MUSTANG COLORS (7 days)
Thanks to the
flight on Jomsom (2713m) with the
doors of Mustang, this short and easy excursion gathers all
diversities of the 3 weeks routes. Each day is crowned of a “key
period”; we start with villages and monasteries typically
Tibetans
high Mustang in desert landscapes
and
it is then
of Muktinath (3800m) which
we have an overall picture on the valleys ochres and green of
Mustang with in backdrop the massif of Dhaulagiri (8167m)
and Nilgiri (7061m). We go down from Muktinath, place crowned of
the Hindus and the Buddhists by crossing pilgrims of all
horizons. The valley of Kali-Gandaki, between Dhaulagiri and
Annapurna I, inhabited by the Thakali ethnos group (commercial
of salt) leads us until Poonhill before going down again by the
forests and the terraces of the Gurung country until Pokhara,
vis-a-vis southern Annapurna (7219m) and in Machapuchare.
