Itinerary description
Way from Ghasa to Tatopani away from the road following the ACAP trails. It seems that I missed a sign after Suke Bagar so I took the side road there but I surprisingly managed to follow the rest of the trail. I realized I had missed it halfway through but it wasn't worth going back as it was a really small part to walk so I continued forward till I joined the trail.
Once you cross the suspension bridge towards the Narchyang trek head right as you face the big sign to get to Tatopani. There is a blue sign at the bottom although half erased. You'll cross another bridge and then turn left and follow the main road. To be honest the hot springs didn't look much to me from the outside and decided to give them a miss. It was also raining and the rain was getting heavier or I'd walk to the next city instead of staying in Tatopani.
This is honestly a beautiful trail, it's a pity so many people do the Annapurna circuit just for the pass and then take a Jeep down. You miss the tropical side of Nepal with banana and corn plantations asking the way. I also stopped at a small Lodge to get some fresh banana juice while doing this.
