Nepal’s Restricted Area Region is home to some of the most remote and culturally rich trekking routes. These areas require special permits to preserve their unique environment and traditions. The trails pass through untouched landscapes, ancient monasteries, and Tibetan-influenced villages. Trekkers can explore high-altitude deserts, deep valleys, and stunning mountain views while experiencing the spiritual and historical significance of these regions.
Treks in this region include the Upper Dolpo Trek, which takes travelers to Shey Gompa (The Crystal Monastery), and the Lower Dolpo & Phoksundo Lake Trek, which features Nepal’s deepest lake. Another famous route is the Upper Mustang Trek, leading to the ancient kingdom of Lo Manthang. For those interested in Buddhism and Himalayan culture, the Tsum Valley Trek and Nar-Phu Valley Trek offer incredible insights into traditional Tibetan lifestyles.
These treks provide an unforgettable adventure through Nepal’s most protected and culturally significant regions.
