Panchase Hill Overnight Hike

An easy overnight walk to a 2,500 m summit with Annapurna, Dhaulagiri and Manaslu in one sweep.

Panchase is the quiet hill west of Pokhara. From Khare you walk three gentle hours up through rhododendron and oak forest, and spend the night in a simple lodge. In the morning it's an hour to the summit for first light, when three 8,000 m ranges line up in front of you. After a big breakfast you walk down and drive home, back by lunch. We collect you from your Lakeside hotel, and any entry fees or permits are included.

Questions before you book

Can I do Panchase in a day?

From the closest trailheads, yes, at a push. Expect a long day of ten hours or so, and almost everyone who does it that way wishes they'd stayed the night.

Do I need a permit?

Usually not on the standard routes, though it depends where you start and finish. We check for each itinerary instead of guessing.

What is the accommodation like?

Basic teahouses and homestays at Panchase Bhanjyang, with simple rooms, dal bhat and limited electricity. Bring a sleeping bag liner and a headtorch.
