Nepal Travel Trek

Dhampus –Sarangkot Trek

The Annapurna region of Nepal, a couple of hundred kilometers northwest of Kathmandu, is renowned for its blend of undisturbed nature, spectacular mountain views, and embracing culture. The Annapurna Circuit is typically rated as one of the "top 20" trekking experiences worldwide...Now that is an understatement!

 

This trek starts from Phedi, 07-08 hours drive from Kathmandu to Pokhara and 01 hours drive from Pokhara and end at Pokhara. This is a trouble-free and sweet walk in the middle hills of Nepal that lay near Pokhara the beautiful lake city. On this trek, we travel around the local culture and custom, fascinating heart hill parts of the Nepal, ample Pokhara valley and the white Himalayan peaks.
Best season to visit: In the spring (March to May) when the rhododendrons, the national flower of Nepal, are in bloom. Also in the fall (September to November) or post-monsoon when the weather is temperate and the skies are clear. However, as it is low part of the Annapurna region, trekkers can do trek whole year.

Trek Grade: Easy. This is not a difficult trek and no mountaineering skills required.

Maximum altitude: 1720m at Sarangkot

Length of trek: It is advisable to spend five along this route to fully experience the full scenic and cultural splendor.

Accommodations: This is traditionally a teahouse trek with well-maintained facilities along the route. It can also be organized as a camping trek as the valley floor can provide comfortable camping spots in good weather. Camping trek rates and fees are considerably higher as more resources are required.

Additional Information: Trekkers must beware of rubbery while passing through the jungle of Dhampus. Our experienced porters/guides will help you to avoid potentially unsafe situations.
