Then we follow the path along Myagdi Khola until we reach Naura. We will go straight up the side of the mountain to Ghorban Dhara. From Ghorban Dhara you can see Ghustung South (6465 m). Before reaching the Naura, we follow the path to the banks of the Myagdi Khola River. From Naura we climb the side of the mountain. Sometimes uphill and a road that crosses steep grassy hills and if you continue to descend through a forested area on a steep, well-developed zigzag stone path and climb a ridge, Baghara becomes visible at 2050m. We will camp here at night.

The real challenges of the trip start here. The path becomes steep with more slopes and descents. The walk takes five hours to reach Dobang. On the way to our destination, we can see some mountain views. After arriving in Dobang, we will build our camp and spend the night.

At the end of our breakfast, we continue our walk towards Sallaghari. Sallaghari means dense pine forest. It is also the summer grass. We will walk gently on an ascending path that leads through dense rhododendron, pine, and bamboo forests. As soon as you see a ridge to climb, finish a smooth hike. You should go uphill. From the top of the hill, you can see the Dhaulagiri-I wall. From here, the path descends towards Myagdi Khola and leads us along this river to Sallaghari. We will camp night for night stay.

After waking up, surrounded by pine forests and the sound of a rapidly flowing river, we have breakfast at the camp. Then we pack our camping utensils and walk to our destination. The walk lasts four hours, and when we get to the Italian base camp, we will first find the glacier. The views of the Dhaulagiri mountain range, Manapathi Peak and Dhaulagiri-II are genuinely inspiring and impressive. The camp is located under the west wall of Dhaulagiri-I, where we will camp overnight.

The walk is considered ambiguous, so the rest is more important if you want to end your walk. We take a break from hiking and rest for today. We will explore the base camp so that we can adapt to the air at high altitudes. We will visit tea houses where some trekker items are offered. After exploring the tea houses and enjoying the breathtaking views of the Dhaulagiri Mountains and the Manapathi Summit, we return to our camp for the night.

Our body today becomes much lighter, which will be useful for today’s trekking. We will continue our trek to Glacier Camp. The trail is much more rugged with rocks and steep slopes and slippery glaciers. After a while, we cross the moraine of an iceberg that flows down from the Dhaulagiri. We also need ropes to be able to climb in today’s trekking. After 5-6 hours of walking, we reach our last stop at Glacier Camp. Today we camp at night too.

Meals included: breakfast lunch dinner

Today is also a stressful day for trekking. You should walk down the slippery glacier path. The climb will be much stricter and more demanding. Ascending six hours is a hard work, but once you reach at Dhaulagiri Base Camp, you will forget all the suffering you have been through the trek. You will be surprised to see Dhaulagiri-I standing in front of you. In addition to Dhaulagiri, you can see various peaks such as Dhaulagiri II (7,751 m), III (7,715 m), and IV (7,618 m). In front of our camp, there is a spectacular ice waterfall between Tukuche and Dhaulagiri. We will camp for overnight stay.

Our legs ache from yesterday’s climb, so this day off will help us recover. We will explore the Dhaulagiri Base Camp. It will also be height adjusted if you want to explore the camp. Climbing something above the camp gives you a spectacular view of the Dhaulagiri Range. After looking around for a while, we returned to base camp to rest. We will stay at the camp.

On a cold morning, we will have a hot breakfast and start our trek towards French Col, from where you will be amazed by the view of the hidden valley. However, before you start logging, you must leave the glacier to which you must climb. After doing strenuous work in rope climbing, you can walk on less arduous terrain to reach French Col, the hidden valley that also reminds of Tibet and Ladakh. The temperature here is at least -20 degrees Celsius. Then we walk to the hidden valley where we will camp for the night stay.

To get to Yak Kharka, we first have to cross the Dhampus Pass. The walk lasts approximately seven hours. The trek to Dhampus is arduous because you have to climb steeply. Not only is uphill a challenge, but downhill is as tricky as uphill. On the descent, we pass avalanche and rocky slopes. After falling down a challenging path, we come to an open space where the yak grazes. This free grass space is known as Yak Kharka. We will camp in Yak Kharka to spend the night.

Today’s hike will be the easiest after all the hard and tough days of trekking. Our last stop of the day is Jomsom.

You can shop here in the village of Marpha because the village is beautiful and there are several craft shops around the village. From the community of Marpha, we reach a certain height to get to our last stop for Jomsom. Here you can enjoy the end of your walk.
