Manaslu (8156 m), situated in the west-central part of Nepal, is the eight highest mountain in the world. The name is derived from the Sanskrit word Manasa which means “intellect” or “Soul”.
Japanese climbers Toshio Imanishi and Gyalzen Norbu were the first to climb this mountain in 1956. Since then this mountain has been regarded as a Japanese mountain.
The region offers a variety of trekking options. But the most popular among them is the Manaslu circuit trek. It is a 15 days trip covering a trail of around 160 km. It is geographically spectacular, culturally fascinating and provides awesome mountain scenery.
This trek starts from Arughat. It follows the ancient salt-trading route along the Budhi Gandaki river to Nupri, a valley of Tibetan people. Then it goes around the Manaslu massif over the Larkya La Pass (5235 m). Finally, it goes down to the famous Annapurna circuit trail.
The Manaslu trek trail is rough, steep and it often literally hangs on a bluff high above the river.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
