Jomsom Trekking
 The Jomsom Trek, a part of the Annapurna circuit is in deed a classical trek which follows the Kali Gandaki valley between two popular peaks-Annapurna and Dhaulagiri. And it stretches to the northern part of the Himalayan range, Tibetan Plateau which is very dry and desert-like area. The diversities of land and indigenous Nepali cultures found along with its route reflects the true Nepalese rural life.
 After passing Jomsom, several days will take until the final destination until –Muktinath, the holy temple of Hindus and Buddhists. The Jomsom trek starts and end in Nayapul, nearly one hour travel from Pokhara. Walking through the gorge carved the "Kali Gandaki" river which is joined the Ganges in India is the main charm of this trek. We can take a flight from Jomsom to Pokhara. This trek can be recommended for all the year round even if most of this trek is always held in the rain shadow.
