Know before you go
  • Our advice is to build your general cardio (the fun stuff!) for at least a month before leaving and participate in a few consecutive days of long-distance walking. Get your feet used to being in boots day after day. If you want to, try altitude training before you leave.
  • Trek through the quaint and peaceful Himalayan trail located on the lap of Annapurna and Dhaulagiri peaks. The remote trails on the Mohare Danda Trek for families offer old-fashioned settlements, rich cultural attributes, and a peaceful setting for families with children. A relatively new trek compared to most other treks around Annapurna, the Mohare Danda Trek for families is undertaken by a handful of tourists. Hence, making it a perfect destination for those looking for solitude.
