Overview

Gorkha—the untouched and enchanting town of Nepal! This is a religious and historical place in Nepal. In the seventeenth century, modern Nepal was divided into more than 50 tiny states, and Gorkha was one of them. The founder of the “Shah Dynasty,” King Prithivi Narayan Shah, unified Nepal into one kingdom. His Gorkha palace resides on top of a hill at an altitude of about 1000 meters. The King would watch over his people and enemies as far as his eyes could see from the tallest palace in the very center of Nepal! Gorkha is also the home of Gurkhas, the famous brave soldiers who fought with knives against guns.

The Gorkha Village Home Stay Trekking main attraction is walking through the rivers, jungles, and village. The different ethnic groups inhabiting Gorkha are enriching for a different culture and traditions that have been followed for centuries. It is a homestay or fully camping trek where you will get the meals prepared by our cook and accommodation is in camp or local houses as per the client’s interest and availability. You will be glad to go to the top “Gorkha Palace.“. On a clear sky day, you can view the Himalayan range, including a spectacular view of Manaslu, Himalchuli, Lamjung Himal, Machhapuchre (Fishtail), Annapurna Range, Ganesh Himal, etc., and views of the valleys with picturesque villages. In the Gorkha District of Nepal, a community tourist program is in its third year of operation.
