Handicrafts Product from Nepal
Commencing
with an overland journey to Beshi Sahar,
130 km West of Kathmandu where we overnight.
Our trek follows the gorge of Marshyangdi
river through lush fields of paddy,
innumerable tiny streams, waterfalls
and beautiful villages, eventually emerging
into high desert country at Manang (3597
m.). The trek gains in height fairly
gently reducing the chances of altitude
sickness, although, we do spend a day
acclimatising before crossing the Thorang-La
(5416 m.). From a high lodge camp we
are up early for our crossing of the
Thorang- La (tremendous high mountain
feelings) before our decent to Muktinath
in the lower Mustang region, one of
the holiest pilgrimage sites for Buddhist
and Hindu people in Nepal.
We continue through
the dry arid landscape to Kagbeni, a
fascinating historical fortress town.
The trail back follows the Kali Gandaki
River to Jomsom (optional fly out here)
beneath the shadow of immense Himalayan
peaks and through the deepest canyon
in the World. We descend to Tatopani
before ascending to Ghorepani and Poon
hill for some tremendous sunrise views
of both the Dhaulagiri and Annapurna
Himal. A further two days are spent
trekking through beautiful Rhododendron
bamboo and Oak forest before eventually
reaching Nayapul for a short drive to
the beautiful lakeside town of Pokhara.
This trek is considered to be the classic
trek in Nepal to experience the vast
bio diversity and cultural heritage
Nepal is renowned for.
