Dhaulagiri, Nilgiri and Annapurna I
The valley runs between Dhaulagiri (8,167 m) and Annapurna I (8,091 m), with Nilgiri close by. Lete and neighbouring Kalopani are among the few places on the Circuit with a view of Annapurna I.
Beyond the resort
Your base in Mustang
Lete sits on the Beni–Jomsom road, with some of Nepal's best-known places a drive away. It is also a handy stop for self-driving visitors, a growing group in Mustang.
Kalopani and Ghasa
Next-door villages on the same road. Kalopani lies just north of Lete and the two have grown into one settlement. Ghasa is to the south.
Annapurna Circuit
One of the world's best-known trekking routes passes through this region.
Upper Mustang and Lo Manthang
The old walled kingdom in the north. Upper Mustang is a restricted area that needs a special permit, so arrange it through a trekking agency.
Muktinath
A famous temple and pilgrimage site, roughly 20 km from Jomsom by road.
Kagbeni
A village where the Kali Gandaki meets another river, on the road towards Lo Manthang.
Jomsom
The district centre of Lower Mustang, with the airport and a long bazaar.
Marpha
A neat village in the Thak Khola valley, known for its apple orchards.
Tatopani
South of Lete on the same valley road, known for its natural hot springs. It is roughly 25 to 30 km by road.
Kali Gandaki Gorge
Often described as one of the deepest gorges in the world, with Dhaulagiri and Annapurna above it.
Know before you go
Lete is at roughly 2,400 to 2,500 metres. Pack warm layers for the evenings in every season. If you continue to Muktinath (around 3,800 m), allow time to adjust. Ask the resort about payment methods and mobile coverage before you travel.
When to come
| Spring (March to May) | Popular for trekking and clear mountain views. |
|---|---|
| Monsoon (June to August) | Mustang sits in the rain shadow, so it stays drier than most of Nepal, but landslides can close the road. |
| Autumn (mid-September to mid-November) | The time Nepal tourism information recommends for Mustang. |
| Winter (December to February) | Cold, with snow on the peaks. Ask the resort about conditions before you come. |
