Overview

Limi Valley trek is one of the most adventure and less touristic treks in Nepal. Limi valley trek lies in the north west region of Nepal. In Limi valley trek, one can observe the original culture and tradition of Tibet which is still well preserved. You can visit very old monastries and chortens.

During this trek, the tourists can see herd of bluesheep and mountain eagle and snow leopard some time. As very few tourists visit this place, the local people of upper Humla warmly welcome the tourists. This trek starts from Simikot, the head quarters of Humla district. The trail leads along the Karmnali River which comes from Tibet’s Lake Manasarover. Mansarover is the most sacred and respected holy Lake in Tibet. Each year hundred thousands of pilgrimages visit it. The landscape, buckwheat, and barely plants in the fields are worth to see there. The traditional jointed houses in the village are amazing. One can feel of being in new planet upon arrival to Limi valley.
