This region is heavily settled and farmed. Sarankot, situated northwest of Pokhara, is an ideal vantage point from which you can view Pokhara Valley and Phewa Lake and the sunrise and sunset within the majestic Himalayan range. You will have magnificent views of the Annapurna range.

This popular trek passes through beautiful countryside inhabited by highly diversified communities of people. The Dhampus Peak region is heavily settled by the mid-hills tribe the Gurungs. Gurungs are the famous Gurkha soldiers of the British, Indian, and Nepalese armies. This trek offers excellent scenery in the western Himalayan Range to give an encompassing taste of trekking in Nepal.

The 3500 meter ascent from Tukuche is where our climb starts. The normal route to Dhampus Peak follows the west ridge, which connects Dhampus Pass(5200m), where our highest camp is placed, with the summit. We have a 6-day schedule for acclimatized people starting from the High Plains Inn in Tukuche. For unacclimatized individuals, we offer various acclimatization programs, with each takin an additional 4 days. An ideal combination is the trek over the 5400 meter high Thorung Pass. Though this expedition exceeds the 6000 meter frontier, no technical climbing skills are required. The use of crampons depends on snow conditions. This means any experience in walking on snow/ice is advisable. As there are no steep pitches and glacier traverses, we won't be roped together. Hence knowledge about knots and rescue operations are also not required. Though, good physical health and mental perseverance is necessary.
