Sarangkot Sunrise Hike: Behold the Breathtaking Sunrise

Overview

We walk along the ridge as we get a glimpse of the glorious mountain peaks on one side and the placid Phewa Lake on the other. The serene environment and the lush vegetation will make all our stresses go away.

The Sarangkot sunrise hike is a perfect trip to observe the grand Himalayan mountain range. You will have spectacular views of the Himalayas including Dhaulagiri I, Manaslu and Annapurna II along with the radiant Mt. Machhapuchhre (Fishtail).

   We leave early at 5:00 a.m. as we have to reach there on time to see the magnificent sunrise from Sarangkot. We ride along Lakeside towards the north to the last main intersection. 

   This road continues its way along a ridge into Sarangkot hill, with exceptional views of the Himalayas, which seem almost close enough to reach out and touch.

   After a 6km ride, we see a few teahouses where we can make a welcome refreshment stop. The track firmly embraces the edge of the hill overlooking Phewa Tal. 

   We then spend about an hour on the top of Sarangkot hill, enjoying the splendid sunrise. The sunrise from Sarangkot is unique from others.

   Moreover, the first rays of the sun falling onto to Mountains and making them glisten is quite a view. We then begin our hiking from there. We follow a trail towards the west that will lead us to Naudada. 

   After about 3 hours of hike, we finally reach Naudada. Naudada itself is at the height of 1590m and has a quiet village that is inhabited by farmers. Here, we can enjoy food and drinks while looking at the paddy fields or the mountains above.

   After having enough rest, we continue our hike downhill. We descend through a dense forest as we continuously enjoy the magnificent scenery. Finally, we reach our last hiking destination that is Phedi. Here, we get back in our private vehicle and ride back to Pokhara. The entire trip of Sarangkot hiking can be completed by mid-afternoon.
