Gurung Heritage Trail Trekking


Gurung Heritage Trail Trekking is a short , easy and popular trekking trail at Annapurna area , lies western part of Nepal. providing a wonderful Nepalese rural life with few uphill climbs of any significance. This area is home to the famous honey hunters of Nepal. This short hiking is the perfect compliment to discovering some of the other highlights of Nepal – historic towns, white water rafting and the country’s most famous conservation area.
The Himalaya view from the villages stretches of  Buddha Himal (6673m), Himalchuli and Manaslu (8156m) to the northeast Mt. Lamjung and Annapurna II to the north and Mt. Machhapucchre and Annapurna South to the Northwest. The approach to Ghalegaun-Ghanpokhara is a wonderful experience; the mists of the early mornings, the beautiful Khudi and Midim rivers; beautiful rhododendrons; chirping sound of the birds simply takes one to the far away place and completely with the nature. The trekking route passes through he dense forests, villages and awesome waterfalls.
This route attracts trekkers and walkers and nature lovers because of its lower altitude although there are some very good views of the Himalaya without actually having to ascend into them. Trekkers carry only day bag  pack and walk at their own pace.
