Mohare Danda Community Trek is an eco-trail in the foothills of Annapurna. For now, we can call this trek an off-beaten-path trek from Pokhara. Mohare Danda Eco Trek is a newly opened trekking route in Annapurna Region, and very few people compare it to the Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek. If you are scared of crowds and looking for a peaceful trek, Rugged Trails Nepal suggests Mohare Danda.

A short Mohare Danda trek starts from Pokhara, and the trip itinerary ends at Pokhara. Basically, this trek is another great alternative trekking trail in Ghorepani Poonhill. Perhaps you are familiar with Mahabir Pun, who received the Magsaysay Award, which some people refer to as the Nobel Prize of Asia. For this community, trek credit goes to the community leader, Mahabir Pun, and a certain percentage of the amount goes to the community for schools and information centers. Doesn't it sound amazing that the Fun Travel amount goes to the community, which is helping hands?

Talking about the Mohare Danda Community Trek is amazingly beautiful, with the landscapes and the magical mountain view. During the springtime, we can see beautiful rhododendron flowers, which are also a national flower of Nepal. The trail itself describes that the community cultures and experiencing the local lifestyle are another attraction of this trek. From Mohare Hill (3300 m), we can see Dhaulagiri Mt., Fishtail, Annapurna South, Tukuche Peak, Annapurna 1, Nilgiri, and the other Himalayas. We can't compare this trek to Ghorepani Poonhill or any other easier trek because every trekking trail has its own characteristics. To see the mountain views closer within a short day, book the Mohare Danda Trek.

Rugged Trails Nepal offers the best selling treks from Pokhara, Mohare Danda Group, and private trips organized all around the year. We haven't added Kathmandu hotels, sightseeing, transpiration from Kathmandu to Kathmandu, or hotels in Pokhara, but on request, we will arrange it. We need a minimum of one working day to get the trekking permits and arrange guides. We do limited trips with experienced guides, and your investment in this trip with us will be worthy because we create the moments rather than scaling the heights. There are other high-adventure trips on Scale the Height, but we have picked the local guides depending on the region and the theme of the adventure. If you have heard about the Karkabeli Eco Trek, this is the trek that can be started from the Karkabeli Homestay, and the trek follows Mohare Danda and Ghorepani Poon Hill.

What makes this tour very interesting

  • Panoramic Mountain views.
  • Community trek in Nepal.
  • Authentic lifestyle experience.
  • Fewer people are on this trail.
  • Sunrises, landscapes, and forests
