Although it is the second largest city in Nepal, Pokhara has a completely different energy than Kathmandu. The pace is slower, and the natural beauty of the lakes surrounded by the Annapurna mountains is beyond picturesque. Our yearly meaningful travel immersion trips often make time for a bit of trekking here - we are happy to support our friends at Three Sisters Adventure Trek who pioneered an all women trek guiding organization, educating, training, employing, and empowering Nepali women. This trip we had no time to trek, but so appreciated the magnificent sunrise from Sarankot highlighting the majesty of Machhupuchhre and the Annapurna Range.
