It takes about 9 hours of rough tough driving along the Prithvi highway and Trisuli River bank and only 35 minutes by domestic flight. Prithvi Highway is connected as the main highway to the western part of Nepal and the Terai region. So it is overcrowded and takes a longer time. Terrace field/Landscape view, local culture and tradition, mountains view, harvesting crops, etc are perfect glimpses that make a day wonderful. Overnight at a hotel in Pokhara
Breakfast will be at 7:00 AM and then drive to Kande by private car for about 1.5 hours. Your trek will start from Kande and upward to the Australian camp. Mt. Fishtail and the whole Annapurna Range Mountains including the Mt. Manaslu view will make the trek interesting. Australian camp via Pothana to Bichok Deurali is quite comfortable walking through the forest. Bichok Deurali (2200mtr) is a small settlement with some lodges; it offers a very nice view of Mt. Fishtail and Mt. Dhaulagiri.
We start our trekking after breakfast. The path goes through the deep Himalayan forest such as rhododendron, fir tree, Hemlock, bamboo, etc. It is a very comfortable walk with minimal up and down to Forest camp. Forest camp is a big area with several tourist lodges, we make lunch break here. The path leads mostly upward from Forest camp to Low camp through the deep rhododendron forest.
The day would be so interesting because of the mountain views. You walk upward along the ridge with a full panoramic view. Mt. Annapurna South and Hiuchuli seem like a mirror in front of us with other several mountains. We will make a break at Badaldanda, which is known as a 360-degree mountain views vantage point.
Mardi Himal basecamp is very popular for sheep, goats, Cows, and yak pastureland. Small huts are everywhere up there in the pastureland. They offer hot tea, coffee, and Nepalese-style breakfast as well. It takes up and down approximately 4 hours of hiking, back to the hotel at Highcamp for lunch then return to Badal Danda 3400mtr.1.5 hours
The morning views from Badaldanda are probably the most romantic natural scenery in my lifetime. Today we have long descended through the rhododendron forest via Low camp, Forest camp to Kalimati, and jeep drive to Pokhara. Overnight at a hotel in Pokhara
