This is the first day of our trekking journey. We move from Jagat to Dharapani which will take about six hours. We first descend to a river and cross a suspension bridge from where we climb to Sattale (1550 meters). This is a very steep climb. We move through a zigzag way to the hilltop. After this, we head to Tal (1700 meters) as we descend to a riverbank where we can enjoy pristine waterfalls. After some more cliff-walking beyond Karte village (1900 meters), we cross a suspension bridge to reach Daharapani (1960 meters). We camp for the night.

After breakfast, w head to Chame which is the district headquarters; it takes around six hours. The trail ahead is very exciting where we can see amazing views of Lamjung Himal, Annapurna II and IV. We will enjoy some time in the hot spring before stopping at Chame for the night.

We head to a steep, narrow valley on this day. We get to see the Paung Dada which is a rock face rising 1500 meters from the river water. We can get an amazing view of Annapurna II and Pisang peak from south and northeast respectively. We move down to Manang valley and spend the night at Upper Pisang.

We trek from Pisang to Manang (3440 meters). This takes around five and a half hours. First, the trail moves to a step ridge that offers amazing views of Manang valley and the Tilicho peak (7145 meters).

On this trail, we will walk past the Airstrip at Humde (3320 meters) in Manang and then walk past wide plains of the valley, Sabje Khola. We will see Annapurna III and IV in these places.

We reach the Mungji village as we cross the Marsyangdi village with a wooden bridge. We will see large chortens along with Mani walls and the majestic peaks like Gangapurna (7455 meters), Annapurna II, Annapurna III, Annapurna IV, and to the rear, Tilicho Peak (7145 meters). We will rach Manag after a short steep ascend.

We rest in Manang on this day and stroll around the town. This is for acclimatization before crossing the Thorang la pass. You have the choice to cross the river to see the icefall falling down from Annapurna or climb the village for the amazing views of Annapurna range and Manang valley.

We first reach to Tenki village as cross a stream and then reach the valley of Jarsang river. We move to Ghunsa afterward; on our way, we will see pasture lands for yaks and horses. We then cross a wooden bridge near the Mani wall from where we reach the Yakkharka. Ledar is just an hour away from here; we spend the night in Ledar.

We walk for 3 and half hours to reach Thorong Phdi. We gradually climb to a ridge before we walk down to Marysangdi headwaters which we cross via a wooden bridge. We ascend the mountain path and then follow the narrow trail which leads us to Thorong Phedi after descending.

On this day, we move from Thorong Phedi to Muktinath (3850 meters) which will take us around seven hours as we make our way through the Throng La pass.

The trail is steep at first and then it eases and four hours of uphill climbing, we reach the chorten and prayer flags of Thorong La. We then descend to Muktinath which has to offer amazing views of Dhaulagiri. We reach grassy slopes after a good walk along the Jhong Khola valley to reach the Muktinath and its temples.

We trek from Muktinath to Marpha (2667 meters) which will take us around six hours. We descend down the Kali Gandaki gorge, first through arid lands. After crossing Khingar and Jharkot which have similar architectures like that of Tibetan's, we follow the valley to Jomsom. We head to Marpha, a beautiful Thakali village.

We take a bus from Marpha to Pokhara where we can savor our time strolling around the lakeside in Pokhara. You can get a direct flight from Jomsom to Kathmandu if you want to.

This is going to take around seven hours. We will drive past places like Damauli, Dumre, Muglin, and Kurintar on our way to Kathmandu. We climb to Thankot from Naubise to reach the capital, Kathmandu.
