Overview

Overview

Royal Trekking is an easy and short trek that offers good mountain views. It got its name when after Prince Charles of the UK and his entourage of 90 guests trekked through this area in the 1980s. Many trekkers do not frequent the route. It is, however, a lovely walk and not complicated with some beautiful views of the Annapurna range in the background.

This six-day trek commences from Pokhara, the valley of lakes offering panoramic views of the Annapurna massif and the Manaslu Himal. This is the best trek for those who want to experience village life and striking mountain views in a relatively short period.

This is the ideal walk that fits and expands to spend more days like a week's holiday in this complete Royal trekking in Nepal if you're looking for a pleasurable and straightforward trek with gorgeous mountain views without straining yourself. You will be blessed with stunning Himalayan views as you stroll through the rhododendron trees. Just breathtaking is the expansive vista of the Pokhara valley, the northern Annapurna range, and Mt. Fishtail. You will pass through several ethnically varied settlements on the way there.

The activities available in Pokhara range from magical caverns to enigmatic waterfalls and magnificent paragliding. The city is known for its boating, shopping, and Himalayan views. Even though there are modern structures and facilities there, the area tends to be more natural. Anyone has the chance to experience the traditional methods of life of the clans, whose outdated strict traditions and conventions have remained unchanged for a very long time, thanks to this Royal tour, which presents a true image of eliteness.

Those with limited time who want to explore the Mountains can consider the Royal Trek. It's a short walk with a few ups and downs here and there. The only prerequisite is a basic level of health given that Syaglung is where we reach our highest altitude of 1730m.
