Day 14 Sayauli bazar (1210m)
Approx. trekking time: 4 hrs
Drive about 1hrs to Nayapool Trek to trekking starting point. Our first days walk is particularly easy, following the sub-tropical Modi Khola river valley to Birethanti, a large village on the old Nepal- Tibet trading route. Through terraced rice paddies to Chimrong and then to the very pretty village of Syauli and our overnight halt. Here we enjoy superb views of the great peaks of Annapurna South and Machhapuchhare, seen to the north standing guard over the entrance of the Annapurna Sanctuary

Day 15 Ghandruk (1950m)
Approx. trekking time: 5 hrs
A steady ascent brings us up high above the river valley. To the north there are again superb views of the Annapurna mountains. A short but steep section leads to Kimche (1630m) where we can enjoy a drink and a well-deserved rest. We then continue on to Chane on a wide, well-defined, path of stone flags that contours through fields of wheat and millet to the largest village of the region, Ghandruk. This Gurung village is well known for the number of its men folk who have served in the British Gurkha regiments. Our lodge is located in the heart of the village where we enjoy fine mountain views, in particular Annapurna South (7237m), Machhapuchhare (6993m) and Gangapurna (7455m).

Day 16 Tadapani (2700m)
Approx. trekking time: 4 hrs
Another day ascending but an easier walk now that we have found our trekking legs! We enter oak and rhododendron forest. This is a particularly beautiful part of the walk, the forest often alive with the sound of birds, the small tumbling waterfalls and if you visit in Spring (late March to April), the rhododendrons in full bloom. There are no villages on today’s route but there are a few teahouses at Baisi Kharkha providing welcome drinks and a place to rest. There are fine views of Annapurna II (7937m), Annapurna III (7555m), Annapurna IV (7525m), Annapurna South, Machhapuchhare and Lamjung Himal (6931m) along the way. Our lodge at Tadapani is the perfect setting for sunset and sunrise views.

Day 17 Deurali (2987m)
Approx. trekking time: 4 hrs
We weak up early to view the sunrise and after breakfast we descend to a small stream and then begin a series of up and down through rhododendron forest that is particularly spectacular during March and April when the trees are in flower. We reach Bhantanti, a group of small Tea houses, for an early lunch and in the afternoon cross a series of small streams ascending through forest to reach the open ridges at Deurali (2987m). Here we stop for the day, enjoying fantastic panoramic views of the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri ranges if conditions are clear. You should not miss the opportunity to see the spectacular sunset and sunrise views from the hill behind our lodge. This is a highlight of the trip and it is really worthwhile making the effort of going in both the evening and morning as both times offer a different perspective of the mountain view.

Day 18 Uleri (2780m)
Approx. trekking time: 6 hs
We get up early and walk by torchlight before dawn, climb up the ridge to enjoy sunrise over the mountains. In fine conditions a magical panorama, including the three 8000-metre peaks of Dhaulagiri I (8167m), Annapurna I (8019m) and Manalsu (8156m) dominate the horizon. Views of the 6000-metre-deep Kali Gandaki Gorge and the trans-Himalayan ranges forming the border of Nepal with Tibetan China make this one of Nepal's best vantage points. After enjoying the sunrise we descend to the lodge for a late breakfast and then continue on down to Ghorepani (2780m), an important stopover on the old trading route to Tibet. From Ghorepani the walk is all down hill, through beautiful forests to the village of Naya Thanti where we take lunch. In the afternoon we will again descend through oak and rhododendron forest, to the village of Ulleri perched high on the hillside overlooking the Bhurungdi Khola valley.

Day 19 Pokhara
Approx. trekking time: 5 hrs
Another early start to make the most of the day. From our lodge at Ulleri there is a very steep descent of over 500 meters to the Bhurungdi Khola River where we cross a small suspension bridge to reach the village of Tirkedunga. We continue on a more gentle descent to the village of Birethanti on the banks of the Modi Khola. Here we take lunch and then cross the new bridge to the east bank; from here follow the river back to the road-head at Naya Pool. After saying farewell to our porters we transfer by coach back to Pokhara
