Upper Mustang trekking in Nepal was officially opened in 1992. Particularly limited numbers of trekkers are only allowed each year with limited time because of protecting and conserving the local Tibetan tradition and the fragile environment.  Upper Mustang trekking is one of the best treks to do even in the monsoon season in Nepal. We can do trekking and jeep tour both now. The best advantage of doing this cultural trek in monsoon time is that the village are full of local people busy at their everyday works. Furthermore, the whole region are in bloom which makes really a fabulous contrast with the wind-eroded hills, red cliffs and snow-capped mountains on the background. Thus upper Mustang trek is once in a lifetime destination to explore the Tibetan kingdom of Lo-Manthang.
