Trip Information

Muktinath is a sacred pilgrimage site for both Hindus and Buddhists, located at an altitude of 3,710 meters in the Mustang region of Nepal. Muktinath Pony Trekking is an excellent way to explore this region, as it offers a unique perspective on the culture, history, and natural beauty of the area.

The trek starts in the town of Jomsom, which is easily accessible by air or road from Pokhara. From there, you will ride on a pony or horseback through the Kali Gandaki River valley towards the village of Kagbeni. Along the way, you will pass through traditional villages, barren landscapes, and stunning mountain views of Dhaulagiri and Nilgiri.

After Kagbeni, the trail follows the banks of the Kali Gandaki River to the village of Muktinath. This village is famous for its ancient temple, which is sacred to both Hindus and Buddhists. The temple is dedicated to Lord Vishnu and has 108 stone taps that pour out holy water. The surrounding area is also home to many other religious sites, including monasteries, chortens, and gompas.

The Muktinath Pony Trek is a relatively easy trek that is suitable for anyone with a reasonable level of fitness. It is ideal for those who want to experience trekking in the Himalayas without the challenges of high-altitude trekking. The trek takes around 5-7 days, and accommodation is available in teahouses and lodges along the way.

The best time to do the Muktinath Pony Trek is during the spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November) when the weather is clear, and the views are stunning. However, it is possible to do the trek year-round, although winter trekking can be challenging due to the cold temperatures and snow.

Overall, the Muktinath Pony Trek is a unique and memorable way to explore the Mustang region of Nepal and experience the cultural and natural beauty of the area.
