Overview of Rara Lake Trek
Rara Lake Trek trails around the Rara National Park, Nepal’s smallest and most scenic national park. It spreads over 106 square kilometers and is about 370 kilometers northwest of Kathmandu valley. This national park lies in the mountain district of Mugu in the western region of Nepal. Also, It stands at the height of 2990 m. area
Where is heaven on earth? The answer might be right here in Nepal. The trekking in Nepal at Rara Lake Trek would resemble walking in heaven. The region seems to be the gem fixed in a ring of snow-capped mountains in the lap of green pastured hills. The pure blue water, probably the fresh and purest watered lake in Nepal, is also the largest across Nepal.
Rara Lake Trek Highlights
This picturesque trekking region is home to the rhododendron forest, a freshwater lake overlooking the Himalayan ranges that are resided by innocent, courteous people. The best period of the Rara Lake Trek is the months of September, November, October, April, and May. During December to March period, the temperature is minus, and the trails will be blocked due to a bulk of snow.
The region is under the Rara National Park. It was established in 1976 with the significant idea of preserving the Lake. One thousand four hundred species of birds and unlimited medicinal herbs make the region; so rich in natural resources being utilized by locals as the significant occupation of collecting and selling.
The trekking starts from Jumla while reaching there via a flight. The culture is entirely different from the rest of Nepal. The settlement is very scarce; therefore, the Peregrine Treks & Expedition would be helpful for the logistics and support. Therefore, come and book Rara Lake Trek, this extraordinary virgin land of Nepal, and see heaven by yourself nestled in the lap of the Himalayas in Nepal.
