| | John May, Florida, USA | | We fly to Pokhara a bustling town set beneath the beautiful Machhapuchhare or Fishtail Mountain (22,942 ft) and the Annapurna Himal. Our trek follows the rim of the Pokhara valley with superb views of the snow capped mountains stretching away into the distance. We follow trade routes from village to village along ridgeline paths. Often stopping for tea at local lodges and just sitting and admiring the stunning scenery. The path runs between intricately terraced fields of wheat and maize with thatched houses dotting the scene. Temperatures are often hot and an umbrella is well worth the investment to act as a sunshade ! There are several small sections of steep climbs but generally the paths are very easy and plenty of time is allowed for the steeper sections. | | Easy. With good paths, lower altitude, warm days and plenty of tea houses this is an ideal way to relax and take things easy and still say you have been to the Himalayas !! 4 - 5 hours walking, plenty of time for rests make this a good choice for those not wanting to rush things and enjoy a gentler trek. | | |
