That said independent trekkers are not allowed in Manaslu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The government rules also state there must be a minimum of two trekkers in a group. They also need to be accompanied by a local guide for the Manaslu trek circuit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, your permit must be processed through a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nepalindependentguide.com\/activities\/manaslu-trekking-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">registered agency<\/a>. Freelance guides cannot issue the necessary permits for this trek.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Three different permits are required for the trek, and an additional one for Tsum Valley, should you decide to merge the two treks into one big one:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1.

Once you cross the village of Sama you need another entry permit (ACAP).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The price for the Manaslu RAP depends on the number of days you spend between Jagat and Dharapani. The last checkpoint for RAP is in Sama Gaun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.highcampadventure.com\/blog\/manaslu-circuit-trek-cost\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Manaslu RAP Cost:<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>September to November: USD 100 per person for the first seven days and an additional USD 15 per person per day from the eighth day onwards.<\/li><li>December to August: USD 75 per person for the first seven days and an additional USD 10 per person per day from the eighth day onwards.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>You do not need a printed photograph for the Manaslu RAP, as it will be uploaded online and will be printed on the permit itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Manaslu Conservation Area Project (MCAP Permit)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This Manaslu Nepal trek permit is required from Philim, where the<a href=\"https:\/\/ntnc.org.np\/project\/manaslu-conservation-area-project-mcap\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\"> Manaslu Conversation Area<\/a> starts.

Annapurna Conservation Area Project (ACAP Permit)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This trekking in the Manaslu circuit requires a trekking permit from Dharapani until you exit ACAP in Beshi Sahar. The price is the same throughout the year: USD 30 per person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is no restriction or change in price with a change in the number of days you spend inside ACAP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Similar to MCAP, a printed photograph is required for the <a href=\"https:\/\/ntnc.org.np\/project\/annapurna-conservation-area-project-acap\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">ACAP permit<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After obtaining the RAP and these two conservation areas entry permits, there is no need to obtain a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.satoriadventuresnepal.com\/tims-cards.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">TIMS (Trekkers Information Management System) card.<\/a> This card is mandatory when planning to trek the Annapurna Circuit from Dharapani during your Manaslu Nepal trek.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">FAQs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\"><div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1656409429699\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Do I need a visa to travel to Nepal?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Ans: Yes, you need a visa to travel to Nepal.
