Mohare Danda Khopra Trek

You will be welcomed by our representative and he/she will accompany you to the hotel.

After a quick breakfast, it is best to start the journey to Pokhara as soon as possible as it will be a long road trip. In spite of the long and tiring drive, the journey in itself is bound to be an exciting one.

Thanks to the magnificent, rustic villages and a river that meets you here and there. Prior accommodation arrangements will be made in Pokhara so that the night is spent comfortably

With a delicious breakfast, we will have a short drive to Nayapul. It is here at Nayapul that the trek will commence in the West-Northward direction. We will then come across the Modi River which will be crossed with the help of a suspension bridge. Promising views and guarantee of safety, you will love it.

After passing through Deupur village, the trek will be mostly uphill, to end in PurnaGaun where overnight halt is planned.

Traveling from PurnaGaun to Lespar is comparatively easy as it means trudging through farmlands and countryside and finally forested land before reaching Lesnar.

Overnight stay is pre-booked at a tea house with basic facilities only. Not to worry though, as the beauty of the place more than makes up for it.

Our destination on the fifth day is Nangi village. This is quite a popular village in the area due to its Wireless Internet Service, telephone facilities, a Higher secondary school, and a Nepalese brown paper factory. The first of these of initiated by Mr. Mahabir Pun who has been honored with the Magasese International Award.

Although the trek is a bit exhausting on this stretch with hills and thick bushy areas, the reward is tempting enough. After all, it is from here onwards that you first set eyes on the magnificent Dhaulagiri Mountain range.

We will be making our way upwards to the MohareDanda camp, based at 3300m through the Hampal pass. Most of the way is covered with forests and with the marvelous Annapurna range remains in the line of sight, right after Mohare itself.

Night accommodation is arranged in a community lodge. If the weather is clear, we will be witness to the most beautiful sunrise.

As we advance further downwards towards Swantha, a musical soiree by birds is sure to entertain us. Not just an auditory pleasure but also a visual delight of a path strewn with rhododendrons in the midst of untouched greenery of oaks, pines, and junipers. Soon, we will arrive at a viewpoint called Poonhill, after which we will head towards Ghorepani for lunch. 

Post lunch, we will move towards Chitre village for an hour and a half. Here onwards, a new trial will take us to Swantha village which lies at 2260m. This village is also the threshold for the Khopra trek. 

An idyllic journey, complete with birdsongs and the music of water gushing in the river awaits on the eighth day. Walking for a couple of hours and wading through a stream, will lead us to Kharka where lunch is to be had.

On the other side of lunch, is a steep 120 minutes climb up the Khopra hill, ultimately stopping at Chistibang. An amazingly scenic place, it definitely deserves a night stay.

The 9th day will take us to Khopra (3660m) after a rigorous climb. You are surely going to be mesmerized after conquering and witnessing such a tempting view. However, there isn’t anything to worry about night stays.

Lodging arrangements are made here at night and the best part is the telephone and internet services so that any emergency contact can be done.

Dobato can be reached by two paths- a slightly risky, elevated route right above the Khopra, known as High Route and a comparatively safer but longer Low Route. Even though the high route is more beautiful with rhododendrons blooming everywhere and the mesmerizing Kali Gandaki valley, it can be quite dangerous in wetter weather as the trail is narrow and frequently slippery.

Any wrong footing can prove to be fatal. It is best to resort to the low route in such a circumstance in spite of it being more winding.

We will be trekking to Isaru that houses a couple of lodges, situated at a distance of 30 minutes to each other. Another couple of hours and we will come across a junction, from where we go Tadapani.

It is a tourist spot with Mt. Annapurna South, Himchuli and Machhapuchre (Fishtail). The trek becomes easier and more beautiful here forth due to a sea of rhododendrons and some friendly langurs on the way.

The final night halt in the lap of the Himalayas, the 12th day sees us climbing down from Gandhruk to Modi Khola via a steel bridge and upwards to Landruk.

We will cross the stunning Tolka village till Deurali, eventually descending to Pothana.

The last day of the trek comprises of minimum walking post a hearty breakfast. The route will be through the Dhampus village to Phedi. Bidding adieu to the Annapurnas, we will board the vehicle that will carry us back to Pokhara.

Free to explore on your own Pokhara- a city of lake paradise.
