Over the next 5 days, you gain height passing through Koto (8350ft), Meta (11679ft) and Kyang (12532ft) emerging from the forest onto the mountains that adorn Lower Mustang. On a route punctuated with undisturbed religious sites, you travel through ancient villages which embody the traditions of yak herding, trading, and harvesting medicinal herbs.
