The day starts early by taking a vehicle out of Pokhara. The drive takes around one and half hours to Nayapul and then the Annapurna Sanctuary trek officially starts on foot from here onwards.

It is very beautiful to see the landscape change on this day, the barren ridge turns into sparse trees, which further turns into dense subtropical forest. We would as well traverse through dense forest of Rhododendron and pine. These forested land is a home of wild habitats like langoor monkeys, barking deer and different species of birds.

On this day we make approximately 550 m ascent and 710m descent at around 4-5 hours of trek. But before initiating the day’s trek we take a short hike to Poon hill; a grassy knoll famous as viewpoint. We leave our teahouse at Ghorepani by 5:00 a.m. in the morning to witness sunrise over the mountains of Annapurna massif. On this day we have breakfast at 9:00 a.m. and immediately leave for Tadapani. We walk on the trail that is almost entirely in the middle of Rhododendron and oak forest and walk sheer uphill all the way to Deurali. The view of Annapurna gamut and the deepest gorge; Kaligandaki, from Deurali as well is unparalleled. Further downhill from Deurali and except for some treacherous descend the walk is smooth and crosses some streams with swimming prospect along with some beautiful water fall.
