Fly to Jomsom (2,700m) and further hike to Kagbeni (2800m).
Catch an early flight to Jomsom. After taking some rest, hike towards the north region, Kagbeni. The routes crossing have hanging bridges following the Kali Gandaki River. The trails followed are deserts covered with sand and rock through the surrounding peaks of Dhaulagiri (8167m), Tukuche (6920m), Nilgiri (6987m) and Annapurna ranges. Kagbeni is a beautiful village of residential traders who have been a link in the supply of foods & essentials between Mustang and the land of Lo-Manthang and the rest of Nepal. The Nilgiri view is the first mountain, which can be encountered while arriving in Kagbeni from the south. The trail goes to the widening path in the north, crossing endless stretches of sand pebbles and boulders.
Day 5
Trek to Chele (3,050m).
Trek steeply in the upward direction into the jumble gullies and small towers, zigzagging to a viewpoint over Kagbeni with Nilgiri providing a dazzling white dewy backdrop from the Kagbeni check post. The trail keeps to the east bank of Kali Gandaki River, climbing and descending. Lunch is taken at Tange village (first village) from Kagbeni. It is a Mongolian village where inhabitants are a mixture of Gurung, Thakali and some families from the land of Lo. From Tanbe, the trail again climbs to a higher point around 3100 m. The trail then drops steeply and undulates along the east bank of Kali Gandaki for 1-½ hours to the village of Chhuksang. From Chhuksang, we can see Chele. After a short walk along the riverbank, there is a solid bridge across the Kali Gandaki at the point where it tunnels. Its way is under a vast block of red sandstone. From here, it is a short sharp climb to Chele, which is about 3 hours walk.
Day 6
Trek to Syangmochen (3,800m).
Trek to the village of Ghyakar with a view in the south that offers a panorama of Nilgiri, Tilicho peak and Yakawa Kang, the peak that dominates the Thorongla Pass on the Annapurna circuit. To the Far East direction, the range of Damodar Danda is fairly visible. From the pass it is a short descent to Samar, a pleasant settlement in a grove of willows with good running water in irrigation channels. We get Samar village after 3 hours from Chele. It is our lunch place. After leaving Samar, the trail dives steeply for about 70 m into a deep side canyon. Inevitably it is a short steep climb out and after a brief respite. It then dives again into another side canyon. This second climb is steeper and longer. After about 2 hours walk from Samar, the trail reaches 3750 m and descends slightly to the first teahouse. The second tea houses can be seen in the distance, but once more the trails dives into another steep canyon and it will take a further hour to reach it. This place is known as Ekle Bhatti. This is our camping Lodge for the night.
Day 7
Trek to Ghami (3,520m).
Climb gently to a small pass at 3870m with views directly upon the deep eroded canyons, which is one of the most beautiful cave monasteries. About 2 hours walk from camp, is the teashop of Syangmochen, another possible camp area. After gentle climb levels, out to a Chorten (3700m. 2 hours) and then there is a first view of Geling village (3500m). From here, the path descends gradually into another less severe gully and climbs out to a collection of houses. We stop over for lunch. From the lunch spot, the trail continues round above Geling village and starts the long climb to the Nyi pass at 3950m. A long descent, out of the wind, takes us down more steeply to Ghami.
Day 8
Trek to Tsarang (3,560m).
From the Gompa in Ghami, two tracks level down into a gully east of the village, one steeply past a trio of red, black and white Chorten that are a common sight in upper Mustang. At the bottom of the gully are two bridges across the river; there is a direct path to this point not visiting Ghami. The trail climbs onto a gently sloping plateau and passes beside a very long wall. About 1/2 hour from Ghami, from the end of the wall, the trail heads east away from a very dramatic red eroded canyon towering above the village of Tramar climbing steadily at an altitude of 3770 m. The descent to Tsarang is mostly gentle and completed in a further trek of 2 hours.

Trek starts from Surkhang-Lori Gumba-Yara Gang and back to Surkhang.
Day 15
Trek to Tange village (3,240m).
From Surkhang, we need to cross a river from Damodar Kunda, one of the sacred lakes. There is no bridge on the Ghechang River, so we need to walk across the river in bare feet. After crossing the river, the trail climbs up above a pass of 3850m. The trail goes through grasslands and treeless bare hills. After the pass, the trail drops directly to Tange village at an elevation of 3240m. Tange is a small village with around 30 houses with most of the houses attached to each other. On the roofs, one can see piles of dry woods, which are a reflection of the prosperity in their society.
