated four wheel drive we start journey from Kathmandu. The quick passing by of the remote houses and the trees along the road enthrall you. The expert and local guide of the Himalayan Magic Treks team would stop and showcase you the unique water mill and the authentic Thakali settlement. The fear of altitude sickness might occur since it would be a jeep ride and the altitude changes quickly. For mitigating such fear Himalayan Magic Treks team is equipped with all the measures to tackle with that.

The magnificent hot springs in Tatopani and the gigantic Rupse water fall near Ghasa would remind you of the amazing fairyland in the Earth. As the jeep ascend further north passing by the beautiful local villages like Marpha, Tukuche and Jomsom, there comes the mystic and holy Muktinath temple. Equally worshipped and respected by Hindu Followers and Buddhist followers shows the symbol of harmony in this part of Nepal. Upon the visit of Muktinath the jeep drive take you to the Kaligandaki Bank side small Tibetan influenced settlement called Kagbeni
