You’ll be embarking on an epic journey through Kaligandaki Gorge, which is the deepest gorge in the entire world. Prepare for a challenging journey as you navigate difficult terrains and cross rivers on your way to reaching Jomsom.

Add some extra excitement to your adventure with activities like zip-lining, bungee jumping, and paragliding.
