The idea of this trek is to trek in untouched and remote villages. In front of us, we could see the peaks of Ganesh Himal like an appeal to go and discover them. Even If it is not the most well known mountain area in Nepal, all the seven large peaks culminate at 7406 meters at the Tibetan boarder. A progressive elevation allowing acclimatization led us to a balcony summit at 4000 meters. Around us, The mountains of Langtang, Manaslu, Annapurna but mainly those of Paldor and Ganesh Himal which we are going to discover more closely in the coming days of our trek till Paldor's base camp at 4500m, The Jaisuli kund (holy lake) or the base camp of Ganesh Himal.
