Dhaulagiri Trekking Package

The world's seventh highest Mt. Dhaulagiri(8167m) lies Northwest of Pokhara, 120 km from the Kaligandaki River west to the Bheri. This mountain was thought to be the highest from 1808 to 1848, although that honor has been held by Mt.Everest since 1852. This region is a very remote and virgin place in the kingdom of Nepal. The meaning of Mt. Dhaulagiri comes from Sanskrit where “Dhawala” means dazzling,  beautiful, white, and “Giri” means mountain! The full meaning of the Dhaulagiri is “A Dazzling, white mountain”. This Massive mountain is visible from Pokhara, Ghorepani Poonhill trek, and Muktinath. This region is known as the quietest, most beautiful trekking region of Nepal. It is possible to walk without seeing any other people for several days. The massive Dhaulagiri was first climbed on 13 May 1960 by a Swiss/Austrian/Nepali expedition.
