To go there, you need to reach Pokhara by flight from Kathmandu, or by bus in a long way through the Prithvi Highway (from 6 to 8 hours, it costs no more than 12$). Then you can go to Jomsom by jeep or by flight (20 minutes) or walking for 3 days. Jomsom is the starting point to explore Lo’s Kingdom.

If you have good breath you can come back from Lo Mantang to Jomsom in another way, walking through Marang, the remotes villages of Tange and Tetang, then down to Muktinath. Choosing this option you can change a little bit the landscapes
