Hotels in Gandaki, Nepal

Gandaki is a region in central Nepal, famous for the Annapurna mountain range and the sacred Muktinath temple. The climate ranges from subtropical in the lower valleys to alpine at higher altitudes, with warm summers (75-85°F / 24-30°C) ideal for trekking the Annapurna Circuit and rafting the Trishuli River, while mild winters (50-65°F / 10-18°C) are perfect for visiting Pokhara's Fewa Lake and paragliding off Sarangkot's 1,592-meter peak. Spring brings blooming rhododendrons on trails like Ghorepani, and autumn offers clear views of Annapurna I (26,545 ft) from Poon Hill - you'll need a permit for Annapurna Conservation Area, costing about $30.
