Tour Details

Nestled high and remote in the far west of Nepal, this region is stunningly beautiful. Stretching from the Kaliganga to the Indian frontier in the west, all the way to the Dhaulagiri Himal in the east, the hilly terrain drained by the Karnali River and its tributaries represents the most untamed, secluded, and seldom trekked part of Nepal. Sheltered from the monsoon rains by the Dhaulagiri and Annapurna Himalayas, it receives much less rainfall, resulting in a relatively dry landscape that is less cultivated and thinly populated. Culturally and geographically cut off from the rest of the country, access to this trek typically involves flying into Nepalgunj on a twin otter aircraft.
