We will travel to Beni by bus early in the morning. The green scenery makes the voyage delightful. Permits will be examined at the district headquarters. The town where we stay is situated where Kali Gandaki and Myagdi Khola converge.

We leave Beni and travel west along the north bank of Myagdi Khola. We travel through Singa, Tatopani, and Beni Mangalghat village. We arrive at Simalchaur settlement on the north bank after traversing two bridges. We proceed to Babiya Chaur from here.

As we leave Babiya Chaur, we are met by terraced hills on either side of the river. We follow a fairly level track past villages, farms, and Duk Khola to reach Rotorunga. As we continue, the valley becomes smaller till we reach Dharapani.

We cross the river to the west bank from Dharapani. Once we leave Phedi, the trail flattens out after a hard rise that takes us to a ridge. We ascend once more, passing past Phalai Gaon, Sibang, Mattim, and Ghati Khola. We return to the west side of Myagdi Khola after traversing Dhara Khola. We then ascend a ridge to arrive at the Magar Village of Muri at last.

After a little descent from Muri, we cross a brook, go past terraced fields, ascend a ridge, and arrive at a pass. The magnificent Mt. Ghustung South (6465 m.) is visible from the pass. We travel to Naura village after descending to the west bank of Myagdi Khola. After a short ascent, we cross a ridge and ascend another steep hill with zigzag paths. After that, we finally arrive in Boghara after traversing a forest and terraced farms.

We descend through terraced fields to a ridge and then through a forest to reach Jyardhan, the most remote community in the region. A high, winding path crosses a rocky area, lowers, and then climbs again to Lipshe. After there, we travel through a forest to Lapche Kharka before ascending to Doban, which is a very level area.

After leaving Doban via a wooden bridge, we climb through a forest. Before descending back to Myagdi Khola bank, we gradually catch a sight of Dhaulagiri I. After that, we traverse a wooden bridge to arrive at Chartare and the east bank. To get to Choriban Khola, we then traverse a stream, a rocky terrain, and a forest.

We then continue in the direction of the Chhonbarban Glacier, which we enter from the right. After a while, we arrive at Italian Base Camp while admiring the beauty of Tukuche Peak and Dhaulagiri I from the trail. At 3660 meters above sea level, the base camp offers breathtaking views of Dhaulagiri II, Dhaulagiri III, and Dhaulagiri V.

We take the day off to relax and get used to the high altitude’s thinner air. Along with other hikers, we explore the camp and take in the breathtaking views of the snow-capped mountains. The remainder is meant to make the upcoming trekking days easier.

The hike starts early in the morning, when the weather is good, to prevent the area’s propensity of stone falls. After crossing a little gulf, we reach the Glacier camp.

It is a great day to see Dhaulagiri I’s north face together with other peaks like Dhaulagiri II, Dhaulagiri III, and Dhaulagiri V. The sight of the ice fall descending from the northeast is breathtaking.

We climb two hills after exiting the glacier. The first hill crosses a mountainside, a moraine, and passes alongside the glacier. At an elevation of 5360 meters, we reach French Pass after ascending a mild slope. At the pass, we are greeted by a breathtaking vista of the Hidden Valley, which encompasses Mukut Himal, Tashi Kang, and Sita Chuchura. We proceed along the right side from French Pass to Thapa Pass, which is 5250 meters above sea level. After descending the pass, we arrive at the base camp and set up our tents.

We take a day off to decompress after traversing all the passes and glaciers. While staying in Hidden Valley, we take in the breathtaking views of the mountains.Spend the night in a tent camp.

At an altitude of 5200 meters, we descend from Hidden Valley to Dhampus Pass. From there, we go on to Yak Kharka, which is 3680m and the ideal place to camp and take in the surroundings.

We spend a few hours descending sharply via trees and moraines from Yak Kharka to Tukuche. Spend the night at a local lodge.

We get to Larjung from Tukuche via a steep trail that runs alongside the Kali Gandaki River. This area is full in apple orchards. After that, we hike via a forest, a suspension bridge, and a flat route to arrive in Kokkethanti. To get to Kalopani, we travel through villages and cross a suspension bridge.

We have a lovely, leisurely stroll from Kalopani as we approach subtropical vegetation. The trail lowers to cross a bridge and arrive to a waterfall after following a river through a small valley. After that, we traverse the valley to arrive in Tatopani.

We spend the entire day climbing to Ghorepani after leaving the hot springs. We cross an ancient swaying bridge, follow the Ghar River, and exit the Kali Gandaki valley. We climb through Shika (1935m) and Ghara (1780m). To get to Ghorepani, the final portion of the trail passes through rhododendron and magnolia forests.
