Muktinath Jeep Tour

Have you ever thought of travelling to a place in the mountains where clouds float above you? Imagine standing at 3,800 meters in the Himalayas, surrounded by snow-covered mountains, and witnessing water flow from 108 stone spouts that are thought to be able to atone for all of your sins. For hundreds of years, both Buddhists and Hindus have visited Muktinath, a temple perched on the edge of the globe.Tucked up in the isolated Muktinath Temple in Mustang Valley is unique.

Introduction of Muktinath Temple

Muktinath Temple is  situated in the Mustang District of Nepal at an elevation of roughly 3,800 meters (12,342 ft) above sea level. It is located in the upper part of the Kali Gandaki valley, directly beneath the Thorong La pass. This location has a long history, dating back over a thousand years and being intertwined into both Hindu and Buddhist traditions.

For Hindus, Muktinath is one of the 108 Divya Desams, the most important sanctuaries dedicated to Vishnu worship. It also has the distinction of being a Svayam Vyakta Kshetra, a location where the deity showed itself without human intervention. According to Buddhist tradition, the place is associated with Guru Rinpoche (Padmasambhava), the fabled 8th-century guru who introduced Buddhism to Tibet. He is claimed to have meditated here throughout his travel.

Muktinath Temple is designed in the typical Nepalese pagoda architecture. The main shrine features wonderfully crafted wooden embellishments that have withstood harsh mountain weather for generations. Within this central shrine is a golden-plated statue of Vishnu. Interestingly, Buddhist visitors recognise this statue as Avalokiteśvara, their generous divinity.

Here’s what everyone remembers is the 108 water spouts known as Mukti Dhara. They create a semicircle behind the main temple, and pilgrims walk through, letting the chilly water shower them from each spout.

The trip to Mustang – Muktinath has never been easy because of the rough roads from Pokhara to Muktinath and the ever-changing snowy mountain weather. Muktinath Temple can be reached via hard dirt roads from Beni in the south, or by hiking from the east or north, passing Thorong-La Pass Mountain at 5416 meters.
