Also, know as Khopra Ridge Trek, the trekking route to Khopra has been recently developed. The place is quite rich in its unspoiled lush natural beauty that trekkers will definitely have a good time.

The grandiose views of Dhaulagiri (8167 m), Hiunchuli (6434m), Fishtail (6997m), Annapurna ranges, Lamjung Himal, Nilgiri, in the backdrop and hiking up and down alongside the thick rhododendron forest, oak and pine trees, terraced farming fields makes our trekking trip very pleasant.

The ridge also has an abundance of Himalayan wildlife, including the rare Himalayan Tahr. Overall, the Khopra trek is an awe-inspiring perfect outlook of the Annapurna Region.

Hikers usually couple this trip with a hike to Khayar Lake which happens to be another good option if you have some extra days to explore the region.
