The Dhaulagiri Trek is a challenging and adventurous trek that takes you through the Dhaulagiri massif, one of the highest mountain ranges in the world. It is located in the western region of Nepal and offers stunning views of the Himalayan peaks, including Dhaulagiri (8,167 meters), Annapurna, and Machhapuchhre.

Dhaulagiri Trek starts from Kathmandu to Beni: The trek starts with a drive from Pokhara to Beni, followed by a trek through the Kali Gandaki River Valley. The trail leads to the Italian Base Camp, which is located at an altitude of 3,660 meters. From here, the trail becomes steeper and leads to the Dhaulagiri Base Camp, which is at an altitude of 4,740 meters.

Difficulty Pass Dhaulagiri Trek: The trek further leads to the French Pass (5,360 Meters) and the Dhampus Pass (5,182 meters), which offers breathtaking views of the surrounding Himalayan peaks. The trail then descends to the village of Marpha, famous for its apple orchards and traditional architecture.
