The Dhaulagiri Circuit + Base Camp Trek

"Traversing through a high remote pass in between the giant snow capped peaks"

This is an enthralling and varied trek, which includes a taste of combined trekking environments which Nepal has to offer. Starting from the low farmlands to the green fertile grasslands & into the arid and treeless valleys. From the dense forests of the lower part of the valley to high snow crested ridge and callous ice fields. This trip also offers excellent and rare views of both the Dhaulagiri and the Annapurna massifs. The trek is even more special; culturally. The villages and the hidden valleys are particularly memorable, giving picturesque examples of the less frequented settlements with its charming inhabitants that are still quite unused to the scene of the passing by trekking groups. This is certainly an overwhelming trek from the remote west of Dhaulagiri to the main popular Trans Himalayan Salt Trade route and through the world's deepest gorge of Kali Gandaki Valley which finally concludes this wonderful adventure at Pokhara via the scenic routes of Annapurna area.
