I CONTINUED FROM HERE: Manaslu Circuit Trek - Day0: Kathmandu to Machhakhola Day 1: Trek from Machhakhola (930m/3051ft) to Jagat (1340m/4396ft) - 19km/6-7H 7-May-2026 I woke up at around 5:30 AM and took a cold shower. The guesthouse was supposed to have hot water, but none reached our bathroom, at least. Fortunately, the weather was pleasant, and the cold shower did not bother me much. After breakfast, we began our trek at 7:45 AM. Along the way, we spotted a yellow-throated marten quickly dart across the trail. We stopped at a hot spring where Ward decided to take a dip. Most of the trail so far followed a jeep track. Soon, there may be a road all the way up to Jagat, and people might simply begin their trek from there instead. For lunch, we stopped at a small teahouse along the way, where dal bhat was served. We rested for a while before resuming our walk.
