The trek to Mohare Danda brings on a less trodden part of the Annapurna range. It is a lovely alternate Annapurna trek that is off the beaten path. Compared to the Ghorepani trek, this trail is relatively new and still unknown to many other trekkers. It is a great way to promote the sustainable eco-tourism of Nepal while supporting the local community projects. The community projects are designed to play a vital role in the overall upliftment of the lifestyle of the inhabitants of this area. This trek is also known as the Eco Community Lodge trek. It is an excellent choice for those enthusiastic travellers who have a short time. It is a perfect combination of experiencing Nepal's absolute cultural and natural beauties. You get to admire the close views of the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri ranges from Mohare Danda, which is at an elevation of 3,300m. An added advantage of this trek is that you can enjoy the sunrise and sunset views over the glittering mountains right in the comfort of the lodge's dining room.
