The Mohare and Khopra Danda Trek is one of Nepal’s most breathtaking and lesser-explored treks. Unlike the popular Ghorepani-Poonhill trail, this route takes you off the beaten path, offering unparalleled views of the western Himalayas, including the majestic Dhaulagiri, Annapurna South, Machhapuchhre, Nilgiri, and Tukuche peaks.
This trek combines natural beauty, remote Himalayan villages, and rich cultural experiences in the Annapurna region. Starting from Pokhara, the route passes through charming Magar and Gurung communities, serene forests, terraced farmlands, and stunning viewpoints like Mohare Danda, Poonhill, and Khopra Danda.
A highlight of the trek is Khayer Lake (4660m), a sacred lake at the base of Annapurna South, providing both spiritual and scenic inspiration. The trek concludes with a visit to Ghandruk village, a cultural hub of the Gurung community, before returning to Pokhara and Kathmandu.
This trek is ideal for adventurers seeking panoramic Himalayan views, cultural immersion, and eco-community experiences, making it one of the hidden gems of Nepal’s trekking destinations.
