bear. This area is one of the least inhabited trekking routes, which
will give you a feel for the natural environment of Nepal. Length

Pristine Rara Lake,
known as the Queen of Lakes, is the largest lake in Nepal. Surrounded
by juniper and spruce forests of Rara Lake National Park in the
western part of the country, it is a high altitude lake at 9,834
feet (2,980 m).
The trekking route
is not heavily traveled, but it passes through a region that affords
cultural interactions and
scenery quite different from the rest of Nepal. You may meet followers
of Hinduism as well as immigrant Tibetan families.
Trekking in this area
involves a great deal of up-and-down walking through forests and
isolated villages. You remain mostly at lower elevations, reaching
a high elevation of 12,243 feet (3,710 m) at Danfe pass.
You can spend two
days at Baridiya National Park, where you can take an elephant-back
safari through the lush jungle. Your accommodations are well-equipped
tents.
