Jomsom Muktinath Trekking Nepal - 18 Days
The Jomsom trek is probably the single most popular trek in
Nepal. The diverse landscapes and cultures to be found along the trek route
give a marvelous insight into the way of life of rural Nepalese people. The
route to Jomsom up the Kali Gandaki River passes through a gap in the Himalayan
barrier in the bottom of the deepest river canyon in the world.
Kaligandaki Valley (Jomsom - Muktinath) area is situated in
north of Pokhara. Gorepani, where we spend one night before descending Tatopani
offers some of the most dramatic close-up views of the highest and most
beautiful mountains in the world. In addition, this region is known for some of
the most abrupt altitude variations experienced anywhere. A magnificent sunrise
at Poon Hill, before descending Tatopani (hot spring) and then we encounter the
world's deepest gorge, where the powerful Kali Gandaki River has cut deep
through the Himalaya between the massive peaks of Dhaulagiri and Annapurna,
view of wonderful Dhaulagiri Icefall.
As we trek up the Kali Gandaki valley we pass though the
traditional and prosperous villages of Tukuche, Ghasa, Marpha and Jomsom. The
Thakalis, a traditional traders, have converted their charming and wonderfully
clean homes into trekkers' lodges and are well known as one of the most
gracious and successful innkeepers in Nepal. Past Jomsom we reach the arid
Tibet-like landscape of Mustang. At Muktinath, set below the Thorung La pass,
we have a day to explore the temple and villages and enjoy wonderful mountain
views. Finishing our trek along one the major pilgrimage and trade routes
Jomsom between India and Tibet we experience local traders, Hindu and Buddhist
pilgrims making the end of our adventure as amazing as the beginning. The
itinerary can and long we can fixed, as your desire.
