Khopra Ridge Trek:

This Trek is newly opened trekking route in the Annapurna region. In Khopra Ridge Trek you can see best Sunrise/Sunset view from your bed.

This trek begins flying from Kathmandu to a beautiful city Pokhara. After exploring the lake city (Pokhara) we’ll drive to Ghandruk village. Ghandruk is the largest Gurung village in Annapurna region. Hence, the trekking trail follows through a rhododendron forest. Furthermore, the trail passes through beautiful villages of Gurung, Magar and Pun (Poon) communities. In addition of beautiful mountains you can see Nepali lifestyle and Culture.

The trekking trail continues following Tadapani village and then goes all the way through the forest to Khopra danda. Khopra danda not only offers eye-catching panoramic view of the Himalayan Peaks, like Mt. Dhulagiri (8167 m), Mt. Nilagiri (7061 meter), Annapurna I (8091 m), Annapurna South (7219 m) and other Himalayan peaks but it also takes you to see a Magnificent Khayar Lake. This trek is an excellent way to make your best journey with experiencing local culture. The trail further goes down to Swata village and up to the Ghorepani. Here you can hike to Poonhill for another best sunrise and sunset view. Finally, the trek ends at Nayapul and drives you back to Pokhara.
