GHODEPANI
/ GHANDRUK TREK 08 DAYS
Ghodepani
means "horse water" and, as the
name suggests, it used to be a major refueling
stop or mule caravans bound for the high Himalayan
passes to Tibet. Encounters with pack animals
on the trail carrying salt and other merchandise
are interesting interludes on this scenic
trip. The trek makes a loop north of Pokhara
to provide tantalizing views of the Annapurna
mountains from a variety of angles. Our trip
begins with a flight to Pokhara from where
we drive to New Bridge (Naya Pool) on the
PokharaBaglung highway. Then the walking starts.
We follow the trade route up Tirkhe Dhunga
to Ghodepani. We return to Pokhara by way
of Ghandrung and Dhampus to make one big circuit.
