DUDH POKHARI TREK 10 DAYS
Dudh Pokhari (4700m) is situated at the heart of the central north of Himalayan region of Nepal. This is a short trek to have close view of the 8000m. Mt. Manaslu (8163m), Himal chuli (7896m), Dr. Harka Gurung Peak (7871m), Annapurna range including Manang valley and Lamjung Himal. Dudh Pokhari is the long ridge that stretches south from Himal chuli (7896m) and near to Boudha peak (6672m).
Trek starts from Phalak sanghu on the way to Kathmandu- Besisahar, which bring you to Annapurna circuit. We cross the Marsyangdi River and go through the paddies fields and terraces of Gurung villages to the Tamang community and follow the ridge of Simledanda with pristine forest of rhododendron and bamboos.
On the way return we will walk down through a very beautiful historical village of Laprak which is situated at an altitude of 2200m. There are about 500 houses with the habitants of 2400, which are practicing the Buddhist Shamanism culture, and strong traditions of their ancestors.
This is adventurous trek that require the correct way of walking on the difficult trails. The paths are not so easy they are narrow with full of rocks. So one should have experience of walking through the remote villages. And sometimes we don't have the particular trail we should follow the pasture trail also.
But it is suitable for those who prefer to do the trek in an isolated area. This is the best trek, as the route is not so frequented.
