Muktinath is a pilgrimage
center for Buddhist and Hindus. The shrines include
a Buddhist Gompa and the Vishnu temple Jwala Mai. An
old temple nearby shelter spring and natural gas jets,
which provide Muktinath with the famous eternal flame.
Jomsom is the only place along the Annapurna circuit,
which is connected by air with Pokhara and Kathmandu.
It is also the district headquarters of Mustang, which
includes part of the legendary Mustang and the Muktinath
Region. Trekking to Muktinath begins from Jomsom. Our
trails will be easy to go to along the Kali Gandaki
River beyond Annapurna and Dhaulagiri Himal. The trail
passes through ridges between Modikhola & Kali Gandaki
offering sharp changes in lands scape, vegetation culture
and stunning views when reach to village of Kagbeni,
a Tibetan influenced settlement close to Lo-Manthang,
the capital of what use to be the old principality of
Mustang. From Kagbeni village the trail climbs steeply
to rejoin the regular trial before Khingar is reached.
A further climb brings you to Jharkot then Ranipauwa,
the accommodation area of Muktinath (3,710m.), where
we can see most impressive views of Mt. Dhaulagiri,
Tukche peak, Thapa peak, Dhampus Peak, Nilgiri north
