Ganesh Himal which is situated in central Nepal,
northwest of Kathmandu the terraced hillsides
seem to climb to the sky. Many interesting
ethnic group s a mixed of lifestyle offer you a
glimpse into real Nepali life and this gives
visitors an opportunity to observe the rich
Nepalese cultural tradition from the closest
quarter and intermingle with locals, hence
giving the visitor a sense of satisfaction.
There are three major groups of peaks between
Kathmandu and Pokhara such as Ganesh Himal,
Langtang and Manaslu including Annapurna range.
This trek is ideal for those wanting to escape
from the more popular regions of Annapurna and
Everest. It is famous for unspoiled Tamang
culture, spectacular views of mountains and
colourful rhododendron forest. It also begins
conveniently close to Kathmandu.
We start our trek from Sole Bazzar, after
driving almost 4 and half hours from Kathmandu.
Going through picturesque village and unspoiled
area of the country lead us to Singala where
mountain views are superb. From here we descend
through beautiful village and finally get to
Arughat where we catch our bus to Kathmandu.
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 Sing-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 from Dhading Bensi
where we spend the final night of our trip.
