Rara Lake Trek

The Rara Lake Trek is an exciting adventure in the far-west of Nepal, where you’ll find the Rara National Park. This park is home to lots of different plants and animals that live in the Himalayan mountains. The trek takes you through some really wild and beautiful areas, letting you explore the amazing national park. You’ll walk through forests and meadows, with occasional views of mountains, until you reach the stunning Rara Lake.

This trek is a bit different from the usual ones in Nepal because it’s not as well-known. It all starts with your arrival in Kathmandu, where you’ll spend a day getting ready for the trek and getting the necessary permits. You’ll also get to see some important places in Kathmandu, which are recognized by UNESCO as World Heritage sites.

The next day, you’ll fly to Nepalgunj and then to Jumla, which is where the trek starts. During the trek, you’ll pass through different valleys like Jumla, Padmara, Tila, and Sinja, where you’ll get to learn about the culture of the tribes living in the park. You might even see some cool animals like black bears, red pandas, and musk deer.

The best part of the trek is when you finally reach Rara Lake. The view of the lake surrounded by mountains is absolutely breathtaking. You’ll camp by the lake and visit the nearby Rara village, which feels like living in the wild.

After exploring the area around Rara Lake, the trek takes you on a loop back to Jumla, passing through places like Ghorosingha and Jaljala. The best times to do this trek are in spring (March-May) and autumn (September-November), when the weather is nice and the views are clear.
