Our Ghalegaon Ghanapokhara Trek is a short, sweet package of 10 days that brings trekkers into two famous villages- Ghale Gaon and Ghanapokhara resting calmly in the bossom of Lamjung district about 20.5km northwest of Kathmandu and 12.5km northeast of Pokhara.  Ghalegaon Ghanapokhara Trek shows us the two famous Gurung Settlements of Ghalegaon and Ghanapokhara whose people are known all over the world for their bravery. The ever smiling locals are more than willing to welcome you to their home and thus you will get the rare opportunity of getting to know the local culture and tradition and taste the authentic local food while engaging in Ghalegaon Ghanapokhara Trek.  

Ghalegaon Ghanapokhara Treks commences by driving to Khudi which proceeds through trek in Galegaon and Ghanapokhara Villages with immense potential for eco tourism and then proceed through several villages of Bhujung, Pasagaon and Nagidhar before taking to Kathmandu via Lake City of Pokhara.  The scenery and cultural beauty of this trek make it a quintessential Himalayan package.  It is an underrated trek, and you will surely be more in touch with the locals than with foreigners. 

Salient features of Ghalegaon Ghanapokhara Treks include Buddha Himal, Himalchuli and Manaslu to the northeast, Lamjung and Annapurna II Mountains to the north, Machhapuchhre and Annapurna Mountains to the northwest, the Khudi and Midim Rivers, passing by the way of verdant woods covered in rhododendrons and walking along cascading waterfalls.
