It was a fabulous trip which is helped by Overland Trek Nepal to make success. really glad to meet them and got a lot of lovely and helpful information about this trek. I would like to mention here from my experiences, The Trek is not as well marked as Annapurna (there are clear trekking paths). There are close to NO signs and there are multiple routes (which could end up in some random village). Recommend at least bringing a guide. However, there were people hiking solo.
Highly recommended this company which is very kind and worthy!!!!!!!
