      Samagaun village means village situated in the wide open space. This village is comparatively bigger than other we have passed. Village is nice to see from distance. Main motto of this day is to hike higher and sleep lower so as to acclimatize our body for the pass. We do the same, hike up to Birendra Lake or all the way to Manaslu Base Camp and acclimatize.

      Nepalgram tries to find new places to hike around, so far we found a hiking trail toward Yak shed at 1.5 hours away from the village and get into the peace and wilderness. To watch birds, herd of blue sheep and deer on the way is wild enough for Manaslu Circuit trek. Apart from the wilds, we will see yaks grazing all over the meadow; do not tease them, follow your guideโ€™s instruction. If you like glacial lake, choose Birendra lake hiking as day activity; choose Manaslu Base camp if you want to do hardcore trek, or choose hike to monastery or to yak shed if you want solitude. Believe it or not, This choice will make your Manaslu Circuit trek a best trek.

      Believe it, this is a great day you hiked ever, hard but lifetime memorable. Interesting thing about this pass is, views of the mountain before and after the pass are not comparable to any other landscape you have seen. Scenery gets even better with high mountains and deep glaciers on the other side of the pass.
