# 1.ย It is surrounded by snowcap mountains towering at above 8,000m. Not to mention the above 5,000m pass crossing! Very few places on this earth will have these combinations!
# 2.ย It is a remote and off-the-beaten-path compared to the other well-known teahouse treks in Nepal. Manaslu trek gained popularity since tea houses were built in 2010. Prior to that, you had to camp.
#3.ย It is not as crowded as other popular trails in Nepal.Less than 8,000 tourist visits Manaslu every year while Everest Base Camp (EBC) Trek has over 30,000 visitors annually.
# 4.ย It is relatively cheaper than EBC. You don't have to spend more than $320 alone on a flight ticket to Lukla.
# 5.ย It is rich in culture. The Tibetan-origin Nepalese live hereย and practice their own ancient form of dialect, culture and religion.
# 6.ย Manaslu trek offers more side-trips than any other trail. You can spend more than 3 weeks and venture into different places such as, Manaslu Base Camp, Pungeen Gomba, Tibetian border, Birendra lake.
# 7. Because it follows a circuit trail, every day is a new route as you make a loop in this trek.
# 8. Because it is generally safer. There is a lower chance of altitude sickness due to the long days of reaching high elevation and side trips.
# 9. Part of "The Great Himalayan Trail". Manaslu is one of the major parts of "The Great Himalaya Trail".ย ย
# 10.ย It is an adventure.ย In 2003, the Manaslu peak hadย 240 successful ascents and 52 fatalities, making it the 4th most dangerous 8000m+ peak (after Annapurna, Nanga Parbat, and K2).
