Jomsom trek covers the ancient Nepal Tibet trade route and is one of the most famous and classic trek. Great mountain scenes, exotic ancient villages, and the Tibet like terrain of Mustang have made this trek ever popular. The mountain scenes from some points on the trek are breathtaking and you also can visit a hot spring along the way.


The trek begins after passing the suspension bridge on the Modi Khola river. Exploring the the peeking summits of Machhapuchare and Annapurna south we reach Ghorepani on the 2nd day. Another morning we climb the nearby Poon hill for first great view of the Himalayan Panorama. We also explore the hotspring at Tatopani and further ascend through beautiful hill villages of Marpha and Tukche.Walking along the Kaligandaki gorge, the deepest in the world, we reach the mountain town of Jomsom which has good facilities and a airstrip and offers spectacular mountain view. The village of Kagbeni and Jharkot are two famous places we pass through before reaching Muktinath. Kagbeni is an ancient trading village with amazing buildings. Jharkot is an old ruined fort. Our final destination Muktinath is a pilgrimmage site for both Hindus and the Buddhists on the high Himalaya. Not only the pilgrims and the temple, but also the views from Muktinatinath are great. Next day we return to Jomsom where we will catch our flight for Pokhara. Back in Kathmandu we will celebrate your memorable trek with Nepali dinner and ethnic cultural show.
