Gurja Himal trek via Baglung Overview

This trek is for the adventurous trip ideal for rural area hiking experience seekers in Nepal. It takes the long route to Dhorpatan and Hidden Village, beginning the trek from the district town of Baglung. This trekking involves many ups and downs and twists and turns imposed by the demanding topography of Baglung District, which will give you an appreciation for the challenging lives of rural families. You are very unlikely to meet other foreign visitors and trekkers along the route; home stays and teahouse lodges are few, and you may well have to find your own home stay arrangements.
