The Annapurna Ghandruk Village Trek, also known as the Annapurna View Trek, is a perfect short trek through the heart of the Annapurna region. Located in Nepal’s Kaski District, this route offers incredible views of Annapurna South, Machhapuchhre (Fishtail), and Hiunchuli, along with a close-up experience of the Gurung culture.
At just 2012 meters, Ghandruk is ideal for those seeking beautiful mountain scenery without the high-altitude challenge. The trail winds through rhododendron forests, rice terraces, and traditional villages like Landruk, Dhampus, and Chhomrong, offering an authentic glimpse into rural Himalayan life.
Starting with a scenic drive from Kathmandu to Pokhara, the trek begins at Nayapul and loops back after 3 days of moderate hiking. Wildlife, waterfalls, birdlife, and breathtaking mountain panoramas make this trek both accessible and unforgettable.
