Trekking
One of the best ways to discover the beautiful nature around Pokhara is to do a trekking. We give you two examples. It is also possible to combine these two treks (known as Annapurna Sanctuary trek).
Annapurna Base Camp Trek (ABC)
The 8 days during Annapurna Base Camp trek is one of the most popular and fabulous treks in the world. It literally brings you to a height of 4.130 m and you will be face to face with an eight thousander – for a moderate difficult trek, this is incredible! The fascinating Annapurna massif includes the world’s tenth highest peak. Annapurna I (8,091 m) and holds an almost fatal attraction for mountaineers.
Poonhill trek
The 5 days during Poon Hill trek is one of Nepal’s most classic short treks. In a short amount of time, you pass through beautiful local villages, rhododendron forest, and, of course, get access to panoramic views of Nepal’s most famous peaks from Poon Hill- Dhaulagiri, Nilgiri, Annapurna I and Annapurna South. At Poon Hill you will enjoy a spectacular surise. The difficulty of this trek is moderate.
Mountain biking
We can help you to arrange a mountainbike experience.
There are a lot of possibilities, like multi day biking trips in the Himalayas or a one-daytrip day or overnight trips in and around Pokhara valley. Our guides have scouted the area to get you off crowded roads and give you a ride you’ll never forget.
