We then follow the trail to Nauli Khola, crossing a suspension bridge and then alongside the Budi Gandaki River before coming to Machha Khola (900m), a place where many trekkers were stranded after the earthquake in 2015 and had to be rescued.

      This morning we begin our climb to Larkya La Pass, a trail that offers fantastic views of Manaslu and the Syacha Glacier. It is possible you will see Himalayan blue sheep on the trail. This is as high as we venture today without risking possible altitude sickness. This is also the last safe haven before reaching the pass. This leg of the trek is often subject to snowfall between mid - December to mid -March when snow frequently blocks passage through Larkya La Pass. Samdo Lodge is generally closed in winter months. Your guide will know beforehand if the lodge is in fact closed.
