Yes, permits are obligatory for the trek to Jomsom-Muktinath. Annapurna Conservation Area permit (ACAP) and Trekkers Information Management System (TIMS) card are the necessary permits for the Jomsom-Muktinath trek. As the trek is within the Annapurna region, ACAP is mandatory. Likewise, TIMS is essential because every trekking destination requires that permit.
As visiting Muktinath is possible throughout the year, selecting the ideal time depends on personal preference and what visitors are willing to experience. However, Spring, Autumn, and Summer are best for visiting Muktinath due to pleasant weather. Also, if travelers want to experience the cultural beauty of Muktinath, September is ideal for a visit, as Janai Purnima falls during the month.
Jomsom-Muktinath is a Lower Mustang in a Mustang District in the Dhaulagiri Zone. The region lies in northern Nepal, which differs from Upper Mustang. From Kagbeni village, the Upper Mustang and Lower Mustang diverge.

Pleasing journey on Jomsom Muktinath trek
I had a fantastic nine-day trekking journey on the Jomsom Muktinath trek with my loved ones. Our group trio constantly explores the world, and last May, we came to Nepal to experience its beauty. We had already done the pre-booking with Boundless Adventure for our Jomsom Muktinath trekking. On our arrival, the team of Boundless Adventure picked up from the International Airport of Kathmandu; in the evening, guides came to our hotel to meet us and to provide details of the journey. Mr.Dambar called us during the tour and asked how everything was going. We are delighted with Boundless Adventure’s service.
Moreover, the trip was equally pleasing. The sunrise view from Poon Hill, relaxing bath at a hot spring, and mesmerizing range of Annapurna, Dhaulagiri, and Nilgiri were breathtaking. We can’t wait to revisit Nepal and experience its beauty with our favorite partner, Boundless Adventure.

Incredible experience
Trekking in Jomsom Muktinath with Boundless Adventure was an incredible experience. The trek was a unique combination of nature’s untouched beauty, cultural interactions, and jaw-dropping views from every turn. The view from deep valleys to high mountain passes was stunning. The trek was well-organized by the Boundless Adventure team. Boundless Adventure’s members fulfilled their responsibilities calmly and smoothly while ensuring our safety and comfort.
The guides and porter were attentive and knowledgeable and became our buddies throughout our trek. Indeed, the Jomsom Muktinath trek is mesmerizing, but the genuine support, service, and experience of Boundless Adventure’s team greatly enhanced our journey—I highly recommend the trekking agency.

Exceptional experience on Jomsom Muktinath trekking
Mr.Dambar Khadka organized a well-planned itinerary for us to go to Jomsom Muktinath trekking. My four friends and I completed the tour and enjoyed it. The success of our journey is the dedication of the team members of Boundless Adventure to ensuring our enjoyment, safety, and comfort. Our first highlight after stepping foot in the Annapurna region for Jomsom Muktinath trekking was Poon Hill. We hike to poon hill early in the morning after spending an overnight at Ghorepani.
Another highlight of our journey was bathing in a Natural hot spring at Tatopani. Likewise, the view of the Mountain range, waterfall, and flowing Kali Gnadaki River was spectacular during our trek. Visiting Muktinath temple and bathing in 108 water taps was a unique experience. We confidently recommend Boundless Adventure for a memorable adventure.
