Sarangkot Hiking
Sarangkot is a beautiful village about 5 km towards North, uphill from Pokhara. It resides on a ridge at an altitude of 1600 meters and offers panoramic views of Annapurna and Dhaulagiri mountain ranges. Sarangkot is the most popular destination for hiking from Pokhara due to its proximity to the mountains. This includes 25 mountains over 6500m such as Dhaulagiri (8167m), Manasalu (8156m), Annapurna (8091m), Ganesh Himal (7422m), and Machhapuchhre (Fish Tail, 6993m).
Breathtaking views of sunrise and sunset can be enjoyed from Sarangkot tower. The beautiful city of Pokhara and its magnificent Phewa lake can be seen in its full glory as you move uphill to Sarangkot. If you want to enjoy the serenity of lakes and the magnificence of the mountains, Sarangkot is the best place to experience the perfect blend.
