Overview

Dhaulagiri Circuit Trek is a backbreaking, and a genuine experience for experienced travelers who are searching for an undertaking like an encounter. From cultivating towns in the Himalayan lower regions to high elevated fields, uninhabited valleys, and close-up perspectives on a few tops more than 8,000 m, this circuit journey is amazing and energizing at each stage.

Beni is the beginning stage of the Dhaulagiri Circuit from where you follow the Myagdi Khola waterway. From Dhaulagiri Base Camp at the foot of the north face, your journey up the side of the glacial mass and over the French Col to enter Hidden Valley. This is a distant valley at a high height. The intersection of this valley gives Dhaulagiri Circuit's journey a greater amount of an energizing campaign feel. You at that point make a precarious drop down to Jomsom, where you will meet adventurers from the Annapurna Circuit trail. At Jomsom, you bounce into a plane to fly back to Pokhara and venture out onwards to Kathmandu.
 Are you fond of remote and challenging adventure trekking trips to the Himalayas? If you are, trekking in the region of the 7th highest mountain in the world, Dhaulagiri is certainly a great Himalayan trekking experience. At an elevation of 8167 meters above sea level, mount Dhaulagiri stands tallest amongst all other mountain peaks in the range.
You will trek for multiple days close to the Dhaulagiri range and will have a spectacular view of the Dhaulagiri and Annapurna massif in the Himalayas. Technically, the Dhaulagiri region trekking is a challenging and adventurous trip that will take you through lots of high passes and challenging terrains, and high Himalayan pastures. It is one of the most remote and challenging treks in Nepal given the lack of infrastructure and its difficult landscape. The trek goes through the middle hilly region all the way to high mountains in the western Himalayan range in Nepal.
Apart from the remote and challenging adventure in the Himalayas, you can also experience the cultural riches of one of the wonderful ethnic groups, Magar.
