Ghalegaun Homestay Tour

5 Days

One spectacular and charming homestay cultural tour is the Ghalegaun and Bhujung tour in the Lamjung district.  During this tour, students witness the beautiful warm villages, terrace slopes, and paddy fields and learn about the wonderful culture and lifestyle of ethnic Gurungs and Magars in Ghalegaun and Bhujung.

Ghalegaun is the habitat of the famous Ghales, Gurungs, and legendary Gurkhas of western Nepal. It lies in the Lamjung district of Nepal and is incredibly popular for homestay trekking trekkers. It is 205 km northwest of Kathmandu and 125 km northeast of Pokhara. The village gives a close-up view of the western Himalayas including Machhapuchhare, Annapurna, Lamjung Himal, Buddha Himal, Himchuli, and other small peaks. 
The Ghalegaun tour is very popular for honey-hunting activities. Traditional honey hunting can be observed during the Ghalegaun tour. Primarily, it is possible in the late spring and autumn seasons.
