Itinerary description

|
Show original
This track goes from Tilche, last town of the stage of the return to Manaslu (Highly recommended, for my taste more beautiful, wild and less crowded than Annapurna), until Jomsom where we took the plane for Pokhara. Adding this section of the Annapurna to the return to the Manaslu is the perfect colophon to complete a dream treeking, it is approximately 21 days from Arugaht has Jomsom passing through all the different climatic stages, from the tropical, with its jungles, to more temperate climates with mixed forests, then the conifers, the steppe, the mountain climate and in the final part of Annapurnas the Tibet desert. This track has some recommended variants that avoid passing as far as possible by the tracks that have been built in this area. I would highlight the stage of Pisang Bajo, which climbs to Pisang Alto and after passing through several towns it reaches Manag, always with stunning views over the Annapurnas, and to finish the last stage from Mutikan to Jomsom in which the track avoids the track and It offers stunning views from above on the meanders of Budi Gandaki. I recommend everyone to contact in Pokhara with Hotel Donosti (It has until omelet of Potatoes) run by Ashok a nepali with good level of Spanish and other languages ​​charming and able to manage any aspect of treeking (porters, permits, internal flights, accommodation ...) and even be your guide if necessary. your hotel is very well the city of Pokhara of the best of Nepal to rest. I catalog it difficult because you have to overcome two steps of more than 5000 meters and during the treeking the "amenities" are not many, although the food is good and varied and there is even internet or you can get a prepaid phone card with data , the best company for the coverage issue, Nepal Telecom. Contact of Ashok, Hotel Donosti: Lakeside - 6, Pokhara, + 977-463678 or 467085; Mob: 9846085542; email: ashokrumba@hotmail.com; Fb: ashokrumba40@yahoo.com; Skype: ashoklama5
