    Mountain Calls : How I Spent The Best 10 Days Of My Life Trekking Annapurna Circuit !

    Aug 8, 2016 /

    It had only been a few weeks since I got back from the Mardi Base Camp trail. The phone rang and a voice from the other side said, “bhai, Annapurna round circuit handim nata dajubhai”. When one Ghumante says to another, “Let’s hit the Annapurna Round Circuit trail”, you just don’t say NO. The buzzing of World’s Highest crossable pass “Thorong la”, Tilicho lake, the whole of the Annapurna Range to walk side by side, soul craving for adventure, my heart was already up there in the mountains. Bags packed. Our hearts were aching to roam in the mountain’s high, and we were ready to roll. The first stop of…

    Backpacker’s Valentine

    May 8, 2016 /

    May you never be too busy to go to Mountains…. The Heart beats and the Mind wanders. My soul craves to roam somewhere else leaving my physical body. Longing for adventures to come. Thrills of joy .Somewhere far away, pathless woods awaiting. This kills me. Maybe its time for me to leave, to go away from everything, the crowd, noise, attachments, just everything that’s around. Bored,restless; I can’t breathe here anymore. Screaming Echoes in my head . Dead, I feel inside. Numb,nothing left. Stuck,drained. Storm in my calm mind, fire in my burning soul and a mess in my eyes. Always dreamed  of living. Frustrated, baffled. Running, awaiting storm, dwelling…

    Mardi Base Camp Calls

    Feb 4, 2016 /

    Like every other October that passes by, this one was filled with buzz and excitement too. The mountains were calling and I was ready to roll. Not everyone answers to the calls from the mountains – but no matter how much we want to deny the desire to travel, there is an element of curiosity in all of us. Join us on this amazing trek to Mardi Base Camp within the laps of Machapuchhre and Mardi Himal (Mountain). A four-day trek that commenced with three people soon turned into eight people. As they say, you will find heaps of like-minded people while traveling and so did we. The three of…

    Landruk Trek

    Aug 20, 2015 /

    “Where Next?” Pokhara is beautiful not just because of what’s inside, but also because of all the Places surrounding Pokhara. I would recommend a place that follows few kilometres away from the center, following the Baglung Highway. If you are in Pokhara for a short period of time and can’t resist exploring around, “Trip to Landruk” is an ideal one for you. It offers you the best view of Annapurna range, sunrise and sunset, traditional Gurung culture, and on top of all that, a peace of mind, away from the city hustle bustle.  The best part about this trip; it takes only 48 hours of your life to gain a memory of a lifetime.

    Jun 29, 2015 /

    As they said “Respond to every call that excites your Spirit”. Six people, four days. Goodly hills were already welcoming us with smile in their eyes while we were on course to Dhunche. Tiredness we felt during jumpy bus ride went hiding somewhere when we saw red rhododendron filing the hillside with its charm.   A quick call to start the hike from Dhunche resulted walk of 5 hours in lofty trails. Walk on those trails was hard nevertheless seeing Deers roaming around freely made us forget leg pains we were having. We called it a night when we reached Dhimsa at 7:30 pm. The night was surprisingly cozy with…

३ नम्बर पुलकाे सेकुवा ! (The BBq at 3 Number Pul)!
While we were in Amlekhganj, we took a short trip towards 3 Number Pul, just for its famous Sekuwa or Bbq and food. We heard a lot about the great food they serve here. When we reached there, the number of Trucks parked along side the highway and stopping here for a quick lunch/snack break assured us. And of course, it was delicious when we tried it. Have you ever tried the Sekuwas from this place?

It takes around one and a half hours to reach Tangting from Pokhara and it's always fun on the way. Although we've been there so many times, this was the first time we stopped at the "Mara Nama" or the Golden Cat Hill (2nd pic). Then there's the terraced fields, green hills, rivers along the way. Finally, Tangting village is a joy to stay on it's own with its beautiful houses and Gurung culture.

Tangting Waterfall! About 15-30 mins away from the Tangting Waterfall!
About 15-30 mins away from the village of Tangting, this beautiful waterfall is long and cascaded. We'd seen its top half on our earlier trip, but this side is much more beautiful. The hike can be rough but once  we got there, it all felt worth it.

We tasted the Egg Rolls, Pani Puri, Pav Bhaji and Chatpates but the shops were in small numbers as compared to the other big cities of Terai. Maybe, we weren't on the right street.

If you follow our route via Kalikot, the whole trip can be done within 7-8 days. And the landscape you'll witness is literally breathtaking.

Every season has its own unique feature at Krapu Dada. The dry spell of winter turns the whole landscape into a barren dry orange patch which feels somehow dull. But not very long after the whole area transforms into vibrant palette of red, maroon, pink and shades of red, as the rhododendrons start to bloom. We visited Krapu for this very specific reason and we were blown away by its beauty.
