The trek start at Barabise
after 4 hours drive from Kathmandu. You will come across
some villages mainly inhabited by Tamangs, Sherpas,
and Brahmins. They are beautiful and people are so friendly.
We can see few monasteries and Temples along the way.
A good view of the Mountains and Sunkoshi River can
also be seen. After crossing Sherpa villages you come
across a thick forest with lots of Rhododendron trees
and continue to Kalinchowk. From the highest altitude
of Kalinchok (3579meters) one can get excellent view
of Annapurna, Lamjung, Manaslu, Ganesh Himal, Shisha
Panga , Langtang, Dorjee Lakpa, Jugal Himal, Amabamori,
Gauri Shanker and Namburi Himal. There is also a prominent
temple of the Hindus called the Kali temple. Two natural
springs originate from this area which are called Sundhara
and Tama which are the main source of the very big two
rivers the Sunkoshi and Tama Koshi rivers. From Kalinchowk
we can also get a good view of Kathmandu valley at night.
The national flowers of Nepal Rhododendron (Laligurans)
and the national bird Pheasant (Danfe) can also be seen
in this area. While descending to Suspa you could get
to see a very rare community in Nepal called "The
Thami." The trek ends at Charikot, which is also
a district head quarters. Trekkers carry only daypack
