Introduction

Manang Motorcycle Adventure, 11 days tour is pretty similar to the Mustang, but the riding is more difficult than the Mustang. Manang is a Himalayan town situated in the broad valley of the Marshyandi River to the north of the Annapurna mountain range in the Manang District of Nepal. The altitude of this town is 3519 metres (11,545 ft) above sea level. To the west, the 5416 metre (17,769 ft) Thorung La Pass leads to Muktinath Shrine and the valley of the Gandaki River. To the north, there is the Chulu East peak at 6,584 meters (21,601 ft). In Manang, there is a medical centre, which specializes in high altitude sickness.
