Home to countless trekking routes, the region offers a unique experience as you journey through ancient Gurung villages learning more about the local culture and way of life. A short adventure, the journey is ideal if you are short on time or simply want to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city areas.

Our hilly adventure begins from the town of Pokhara from where we head north to reach the trailhead of Phedi.
