It is a short classic trek. It traverses a variety of terrain ranging from lowland villages and rice terraces up to 3,000m where one finds the biggest Gurung village
and the forests of rhododendron best seen blooming in the spring. The highest point of this trek is the Panchase hill. There are no lodges available on the trail. So, we recommend for a fully supported camping trip. This trek is non-technical and suitable for all ages including family and honeymooners. If you are fairly fit and have a sense of adventure you will enjoy this trek. It is easy walking and not required altitude consciousness.
