JUMLA - RARA LAKE TREK (16 days)

‘Off the beaten track’ trek in the far west wilderness of Nepal – 16 days

This trek through the remote wilderness of western Nepal offers a superb experience of nature and a
visit to Rara Lake, Nepal's Largest Lake at 3062 meters. Beginning the trek from the mountain airstrip
of Jumla after flying from Kathmandu via Nepalgunj, the trail passes through green countryside which
provides unusual glimpses of a culture and scenery quite different from that found elsewhere in
Nepal and which eventually culminates to the Rara Lake National Park. This beautiful high altitude
lake is surrounded by alpine meadows and forests of pine, juniper and spruce, whilst in the
background you can view the magnificent snow-capped peaks of the Himalayas. The entire route is
'off the beaten track' which involves the crossing of Ghurchi Lagna pass at 3450m on the way to Rara
Lake and a few ridges at around 3000 meters when hiking on the way back.

Any physically fit person can do this moderate trek anytime in March to May and October to early
December
