Panch Pokhari is named after 5 holy ponds and Hindus religiously
respect the
place. Just northeast of Kathmandu toward snow wall, the beautiful
Himalayan
view and pristine nature with distinct culture is the most attraction of
the
trek. After we eat breakfast at the restaurant near by our office, we
take a bus
ride out of the Valley and up through the hills. After 5 hours bus ride
we
arrive at the trek starting point called Chautara. We are going to spend
the
first night of our outdoor adventure right nearby small town in a
ground. Our
Guide gives a short lesson of trekking on the first night. He also
explains
about the altitude sickness and all the beautiful spots from where you
can see
an excellent view of mountains.
During the rest of our 12 days trip, we observe the different ways of
life,
culture and come in contact with the people in the small village,
passing
through the dense forestations and meadows. The top of Panch Pokhari (5
lakes)
offers an excellent view of Jugal Himal range, Rolwaling range,
Gosainkunda etc.
On the last day of the trip we take a bus ride back to Kathmandu from
Melamchi
where we spend the final night of our trip.
