Itinerary

Drive from Kathmandu to Sotikhola [710m/2328 ft] 8 - 9 hours

After an early breakfast, we get moving early today for Sotikhola. In the course of the drive, we enjoy views of Nepalese rural life along with some lovely mountain scenery. We will be driving on a tarred road from Kathmandu to Dhading Bensi, district headquarters of Dhading (1050m) but the drive from Dhanding Bensi to Arughat will be on a rough road. On reaching Arughat, a major town in the region we drive further towards Sotikhola. Overnight at Soti Khola in a teahouse lodge.

Soti Khola - Maccha Khola [900m/2952 ft]: 6 - 7 hours

The landscapes change as we go higher, the wide valley narrows and at times the trail cuts into the steep valley which is densely forested. Then we pass a number of small villages tucked into the hillside, until we reach a widening of this valley, on our opposite where a large tributary stream enters the Buri Gandaki. The terraced farmland here belongs to the village of Lapbesi. We descend once again to the wider section, sandy Riverbank and follow a path, which runs below the steep, craggy valley path. In the end, we have to climb up once again to get to Machhakhola, which has a number of teashops.

Maccha Khola -Jagat [1410m/ 4625 ft]: 6 - 7 hrs

We cross over Machha Khola and head upstream to the tiny village of Khola Bensi and the hot springs at Tatopani. The whole valley here becomes steeper to the limits till the route to cross then switches to the left bank by a suspension bridge. The trekking trail is quite exposed and challenging in some places. After a short section of forest trail, we reach a single teahouse at Doban. Above Doban village, the Buri Gandaki descends with some notable flowing of rapids. Beyond this hard steep section, the River is much more placid, meandering across a wide gravel bank and from Lauri, we will cross the River by hiking over an airy suspension bridge, and then climb on a high trail to the fields of Jagat for the night.
