Are you in search of a short and less crowded trekking route in the Annapurna region? Do you wish to spend a substantial amount of time in the serene Himalayas and escape from busy city life? Mohare Danda Trek is one of those treks that can full fill your desires. The route map of the Mohare Danda Trek was developed by Nepalese scientist ‘Mahabir Pun’. It is an eco-community lodge trek that was opened for tourists in 2010. You can experience the allure of the mountains, nature, and culture at their most tranquil on our 10-day Mohare Danda Trek itinerary.
Mohare Danda is a beautiful hill station situated at 3,300 meters above between the massif Mt. Annapurna and Dhaulagiri gorge. The trek takes you through the impressive local villages, alpine forests and rivers originated from the mountains. Once you get to Mohare danda, the sunrise and sunset views over the glittering mountains will make you forget all of your life’s problems.
It is the first community-based trek introduced to travelers in the history of Nepal tourism. So, every day you will stay at the typical homestays that are run by the local community on this route. This off-the-beaten trek in Nepal is for those hikers who are looking for an alternative route for the Ghorepani Poon Hill trek.
You can enjoy spectacular views of the mountains such as Mt. Annapurna (8,091m), Dhaulagiri (8,172m), and Nilgiri (70,61m) from the Mohare vantage point. Even more, you can also get an opportunity to explore the ethnic people’s cultures, traditions, and their livelihoods. It’s an amazing experience to walk through a forest of oak, bamboo, and pine trees on this trek.
Great fun. Definitely recommended for anyone who loves nature, crisp air and hiking. A hike that is not too difficult to try, just over 3300m. The mountains are amazing, lodging generally is good with nice bed(which is really critically after a day long hike). Food is also quite nice and simple.
The guide and porter are really friendly, fun and knowledgeable, sharing with us to know more about Nepal, the mountains the culture, the people… although the weather was a bit unpredictable and the rain does makes it tougher to hike and clouds the views of the mountains.
The car journey on the Jeep is unbelievable bumpy and super uncomfortable, anyone with a back problem has to be more careful.
Overall, a fantastic trip and wonderful time up in the mountains
