Guerilla Trek

Guerilla Trek is a new trekking route recently opened for trekking by the Trekking Agencies Association of Nepal. The route is located in the far western region and is one of the least visited and crowded trekking areas in Nepal.

The trek follows the trail once used by the Maoist guerillas during the 10-year insurgency in Nepal. The route starts at Beni in Myagdi and heads towards Rukum and Rolpa.  The main attraction of the trail is a visit to Dhorpatan Hunting Reserve. Dhorpatan is the only hunting reserve in Nepal open for hunting for both national and international hunters.  The flag species of the reserve are Ghoral, Blue Sheep, Himalayan Thar, etc. Forests in this region are made of oaks, rhododendrons, and pines. The highest point in this trek is Dharapani at 3900m offering great views of Mt. Api Saipal in the west to Mt. Dhaulagiri in the east.

Walking this trail will make you feel romantic about the culture and struggle of Nepalese and will give you insight into the rural life of Nepal.
