ヒマラヤの峡谷・トップ20

Respect for the people who built this road. And respect for the people who use it.

Before the final climb to the 'Taktsang Palphug Monastery', the path leads down steps into a rock cut. Here, a 100-meter-high waterfall falls deep into the gorge.

On the way you will find this huge waterfall and many small places of worship.

One must overcome a steep step to reach the hamlet of Tal on the Marsyangdi River in Manang District. Above the escarpment the valley opens. The river has deposited alluvial material here before it breaks through the narrow section and drops steeply.

The hamlet of Tal is located on the upper reaches of the Marsyangdi River in Manang District on the border with Lamjung. After a steep step the valley opens; the river has deposited alluvial material before it breaks through the narrow section and drops steeply.

In this place it is possible to admire the valley of the Kali Ghandaki river, splendid even when the river is dry.

The road connecting Chame and Pisang is an engineering jewel. In fact, the road, which passes near the Marsyangdi River, was carved into the rock.

The 'Landslide Area' is an area of possible landslides. In this part you have to be very careful, and it is advisable to walk these twenty minutes in a group or with a guide. In fact, especially in the late afternoon there is the possibility that some stones may fall onto the path. In this section you must walk with a brisk and confident pace.
