Overview
A short ridge trek close to Pokhara, climbing above the clouds to a viewpoint right beneath the Fishtail peak.
This newer route climbs a narrow ridge through forest to open alpine country, with close views of Machhapuchhre, Annapurna South and Hiunchuli.
The base camp viewpoint at about 4,500 m is a big reward for a short trip. Lodges are small and fill up quickly in season, and the top section is exposed in bad weather.
An Annapurna Conservation Area permit is required.
