Itinerary description
Part of my Annapurna circuit trek, a very pleasant day if you exclude the parts of the trail that are on the road. There were some beautiful parts through a pine forest and the fresh green apple juice on Bhratang is well worth trying. Sadly it wasn't apple season to get some fresh apples and they need time to bake the apple pie so I just settled for the juice.
The trail to Upper Pisang offered some amazing views of the surrounding mountains and it was a clear day so you could see most of the peaks? A very pleasant day that again ended by lunchtime at Upper Pisang.
The best guest houses in Upper Pisang seem to be at the beginning of the village, I tried to walk to the end but didn't have anything more appealing to offer so I walked back down to the start. I ended up staying in Nyeshang Cottage which had individual detached cottages for rooms each also having an attached toilet. But there are at least 4 different guest houses that look nice at the start of the village. Not that many at the end.
