Mid Western part of Nepal is rich in culture and its beautiful snow caped mountain. Panchase trekking is also one of them and it can be extended in several ways. From Panchase hill it is possible to trek through the large Gurung village of Arthor and continues on to Kakinada. Panchase trekking is based on basic accommodation but we will have our own Camping gear and will stay in tent. The choice then is to trek to Kusma, on the Baglung highway in one day from where a bus can be taken back to Pokhara.

Another possibility is to trek from Panchase back to Pokhara via the ridge that runs through the villages of Bhumdi and Pumdi. By taking this route we are able to complete the trek at the peace Stupa above Phewa Tal and then descend to the lake and reach lake side by boat. This route gives excellent views of the Himalaya with Phewa Tal in the foreground. No tea houses are available until the peace Stupa is reached.

During the Panchase trekking, language is not a big problem as many of the local people can communicate in English. There are many different ethnic groups along the trail, but the predominant people in this area are the Gurungs.

For several days we will travel off the main tourist trail to Panchase, and on the third day we climb towards Panchase danda (2250m) for the spectacular views of Dhaulagiri, Annapurna I, II, III, IV, Lamjung Himal and Manaslu.

The easiest access to Panchase is from the village of Badauri, which can be reached on foot or vehicle from Naudanda on the Baglung highway.
