Itinerary description

|
Show original
09/23/2017 Total time of the route with stops: 07 hours.

We stopped to eat in a nice town called "Dhikur Pokhari".

The route runs on track between a large canyon in its first 8 kilometers. Then take a path for a small stretch, and continue along the track to the town where we stopped to eat.

From "Dhikur Pokhari". We can take two directions: towards Upper Pisang or towards Lower Pisang. We take the direction towards Upper Pisang (like most people).

We decided to go to sleep in Upper Pisang since the next day to reach "Manang" we would take the path that goes uphill, which favors acclimatization.

From Upper Pisang you can see the impressive peaks of the peaks "Annapurna II" and "Annapurna IV".

The river views during the entire route "super" spectacular.

THE STAGES OF OUR ROUTE WERE THE FOLLOWING:

Day 1. Besi Sahar - Chame (JEEP)
If it were done walking could be done in two or three days.
There is an option to go by local bus from "Besi Sahar to Bhulbhule" (9 kilometers away). Said bus leaves early in the morning.

Day 2. Chame - Upper Pisang

Day 3. Upper Pisang - Manang

Day 4. Acclimatization. Manang - Ice Lake - Manang

Day 5. Manang - Thorong Pedi
Performing this route in a single day is an error. This route must be completed in two days for the theme of Acclimatization. The ideal would have been "Manang - Yak Kharka" and "Yak Kharka - Thorong Pedi"

Day 6. Thorong Pedi - Yak Khraka
This day we retreated as a precaution to feel several symptoms of "Altitude sickness." When descending the 500 meters that exists between a population and another one, the symptoms disappeared and the following day we continued the march with normality.

Day 7. Yak Kharka - Thorong Pedi


Day 8. Thorong I asked - Thorong La - Muktinath

Day 9. Muktinath - Jomsom

Day 10. Jomsom - Tatopani (MTB)
If it were done walking this stretch would be done in two days. "Jomsom - Kalopani" and "Kalopani - Tatopani"

Day 11. Tatopani - Gorepani

Day 12. Gorepani - Poon Hill - Bhirentani
