Day 02 - Fly to Pokhara 25-min, then trek to Tikhe Dhunga (1495m/49035ft), Duration: 5 hours

From Kathmandu, we take an early morning flight to Pokhara. The flight takes about 30 minutes to reach there. There are various prominent places like the Bindabasini temple, the Davis fall, the Gupteshwor cave, the Seti River Gorge located in Pokhara. The religious Bindabasini temple is located in the centre of old bazaar in the city and is related to the Goddess Bhagwati. One of the most famous waterfalls in the country, named Davis Falls, also called as “the Patale Chhango” is located in the southern part of the Pokhara valley. The water falls through many gorges in the rocks below, leaping along many rocky portals that keep your mouth open wide. The Gupteshwor Cave is situated 2 kilometers away from the Pokhara airport. The entrance to the cave is right across from Davis Falls and is almost 3 km long. With some big hall-sized rooms and some passages that could be explored. It is adventurous because you have to crawl on your fours in some places. This cave holds special value to the Hindus since a phallic symbol of Lord Shiva is preserved here in the same condition as when it was discovered. The next is the Seti Gorge. Carved by the Seti-Gandaki River, it is one of the most amazing natural wonders of Pokhara. And finally, boating in the Phewa Lake takes anyone's tiredness away, and visiting the temple of Taal Barahi which is in the lake will give anyone immense joy from natural beauty. The reflection of Mount Machhapuchhre and the Annapurna can also be seen in the lake. The thick pine forest on the adjoining southern slopes of the lake is also quite haunting. After breakfast, we’ll drive to Nayapul (42 km from Pokhara) and pass through the town of Lumle. Then, we will go for a short stroll to Birethanti. The trail pursues Birethanti through completely flawless bamboo woodlands and past huge cascades glinting with the ethereal light of the sun. Then we pass the lavish field of foals and stallions for the most part. The trail proceeds to Ranghai and to Tikhedhunga. Overnight at Guesthouse. Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner included.

The aerial view of the mountain peaks from the helicopter is something that inspires thrill and excitement. The beautiful landscape of the Annapurna region does not disappoint when seen from a bird's-eye view.

The Annapurna Base Camp Heli Trek was absolutely amazing! The trek itself took me through beautiful rhododendron forests, quaint villages, and stunning mountain views. Reaching the base camp felt like a dream, surrounded by towering snow-capped peaks. The best part? The helicopter ride back to Pokhara – an incredible way to end the trip with breathtaking aerial views of the Himalayas.

A huge thank you to Himalayan Hertz Pvt. Ltd. for organizing this unforgettable journey. Your professionalism and attention to detail made the entire experience even more special. I highly recommend this trek to anyone looking for a memorable Himalayan adventure!
