From there, a half-hour climb through forested slopes brings us to Danaque, where the eighth highest peak, Manaslu, is visible to the east, while Lamjung Himal is seen to the west. Continuing, we pass through the villages of Timang, Thanchok, and Koto Qupar. Koto Qupar offers stunning views of Manaslu to the east, and Annapurna II and Lamjung Himal to the southeast. As we proceed towards Chame, impressive rock formations on the opposite bank of the Naar River come into view.

As we descend, we pass a mani and soon arrive at Bharatang village. Beyond Bharatang, we reach Dhukure Pokhari, a picturesque spot with a lake nestled in the woods. Another charming lake is about 15 minutes farther, with the forest starting to thin out. After the lake, the trail passes a helipad as we near Pisang. On the hill across the river are the grey-brown houses of Upper Pisang, resembling clusters of bird nests. Above, Pisang Peak (6,091m/19,985ft) towers, and to the south rises Annapurna II (7,937m/26,041ft), the worldโ€™s 16th highest peak. Pisang village is just 15 minutes from the gateway.

      Day 15: Trek To Ghorepani (2750M/9023Ft)

      Leaving Tatopani, most trekkers head up to Ghorepani. For those short on time, a quicker exit follows through Beni. Whichever path you choose, two suspension bridges await: first over the Kali Gandaki River, then across the Ghar Khola.


      The climb from Ghar Khola leads to Ghara, a peaceful village at 1700 meters (5610 ft) with a non-touristy vibe. Leaving Gharaโ€™s farmlands behind, the trail winds along the basin rim, offering beautiful valley views. Sikha, with its sprawling terraced fields, sits 1940 meters (6402 ft) further up. Tea houses pepper the route, perfect for rest stops while soaking in the scenery. As you gain altitude, the mountains become even more impressive. Phalate and Chitre villages lie ahead, followed by a secluded climb through rhododendron, birch, and magnolia forests. Occasional meadows offer stunning glimpses of the peaks before reaching Ghorepani.

      Day 16: Trek To Poonhill (3210M/10532Ft);Trek Down To Pokhara (884M/2900Ft)

      Ghorepani, aptly named "water for horses," is our final stop on the Annapurna Classic Trek. Here, the Himalayas deliver a breathtaking farewell performance before we depart.


      An hour-long, pre-dawn climb takes us up a steep path to Poon Hill. Despite the frosty chill, the reward is a panoramic vista unlike any other. Southwards, the plains stretch endlessly, while northwesterly to northeasterly, a stunning line of peaks unfolds, from Dhaulagiri to Manaslu. Poon Hill boasts views of three giants: Dhaulagiri I (worldโ€™s 7th highest), Manaslu, and Annapurna (10th). After soaking in this unforgettable sight, we descend towards Pokhara for our final nightโ€™s stay.
