ReplyDeleteThis area is not yet explore by trekkers or tourist till date only locals and Yarshagumba searcher travel to this area. this area is ofcourse nice and wild.We believe this is the closest place in Nepal where yarshagumba found and one can experience such landscapes and altitude. It's only 2 Nights 3 Days trek from Jumla Bazaar.
