Rappel canyon, oriented to the east

Access: machine translated ➜

From Kathmandu on the Prithvi Hwy westwards towards Pokhara. After 130 km in 4 hours - if it walks well - we come to Dumre. You can also get here from Pokhara after 67 km in a good 2 hours. In Dumre we turn northwards into the valley of the river Marsyangdi and reach Besisahar after 42 km and 1.5 hours. Here the paved road ends (2011). Now on dirt road 24 km or 75 min. further to the village of Syange. This is also the approach if you approach the Annapurna Trek from the east, i.e. counterclockwise. Here or in the vicinity (e.g. in Germu on the other side of the river) we will take up quarters for the ascent of the surrounding canyons. \n

We walk in the road village Syange on the track in southern direction and then take the path up to Mipra. Before reaching the first houses of Mipra we take the path that leads below the houses in southern direction to the canyon. The descent starts below the suspension bridge (see Google trail sketch at "Photos").
