Himalaya Discovery welcomes for newly married couples in Nepal to celebrate their honeymoon trip in Nepal which is naturally beautiful country with rich in diversity of attractive sight scenes and adventure opportunities.

Nepal Honeymoon Trip combines the Kathmandu City Tour with UNESCO World Heritage Sites visits and the Annapurna Trek a week. Your trip ends with a relaxing massage in Pokhara after the trek and Kathmandu before your flight to home.

Ghorepani and Poon Hill Trek is one of the easiest and best short treks in the Annapurna region. We start in Pokhara traveling through beautiful rhododendron and oak forests and green hills and then pass through Poon Hill, which offers panoramic views, a wonderful place to see the sunrise and sunset.

The trek discovers the foothills of central Himalaya passing through different villages, providing spectacular views of Annapurna and Dhaulagiri massifs.

The trail winds through patchwork valleys, dense mossy forests and past icy waterfalls where you can stop to cool your face. Around every corner is a tantalizing glimpse of the high mountains, whole horizons of which will be revealed to you as you reach the high points of your trek.

Chitwan is the richest wildlife reserve in Asia with an area of 932sq, km established in 1973. In 1984 this Park was Elephant designated by UNESCO as a natural world Heritage Site in view of the scope and contribution of this Park.

It is however very unlikely that the itinerary would be substantially altered; if alterations are necessary the leader will decide what is the best alternative, taking into consideration the best interests of the whole group. Where a change does occur, we do everything we can to minimize its effect, but we cannot be responsible for the results of changes or delays.
