Khopra Ridge Trek: 15 Days

Khopra ridge trek is a newly open trek in Annapurna Himalaya, which is located away from the busier trails of the Annapurna region but provides equally outstanding views of the Himalayas which include Mount Dhaulagiri, Annapurna South, and Nilgiri.

Another attraction of the trek is the holy Khaer Lake, which requires a little wandering away from the Kopra Ridge.

You leave the main trail of the Ghorepani- Ghandruk Trek after Tadapani and for the next few days, walk along a remote trail while staying at the community tea houses/lodges. The Khopra Trek is suitable for those who wish to enjoy the grandeur of Mt. Annapurna while also taking pleasure in the solace of a more remote trail. The Khopra Ridge Trek is the best alternative to the Annapurna base camp Trek.

The Khopra trekking begins from Nayapul and treks to Ghandruk village, Ghandruk village is the biggest Gurung village in the Annapurna and has beautiful settlements. The trail continues to follow Tadapani and off the beaten trail to Bayali which is following the forest of Rhododendron and pine. It is not a normal tourist trail so you may not meet trekkers/tourists on the way.

Khopra is a new trek route closer to Annapurna, there is a very basic tea house/lodge/community lodge available, so prepare for this. The trail leads even close to Annapurna South to Khopradanda which offers a great sunrise view with panoramic views of Annapurna and Dhaulagiri with the entire range.

Khayar Lake is another attraction of this trek which is beautiful and quiet. Then the trail turns another way down to Swata and up to Ghorepani then ends at Pokhara.

Here are some of our best beginner-friendly trekking packages in Nepal- Annapurna base camp trek, Everest base camp trek, Langtang valley trek, Mardi Himal trek, Dhampus Sarangkot trek, Helambu trek, etc.
