Continue your trek through a beautiful alpine forest. The path becomes steeper as you approach the village of Lho, where you can enjoy views of the surrounding mountains.
After passing the village of Lho, trek further through beautiful valleys and arrive at Samagaon, a village at the base of Mount Manaslu. The area offers stunning views of the surrounding peaks.
