Comfortable drive with scenic stops — bring a light jacket for the evening breeze.

Day3

Short Trek to Dhampus or Australian Camp — Mountain Panorama

Start early for a short, family-friendly trek to Dhampus or Australian Camp (3–4 hours round trip depending on pace). These viewpoints offer spectacular sunrise and panoramic views of the Annapurna range including Machhapuchhre, Annapurna South and Dhaulagiri. Return to Pokhara in the afternoon for relaxation and optional lakeside activities. The trek is suitable for children and beginners; ensure comfortable walking shoes and water.
