Overview

The Jomsom is a modern town and the ancient salt trader 'Thakali' homeland. People here are of Tibetan origin but have their own language and customs. We take a scenic flight from Pokhara to Jomsom, and we start our tour ride through a popular trekking trail that leads us to many different wonderful villages rich in cultural and architectural points of view, to a special religious place - Muktinath.
