Family Getaway 8 Days 7 Nights Ghandruk Tour Package

Upon arrival in Kathmandu, you will be escorted to your hotel by a Snowyoda representative where you will check in with a traditional welcome. Days rest to prepare ourselves for the trek and the journey to Pokhara. Or you can also take a stroll around Kathmandu which depends on your mood and condition. At night, we take you the tourist hub of Kathmandu, Thamel where you will be treated with a traditional dinner and a chance to do some shopping.

Morning after breakfast we embark on your journey to Pokhara which is about 200 kms and takes around 6 hours to reach. On arrival in Pokhara you will be instantly awed by the Phewa Lake and the laid back atmosphere it has on offer. After having lunch and a brief rest we start our trek . The trek starts from Nayapul which is about one and half hour drive. The first day is relatively easy as you will find yourself just walking uphill on a gravel road. Soon afterwards the road gets transformed to a trail and we cross the Modi Khola (river) and reach Tikledhunga. This will be our final destination for the day as we check into a lodge and have dinner. (Total trekking time for today 5-6 hours)

The days hike is quite challenging as you keep walking straight towards the mountain for about 4 hours which provides a stern test of your stamina. But it is rewarding as well as you catch picturesque views of the white snow capped Annapurna peaks. We stop for lunch in between and after an hours rest we set off for Ghorepani which is about 3 hours of hiking. Ghorepani is divided into a upper and a lower part. We stop at the upper part which has superb panoramic views of the Annapurna range and the surrounding mountains. Overnight at Ghorepani.

We wake up early at 5 am to head towards the majestic Poon Hill which is about a 45 minutes hike to catch the sunrise. After reaching the top of Poon Hill we welcome the magnificent views of Annapurna (8091M) , Dhaulagiri (8167M) and Machhapuchhre (Fishtail mountain ,6993 M) . This view is the focal point of the Ghorepani-Poonhill Trekking route and you can spend hours just amazed by it. The rugged snowy peaks towering above us covered in splashes of red of the sun is just the thing that brings so many tourists to this route. We return to Ghorepani and after having breakfast and some rest we embark further towards the direction of Ghandruk Village. From here onwards you are continuously splashed with wonderful views of the mountains and it would be hard to stop yourself from stopping every instance and click some photos. You will pass along a parallel ridge and some downhill routes into dense rhododendron forests and waterfalls . We finally reach Ghandruk Village which is inhabited by the Gurung people and is mostly occupied with stone houses. You can also spend time in some sight-seeing which involves a museum, a temple and a monastery. The views are again amazing and you would just want to watch the mountains forever.

Today we embark on our descent towards Pokhara which is about 13.2 kms . We stop for lunch in Birethani and relax for a while for the final small hike to Nayapul which is only 2kms away now. After reaching Pokhara, we check into our hotel and you are suggested to rest as the toll of the trek on your body starts becoming visible. You can also have a massage in town and recharge yourselves. You can extend your stay in Pokhara enjoying other activities and attractions or you can return to Kathmandu with transportation provided by us.
