In this magnificent region, one of the biggest forest of Rhododendron of the country blooms in the spring.
From Ghorepani, the close Himalayan view Mt. Dhaulagiri (8167m), Mt. Nilgiri (7061m) and Mt. Annapurna-south (7219m) is extraordinarily beautiful.
Down the hill on the trekking route, it is to discover the rural life of the country as well as the different ethnical group of that region. In the magnificent village of Ghandruk, Gurungs are the indigenous ethnical group, living harmoniously with the natural surroundings.
By not moving to the high altitude, this trekking is an excellent introduction to the trekking in Himalayas.
