KASKI: A ‘Golf Challenge’ is going to be held with the aim of maintaining a world record at the ‘Mustang Golf Course’ located in Lowthang of Lomanthang rural municipality in upper Mustang.

The second edition of the golf tournament is going to be held September 16 at the golf course located at a height of 4,645 meters (15,239.5 feet) above sea level.

Former member of Gandaki Provincial Assembly and coordinator of the Provincial Golf Association Indradhara Bista shared that the Association is hosting the tournament in collaboration with Lomanthang Rural Municipality.
