Camping Trekking
Panch Pokhari
Trekking Duration: 13
days Grade: Moderate
Panch Pokhari is named after 5 holy
ponds and Hindus religiously respect the place. This is
just northeast of Kathmandu toward snow wall. The beautiful
Himalayan view and pristine nature with distinct culture
is the most attraction of the trek.
After we eat breakfast at the restaurant
near by our office, we take a bus ride out of the Valley
and up through the hills. After 5 hours bus ride we arrive
at the trek starting point called Chautara. We are going
to spend the first night of our outdoor adventure right
nearby small town in a ground. Our Guide gives a short lesson
of trekking on the first night. He also explains about the
altitude sickness and all the beautiful spots from where
you can see an excellent view of mountains.
During the rest of our 13 days trip,
we observe the different ways of life, culture and come
in contact with the people in the small village, passing
through the dense forestations and meadows. The top of Panch
Pokhari (5 lakes) offers an excellent view of Jugal himal
range, rolwaling range, Gosainkund etc. On the last day
of the trip we take a bus ride back to Kathmandu from Melamchi
where we spend the final night of our trip.
