Overview
The Panchase Trek in the Annapurna Region is a short and low-altitude off-the-beaten trail that starts from the southwest side of Pokhara. The trek offers us a significant opportunity to observe the various species of birds along with the gigantic Mountain Fishtail, Dhaulagiri, and Annapurna Ranges.
Panchase Trek Introduction
The trek will start by boating through Phewa Lake. The trek then heads to the World Peace Pagoda (1,050 m), which is only an hour's walk from Phewa Lake. After relaxing, our real adventure begins in the village of Bhumi. For food and accommodation, Bhumdi Village (1,520m) offers basic teahouses and local family homes. Afterward, we will explore Panchase Hill (2,500m), which offers panoramic views of the popular mountains.
The trek is suitable for trekkers from young to old, families with children, and newly married couples. The trekkers are not supposed to be well experienced in mountaineering and climbing for Panchase trekking. All levels of trekkers can easily accomplish this trek without ascending higher altitudes. You are recommended to trek during the season of February to May and August to December.

Welcome to the country of peace and mountain, Nepal. Upon your arrival at the Tribhuvan International Airport, a Nepal Vision representative welcomes you and transfers you to your hotel in Kathmandu. After refreshments, youâll have a meeting with your guide and you will have a welcome dinner at a typical Nepalese restaurant in the heart of Kathmandu followed by a short briefing about your trip and overnight at the Hotel.
After breakfast, you will start your guided trip to cultural world heritage sites in Kathmandu valley, the pilgrimage sites of Hindu temple Pashupatinath, the world's biggest Bouddhanath stupa and visit Swoyambhunath Stupa, which is also known as monkey temple. Moreover, you will have an observation of the historical Kathmandu Durbar Square with its temple, unique architecture, and Kumari (living goddess). It is believed that observation of the Kumari is a symbol of good luck. In the evening, we will have a pre-trip discussion and introduction with the fellow trekking staff for your adventure trip and overnight at Hotel.
On this day, you'll take an early morning drive to Pokhara by private transfer to reach the beautiful city of Pokhara through various scenes and scenarios.

Overnight at a hotel.
Your trek will start after crossing the short boat trip across the beautiful Phewa Lake at Pokhara. More excitingly, you will climb the step through the forest, which will lead you to the World Peace Pagoda. This Buddhist stupa is one of the most famous peace stupas among the 80 stupas in the world. This is built to unite people from all over the world and promote peace in the world. As well as being an impressive sight in itself, from this vantage point you will also get stunning views of the mesmerizing mountains, Phewa Lake, and Pokhara City. After a chance to round the peaceful stupa, you will continue the trek down through the forest on small walking trails, before climbing back up to join an open jeep trail snaking around the hill, which will take you through the village of Lukum Swara. The final climb of the day takes you up to Bumdi village, home to Gurung and Brahman people, where you will spend the night learning more about their cultures.
After breakfast, you will continue the trek where beautiful forests and mountains will create a heavenly joy that makes you invigorated. The day can be a great day for nature lovers, as the path winds amongst diverse trees and plants. You can also hear the birds above with a glimpse of some monkeys! Emerging from the trees briefly at Thulunchour you then continue under the cover of the forest, from where you can see panoramic views of the mountains. These include the Annapurna, Lamjung, Gangapurna, and Machhapuchhare (Fishtail) as well as three peaks over 8,000m: Dhaulagiri, Annapurna I, and Manalsu, in the distance. Continuing along the jeep trail takes you gently uphill to Panchase Bhanjyang.
This morning you will have a different taste as you climb the stone steps up to Panchase Danda at almost 2,500m/8,200ft, the highest point of your trek. From here you will again be rewarded with stunning views over the mountains. Reaching the place, there is the option of getting up extra early to ascend to this point in time for sunrise! After catching your breath and taking in your surroundings, you descend down the far side of the hill. This afternoon consists of a gentle walk down to your campsite, with regular views of the mountains above and villages below. The campsite is situated just above the town of Bhadaure, where you can experience a mix of cultures, as there is a range of residents including Gurung, Kami, and Brahman.
On the seventh day, your trek will commence with a descent down the stone steps to the town of Bhadaure, and continue on to the jeep trail that takes you across a small stream and through regular villages. From the place, you will get the chance to interact with locals and children will ask for chocolate! On reaching Naudanda the trail will rejoin the highway and you'll then drive back to Pokhara.
