ghandruk




Village lies between Lumle and Dangsing Village Development Comittee. It is located in Northern far of Kaski district where are mainly gurungs lived. then Brahmin, Chhetri, Magar, Damai, Kami and Saarki are also living this Village. This is a short trek but probably most popular route. There are no other routes which have this much natural diversity. it is located at Annapurna Circuit trek. Annapurna Circuit Trek is a classic trek around the world's tenth highest mountain, cross the classic Throng La Pass (5,416m/17,769ft) from Manang to Muktinath, take in fabulous mountain views from the summit of Poon Hill at 3,210m. /10,531ft. & cultural variety. This trek starts from Nayapul an hour car/bus drive from Pokhara. In the beginning of trek village life, culture, water falls & green hills’ view can be enjoyed. In clear conditions, there are fine views of Annapurna peaks and the famous fishtail peak Machhapuchhare along the way. We commence our short Annapurna trek and for the first hour we follow track road along the banks of the Modi Khola River to the villages of Birethanti and Shyauli Bazar. From Syauli Bazar, we then ascend above the valley floor on a stone staircase. To the north, there are again super views of the Annapurna Mountains. A short but steep section leads to Kimche (1630m) where we can take lunch before following a wide and well-defined path of stone flags that lines through fields of rice, wheat and millet to the largest village in the region, The next stage of the trek is one of the longest, heading north up the Modi valley to Ghandruk with spectacular views of the Annapurna range. This is the highest and northern most point of the journey.
