Khopra Danda or Khopra ridge sits at an elevation of 3660 meters from the sea level, in the Myagdi District of Nepal. Khopra ridge falls in the Annapurna region and is developing as a viewpoint for the mountains in the Annapurna region.

The views of Dhaulagiri (8167m.), Tukuche peak, Thapa peak, Nilgiris, Baraha Shikhar and Annapurna South and sunrise and sunset over these snow clad peak is a life altering scenery.

The ridge has one community owned lodge, which is opened year around. In case of these rooms being full, the community as well offers tents and camping ground.
