Detailed Route Guide

Connecting the village of Birethanti to Ghorepani, this 91.5 km route is a highly popular path for both locals and international travelers. You will be ascending from an elevation of 1025m up to 2874m into the mountainous regions of Gandaki. The air gets noticeably thinner and crisper as you ascend into the highlands. With no direct flights available, the route is entirely overland. You can take a standard bus for budget travel (from $4) or hire a jeep for a faster, albeit bumpier, ride taking roughly 2.4 hours.

Important Health Tip: Since you are ascending to 2874m, drink plenty of water and allow your body time to acclimatize to prevent altitude sickness (AMS).
