Eight Dragons Mountain Hiking

We had another great day of hiking with the Kangs this past Sunday, April 2, 2011. We went hiking on a collection of mountains called Eight Dragons Mountain, which has a concealed lake hidden within the mountains. We were accompanied by Choi's parents again, who actually initiated this hike as well. They live in Masan and have hiked this mountain numerous times. Unfortunately, the wind and cloud-cover made for a bit of a brisk hike at times, but for all in all it was a great day that resulted in many sore muscles :)

    Manaslu Tea House Trek
    Manaslu Circuit Tea House Trek it lies in extremely remote Manaslu Region on Nepal in Gorkha District. Considering its poor infrastructure Nepal Tourism Board had declared it as restricted area trekking of Nepal. Few years ago only camping trekking was possible in Manaslu region but now days because of establishment of few tea houses on the trail there arises the possibility for tea house trekking in Manaslu Circuit. However it is still in restricted area trekking which means no foreigner trekker can access Manaslu circuit without our government authorized guides and other team member. NEST Nepal Explore Summit Treks is the most leading Trekking company for the Manaslu Trekking Region.
