Overview

Siklis trek is designed specifically for less experienced hikers or anyone who is motivated to see Nepal's rural areas. This region has fallen far behind in terms of development. The Annapurna trekking routes are relatively near to the Siklis region. It is to Pokhara's northeast. There aren't many lodges and guest hotels along the road. It is therefore easy to understand why we decided to set up a camp for an overnight stay. At a height of 2000 meters, the lovely village of Siklis is perched on the edge of a hummock.
The Gurung village here is breathtaking. Houses made of mud and stones line the village's winding pathways. A classic ribbon motif is used to group the homes. There are five other charming towns all around this one. Lama-thar, Sabha-thar, Harpu-thar, Dhaprang-tha, and Gari-thar are their names. The local community has a specific place for these villages. Despite the fact that this trip moves along rather slowly, there is still plenty of time to learn about the local flora and fauna. While traveling the route, you can observe some beautiful mountain vistas.
