Advancing with the trail, amidst the glorious backdrop of magnificent Annapurna mountain ranges a beautiful village Chyamje emerges. After crossing a suspension bridge and climbing the slippery and physically challenging steep path, we reach Sattale. Treading along the rock-strewn trails, we descend to a grassy riverbank to Tal.

DAY 5 : DHARAPANI TO CHAME (2600 M)
On this day, we leave Dharapani and head towards Chame. After a gentle ascent, we reach the beautiful village of Chame. Chame almost looks like a Tibetan village as the people of Chame migrated from the Nepal-Tibet trade route a long time ago, and settled here. The customs, houses, and culture here are highly influenced by Tibetan culture. Chame has lovely views of Mt. Annapurna II, a pair of burbling hot springs where we can dip in and soothe our aching muscles. Overnight at teahouse in Chame;

From Pisang, the high trail enters pine groves to reveal the glorious view of the small turquoise lake Mring Tso. The trail rises upwards to Ghyaru and enters well-cultivated barley and buckwheat field before we reach Ngawal. Ngawal is one of the most picturesque villages in Annapurna. The main reason for our stay at Ngawal is to acclimatize to the high altitude. One of the main attractions of this village is a centuries-old cave of Guru Rinpoche which is in the hills overlooking Ngawal village. The local people believe the cave leads to Mustang.
