This trek will take you through the
Pokhara Valley with its panoramic views of
Machhapuchhare and the Annapurna massif, the picturesque
Gurung villages of the hills and the rhododendron
forested ridge lines that provide stunning vantage
points for views of the highest peaks. The views of the
Himalaya from the high point of this section, Panchase
Peak (2540m)are among Nepal's best.
You will then spend two days rafting down the Seti
River. This is a gentle river by rafting standards but
offers some exciting rapid sections and a very scenic
journey with interesting views of village life along the
way. You will camp for two nights on the banks of the
river.
Chitwan National Park offers you the opportunity of
seeing some of Nepal's wildlife. While in Chitwan you
will be busily involved in a number of activities, such
as elephant rides through the park, walks on the many
trails with Park Nature Guides, talks on elephants and
demonstrations of elephant training. |
