Pokhara Jomsom

 

Annapurna Region

 

Pokhara - Jomsom Muktinath Treks (16 Days):

The Jomsom trek is a wonderful opportunity to witness the beauty of the Annapurna region with a shorter trek. The 6-days trek to Jomsom is essentially the last third of the Annapurna circuit. The trip starts just north of the city of Pokhara and winds through the Poon Hill area and then passes the Dhaulagiri icefall giving you a prime view of all the mountains. After reaching Jomsom the trek heads up to Muktinath, an important pilgrimage place for Buddhists and Hindu's, which lies on the Tibetan plateau. This area gives you a look at the high and dry landscape that is all the Tibetan plateau. The trek ends with a plane ride from Jomsom to Pokhara and then to Kathmandu. This is one of the lower elevation treks that we offer rising to only 3800 m..
