This trek takes you to remote villages
that are far from the beaten track. The area of Ghalekharka-Sikles
is known as the ecological trek. Under the care of ACAP
(Annapurna Conservation Area Project) the environment
and culture in this newly opened area is being carefully
preserved. You will visit traditional villages of the
Gurung Ethnic group, sample the local dishes and perhaps
have the chance to see some traditional dance performances
such as the “Ghato” from Sikles. Superb views
of Lamjung Himal and the Annapurna can also be had. This
is a 7-day trek and suitable for the moderately fit. The
above two treks may be combined for a wonderful 2 week
trek. We also organize 1, 2 & 3 day treks. Best time
for trekking: October to May.
