A Kanchenjunga trek package runs 20 to 26 days, crosses 5,143 m at Pangpema, and costs $2,400 to $3,400 per person in 2027 to 2030, while a Manaslu Circuit package runs 14 to 18 days, crosses 5,106 m at Larkya La, and costs $1,400 to $2,000. Kanchenjunga suits trekkers wanting remote east Nepal wilderness, while Manaslu suits trekkers wanting a high pass crossing closer to Kathmandu.

Acclimatisation at Manang and a slow pre dawn crossing reduce the risk substantially.
