The trail passes Baglung and Jomsom before following the Seti River. A short hike leads to Mardipul, where you can enjoy a beautiful sunrise view of the Annapurna Himalaya.

Follow the Seti River through small Brahmin and Chhetri villages. Cross the river and head north through Lhachok and Ghachok, with stunning views of terraced farmlands. A gentle climb through a narrowing V-shaped gorge brings us to the Gurung village of Khairapani (Dhipang), where we camp for the night.

The trail passes through the Gurung village of Chyaglung before descending to the Sardi Khola for lunch. Afterward, ascend steeply to Kyabrang village and continue uphill to our scenic campsite at Ghale Kharka, offering magnificent views of Annapurna and Machhapuchhre (Fishtail Mountain).

Trek through a densely forested ridge separating the Seti and Mardi Valleys, passing through oak, rhododendron, and bamboo forests. This trail is ideal for birdwatching. After lunch, ascend to a high ridge before a gentle descent to our campsite at Baradhara.

After breakfast, ascend through lush forests towards Siklis, the largest Gurung village in the Annapurna region. Siklis has a long history of producing soldiers for the British and Indian armies. The village is surrounded by breathtaking views of Lamjung Himal (6,986m), creating a spectacular backdrop. Our campsite is located above the village, offering stunning sunset and sunrise views.

Spend the day exploring Siklis, immersing yourself in Gurung culture and traditional village life. Interact with locals, learn about their customs, and possibly meet retired soldiers.

Descend through fields before a steep stone staircase leads into a small valley near Rupa Tal (Lake). Walk through rice fields, then ascend a ridge separating Begnas Tal and Rupa Tal, offering stunning views of both lakes. Finally, descend to Begnas Bazaar and drive for 30 minutes to Pokhara, where we stay overnight.
