Overview

Pokhara itself can be quite an adventurous place to go hiking. Pokhara is surrounded by green hills which offer plenty of options as a destination for hiking. Moreover, hiking in Pokhara can be done all year round. The Shanti Stupa Pokhara, also known as World Peace Pagoda Pokhara, is situated on top of Ananda hill.

Located at a height of 1100 meters, the Pokhara Shanti Stupa is the first World Peace Pagoda of Nepal. When the weather is clear, then early sunrise can lead to magnificent views of the Annapurna mountain range.

Moreover, there are several eateries close to the Stupa where you can have lunch enjoying the stunning view. It is a perfect spot for a view of the Himalayan range, Phewa Lake and Pokhara city. Lots of Pilgrims especially of Buddhist origin ascend to this peak to pay their homage to the white stupa.

More About Pokhara Peace Pagoda Hike

This hike can be concluded within half-day so we have a lot of spare time in which we can opt to explore the Pokhara Valley. We can do a boat ride on Phewa Lake as well as pay homage to the Tal Barahi Temple situated in the middle of the lake. In addition to that, we can consider various adventure activities like Bungee Jumping, ultra-light, and Paragliding.

From the pagoda, we can perceive the wholesome Lakeside along with astounding mountain views of the Annapurna range. Not only that, the hill is enriched with natural beauty.

Furthermore, just above the stupa is the newly built huge statue of Lord Shiva, which is gaining quick popularity over a short time. So, we can continue the journey to view the statue of Lord Shiva. If we take a bus then, it is just 30 minutes ride from Pokhara. Lakeside is also renowned for its exotic nightlife so, we can have dinner sitting beside the large lake.
