Detailed Itinerary

DAY1
Drive from Kathmandu to Pokhara, 7–8 Hours

Your journey begins early in the morning from Kathmandu. Leaving behind the bustling capital, you will drive alongside the Trishuli River while enjoying spectacular views of lush hills, terraced farmlands, waterfalls, and traditional Nepali villages.

After several scenic stops for tea and lunch, you will arrive in Pokhara, Nepal's beautiful lake city. Spend the evening strolling around the vibrant Lakeside area or relax beside the tranquil Phewa Lake while admiring the stunning Annapurna range.

After breakfast, continue your journey towards Mustang. The road gradually climbs into the Himalayan region, passing through Beni, Tatopani, Ghasa, and the famous apple village of Marpha.

Along the way, witness dramatic changes in landscapes—from lush forests and waterfalls to dry cliffs and rocky valleys. As you enter the Kali Gandaki Gorge, the world's deepest gorge, breathtaking mountain scenery surrounds you.

Upon arrival in Jomsom, enjoy the cool mountain atmosphere and prepare for the spiritual visit the following day.

After breakfast, drive to the sacred Muktinath Temple. Upon arrival, take time to explore this holy pilgrimage site, believed to grant liberation (Moksha).

Visitors can also:

  • Take a holy bath under the 108 sacred water spouts
  • Visit the Eternal Flame (Jwala Mai Temple)
  • Offer prayers at Muktinath Temple
  • Explore nearby monasteries
  • Enjoy panoramic views of the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri mountain ranges

After completing your pilgrimage and sightseeing, drive back to Jomsom.

After breakfast, begin your return journey to Pokhara.

Travel once again through the beautiful Kali Gandaki Valley, crossing charming mountain villages and scenic viewpoints. Stop at Marpha if time permits to taste its famous apple products and explore its traditional stone-paved streets.

Arrive in Pokhara by evening and enjoy leisure time around Lakeside.

After an adventurous journey through the Mustang region, today is dedicated to exploring the beautiful city of Pokhara. Surrounded by the Annapurna Himalayan range and peaceful lakes, Pokhara offers the perfect opportunity to relax and discover some of Nepal's most popular attractions.

After breakfast, your guided sightseeing tour begins with a visit to Devi's Fall, a fascinating underground waterfall that disappears into a deep natural tunnel. From there, continue to Gupteshwor Mahadev Cave, one of Nepal's most sacred caves, home to a naturally formed Shiva shrine and connected to Devi's Fall.

Next, visit the Bindhyabasini Temple, a revered Hindu temple dedicated to Goddess Bhagwati, where visitors can enjoy panoramic views of the city and surrounding mountains. Continue to the impressive Seti River Gorge, famous for its deep, narrow canyon carved by the powerful Seti River.

In the afternoon, spend time at the picturesque Phewa Lake, the heart of Pokhara. Enjoy an optional boat ride to Tal Barahi Temple, located on a small island in the middle of the lake, or simply relax while admiring the reflections of the Annapurna range on the calm waters.

The remainder of the evening is free to explore the vibrant Lakeside area, browse local souvenir shops, enjoy cafés and restaurants, or witness a beautiful sunset over the lake.

After breakfast, bid farewell to the beautiful city of Pokhara and begin your scenic drive back to Kathmandu. The journey follows the Prithvi Highway alongside the Trishuli River, passing charming villages, terraced fields, lush green hills, and flowing rivers.

Enjoy several short breaks along the way for refreshments, photography, and lunch while taking in the beautiful countryside scenery. Upon arrival in Kathmandu in the late afternoon or evening, you will be transferred to your hotel or your preferred drop-off location.

Your memorable Kathmandu–Muktinath journey concludes with wonderful memories of breathtaking Himalayan landscapes, sacred temples, and the unique culture of the Mustang region.
