From Beni, Darbang is about 3 hours of ride on an off-road. This ride in a private jeep is going to be rather exciting. Then we reach Dharapani for a quick stop. After a short break, we get our bags ready and commence the trip.

The next part of the trip is a rather relaxing walk on a mostly leveled path. Since it’s your first trekking day, the couple of hours of trek feels quite easy today. We crash at a small homestay in Dharapani and enjoy our dinner.

From Dharapani we trek along the streams and waterfalls on a leveled path. We stop at midday for our packed lunch and then walk to Lamsung. Lamsung will be reached in the early evening, giving us enough time to set up the camps.

This is a difficult day for walking as we gain a lot of altitude. Although the ascent is difficult, the beautiful landscape takes our hearts away. This area is mostly covered in tropical forest and the chances of spotting the rear wildlife are great. In between the forest, you can see a glimpse of Dhaulagiri, Chure, and Putha.

This is an exciting day of the trek. We leave Tallo Jaljale and walk on a rather short and leveled trail. The trek is only about 5 hours long and since we lose some altitude, the walking gets easier. We set a camp and settled down at Dhorpatan quite early in the evening.

Now our plan is to stay quiet and go for some hunting. We set our camps and practice some skills for hunting. As per the restriction, you are only allowed to hunt one animal at a time. We cover as many blocks as possible. Make sure you capture some exciting pictures of the wildlife and yourself.

 Alternatively, we can also plan a trek to Phagune Phedi on the 1st or the 2nd rest day. If you are bored of waiting for animals or hunting, this tour to Phagune Phedi can be quite exciting. It is about 4,400m above sea level, and the risk of attitude fitness is also high. So, instead of completing the trek in a single day, we can camp around Phagune Phedi for one more night.

 After a good sum of leisure time, we walk to the Jungle camp in the evening of the 3rd day. This makes our trek to Gurjaghat on the other day easier.

This is a rather relaxing walk on the forested trails on a leveled path. We step our camps at Gurjaghat for the evening at around 3000 meters.

Another fun day of walking as we walk down to the longer altitude. We leave Gurjaghat only in the late morning and walk for about 5 hours to reach Patichaur. At an elevation of 900 meters, this is a fun place to spend a night.
