Jomsom Webcam, Mustang District

If you’re an adventurous hiker who wants to trek the scenic trails of Nepal, one of the places you might set out from is Jomsom.

Jomsom is a remote village in the Mustang district of north-east Nepal on the banks of the Kali Gandaki River. Close to the Tibetan border and at an altitude of nearly nine-thousand feet, Jomsom is surrounded by some of the highest peaks in the Himalayan Mountains.

Hiking in the Himalayas is not for the faint-hearted. The Annapurna Circuit, one of the most frequently undertaken, is a hundred mile plus hike around the Annapurna Massif which reaches an altitude sickness inspiring eighteen thousand feet in the Thorong Pass.
