Ganesh Himal Trek - 14 Days
Price :
850 $ 4Pax
This trekking area lies on the central eastern
region of Nepal. This region offers spectacular
views, untouched natural, splendour, wild and
friendly inhabitants.
The Ganesh Himal is named after the
elephant-headed God of Good Fortune. The Ganesh
Himal can clearly be seen from Kathmandu Valley.
The Ganesh Range Peaks (Ganesh I, Ganesh II,
Ganesh III, Ganesh IV) stand out like crystal,
that is the "Great Himalayan Chain" forming the
skyline. This great Himalayan massif is
contained between the valley of the Budhi
Gandaki in the west and Bhote Koshi in the east,
which becomes Trishuli Khola in the lower
section.
After we eat breakfast at the restaurant near by
our office, we take a bus ride out of the Valley
and up through the hills. The first glimpse of
Ganesh Himal greets us, when we go crossing over
the hills. After 5 hours bus ride we arrive at
the trek starting point Betrawati. We are going
to spend the first night of our outdoor
adventure right nearby the Trishuli River at
Betrawati in the small town. Our Guide gives a
short lesson of trekking on the first night. He
explains: why you are trekking in this region
and what else you are going to explore in this
region. He also explains about the altitude
sickness and all the beautiful spots from where
you can see an excellent view of mountains.
During the rest of our 14 days trip, we observe
the different ways of life, culture and come in
contact with the rural people in the small
village, passing through the dense forestations
and meadows. We cross through high Shing La Pass
and Pangsang La Pass which offers an excellent
view of the massif Ganesh Himal, Langtang, and
Annapurna. On the last day of the trip we take a
bus ride back to Kathmandu or Pokhara or Chitwan
from Dhading Bensi where we spend the final
night of our trip. |
