2. which is made to develop and support the local community along the route. Moreover,
Mohare Danda Trekking is also the best way to give back to locals and trek eco-
friendly. The trek offers beautiful views, remote villages, dense forests, and friendly
locals.
The trail ascends through dense forests of rhododendron, oak, fir, pine, etc., and passes
by orange orchards. While staying for a night in the villages, you will get to see the
simple lifestyle of the locals and their distinct culture, traditions, and norms. The trek
offers stunning views of the Annapurna Range (8,091 m) and Dhaulagiri Range (8,167 m).
Likewise, from the top of the Mohare Danda, which is a hill, you can see the tempting
landscape, gorgeous sunrise/sunset, and other snow-capped peaks like Mt. Nilgiri (7,061
m), Mt. Tukuche (6,920 m), Mt. Machhapuchhre (6,993 m), etc.
The Mohare Danda Khopra Trek begins with a scenic drive from Kathmandu to
Pokhara that further continues to Galeshwar, the starting point of the trek. The trail
then gradually ascends through a forested path and a few steep sections. You pass by
villages like Banskharka and Nadi Village before reaching Mohare Danda. The trail then
descends to Nayapul, where the trek ends, and you will drive back to Pokhara.
Mohare Danda Trek is the best way to have a short retreat and take you away from the
bustle of the city. The trail is not crowded because not many trekkers know about this
route, and it presents a tranquil and peaceful journey. Mohare Danda Trekking is also a
good alternative to the famous Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek. You can check our Mohare
Danda Trek map to know in detail about the Mohare Danda Trek Itinerary and route. For

Mohare Danda Trek Best Time
The best time to do Mohare Danda Trek is from March to April- spring, and October to
November- autumn. These two seasons are considered perfect for trekking to Mohare
Danda because of stable weather and a pleasant climate. The temperature remains
moderate with clear views and bright sunny days. You will feel a little cold in the
mornings and nights. Likewise, in spring, the trail blooms up with numerous floras, and
autumn has its festive scent to it.
Monsoon and winter are the off-seasons. The trail gets muddy and slippery, along with
high chances of landslides in the monsoon. Likewise in winter, thick layers of fog block
the views, and heavy snowfall increases the chances of blockage of the trail.
Mohare Danda Trek Weather
The post-monsoon period (autumn): The region sees a decrease in rainfall from early
September. The climate begins to get colder as the subsequent months arrive with
warm days and cold nights/mornings. The daily temperature ranges from 0 °C to 30 °C.
Usually, in late November, the temperature begins to fall below -0 °C. Likewise, the days
start to get shorter.
The pre-monsoon period (spring): From March onwards, the region begins to warm
along with carrying a hint of coldness in the air at nights/mornings. There can be
occasional rainstorms in the afternoon. The temperature during the daytime can touch
up to 30 °C, or more in the lower in lower elevation. The higher parts of the trail are
mostly covered with snow. The surrounding welcomes diverse vegetation, and greenery
begins to evolve.

get the best available accommodation while trekking with us. The accommodation
offers basic services like room (mostly shared room), private/shared washrooms, and

outcome to the local people for their welfare and holistic community development.
