About Khopra Danda Trek - 11 Days

/Khopra Danda/Khopra Danda Trek-2023

Khopra Danda Ridge Trek Known as Mulde Hill Trek. This Trek offers a superb view of the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri mountains. It is a virgin trekking route in the Annapurna area. Khopra Danda trek is a less crowded and short trek but diverse of Nepal with the varied life of the diverse ethnic groups, walking through lush forests and the beauty of the Dhaulagiri, Annapurna, and  Nilgiri Himal. We achieve these highlights while staying predominantly at low altitudes where the temperature remains moderate but with some higher altitude experience. It includes the Pokhara Valley with its panoramic views of Machhapuchhare (Fish Tail) and the Annapurna massif, picturesque  Magar and Gurung villages of the hills, and the rhododendron forested ridge lines that provide stunning vantage points for views of the highest peaks. The views from Kopra Ridge are spectacular, taking you close to the peaks of Annapurna and Dhaulagiri with the unique view of the deepest gorge in the world (7000m) and the opportunity to visit the sacred lake of Khaire high up near the base of Annapurna.
The Mulde Hill Trek pace is relaxed to ensure that the trek is comfortably achievable by trekkers of average fitness for their age, but as you would expect, there are some steep uphill sections and narrow tracks. The optional day’s trek to Lake Kaire is a long and strenuous one with the possibility of crossing over frozen mountain rivers. However, those who take this side trip have found it to be most rewarding both for its views and spirituality.
