The experience
Spend the day around Ghandruk rather than packing up for another destination.

DAY 3 OF 3
Walk out
The experience
After breakfast, begin the walk back towards the pickup point. Downhill paths and steps still call for a steady pace, so allow time for breaks rather than rushing to the vehicle. Continue by road to Pokhara, where the short trip ends. Keep onward travel flexible until the return arrangements and expected timing have been confirmed.
