Itinerary

Day 1: Drive from the hotel and hike to the Australian camp & Dhampus and drive back.

Itinerary

Start your day with a good breakfast at your hotel in Pokhara. Make sure you fuel up for the day ahead. After breakfast, embark on a scenic drive from your hotel to Kande. This drive should take approximately one hour.
Upon reaching Kande, begin your hike to Australian Camp. This hike typically takes about two hours, but it might vary based on your pace and the trail conditions. Enjoy the stunning views of the mountains along the way.
Once you reach Australian Camp, take some time to soak in the breathtaking panoramic views of the mountains. Australian Camp offers a fantastic vantage point to admire the majestic peaks of the Himalayas.
After enjoying the views from Australian Camp, start your descent towards Dhampus. The hike down should take less time than the ascent. Upon reaching Dhampus, take a break and have lunch. You can explore the village and its surroundings while enjoying your meal.
After lunch, continue your descent towards Phedi. The walk from Dhampus to Phedi should be relatively easier and shorter compared to the earlier hike.
Upon reaching Phedi, drive back to your hotel in Pokhara. Reflect on the day's adventures and enjoy the scenery during the drive.
Once you're back in Pokhara, unwind and relax at your hotel. You can indulge in some leisure activities or simply rest after a fulfilling day of hiking and exploration.

What gear & equipment are required for hiking?

A water bottle to keep you hydrated throughout the day, Sun protection items (Sun cream/Sunglasses) & a bag with enough space to keep your essentials.

What sort of shoes put on for hiking?

To soothe the hike we recommend you to wear lightweight sneakers or trail running shoes.
The choice of shoes can also be your personal preference so you can wear whatever you think you would be comfortable with.

What outfit would be suitable for hiking?

Normal sweatshirts and comfortable shorts are a good combination for hiking.
Loose and less heat-absorbing clothes are recommended for the hike.

What about the foods?

As per the company’s package, the food will be provided to you at a designated place and of course, you can also bring your own food or nutriments (energy bar/drink).
NOTE:
If you have any type of allergy regarding food a concern should be aroused with the company to prevent the sickness.

Should I be worried about domestic/ wild animals?

Yes but they rarely appear on hiking trails but even if you come across one the chances of you getting harm are very low. However, if you are harmed/attacked by one necessary measure can be applied to avoid the risk.
