Ghorepani Meditation Trek |
|
 |
|
In this
Area there are no monasteries for meditation but
meditation is possible in the camping places and
in this trek meditation trek is so nice because
of the beautiful sceneries from the meditation
places. This area, north of Pokhara, called "Ghorepani"
offers some of the most dramatic close-up views
of the highest and most beautiful mountains in
the world. As the sun touches the snowcapped
summits the Himalayan giants, Dhaulagiri
(8,167m) and Annapurna (8,091m) along with a
maze of other peaks, slowly begin to appear,
like magic, before our eyes. This is a rewarding
trek that can be enjoyed by every lover of
nature and beautiful landscape. This is one of
the lower elevation treks that we offer rising
to only 3200 m. The abrupt variation in altitude
found here is astonishing. From the Pokhara
airstrip (850m) the summit of Machhapuchhare
(6997m) is less than 30 km. This area is home to
the Magars and Gurungs (backbone of the famous
Gorkha regiments). The trek passes through
rhododendron and mixed forest alive with ferns
and birds, through spectacular villages of the
Gurkha soldiers with their spectacular Himalayan
back drops leads to Ghorapani 2834 m. The
following morning visits Poon Hill at (3210 m),
a vantage point to view the Dhaulagiri (8167 m)
and the Annapurna massif. The trek makes a small
circuit and visits Tadapani (2450 m), Ghandruk
and finally ends in Pokhara. |
