Overview
The Sarangkot half-day hike is a short, semi-day hike that takes you to the Sarangkot view tower or the Sarangkot viewpoint for the beautiful sunrise view. The hike covers a total distance of 8.3 kilometers round-trip and requires around 3–4 hours to complete.
The Sarangkot hike starts with a scenic drive to the Sedi village area. From there, you will trek to the Sarangkot sunrise view point. The trails are well defined and go through forested areas and uneven terrain. Some parts of the trail have a steep incline of about 809 meters and some steep stairs.
It is not a new thing to encounter wildlife when hiking through the lush green forests. The Sarangkot half-day hike from Pokhara gives a similar experience. On the way, you may encounter monkeys, eagles, hawks, smaller birds, and so on. Just remember that the Sarangkot Day hike is not about the wildlife watching but about the sunrise views.
Sarangkot direction is north side of Pokhara city. From the top of the Sarangkot hill, the Pokhara valley can be clearly seen, along with the panoramic views of the snowcapped peaks like Annapurna I, Dhaulagiri I, and their surrounding peaks. The peaks look more stunning, especially when the first sun illuminates the white surface of them.
The Sarangkot trek is also popular in the region, where trekkers trek to the sarangkot and stay there overnight. The next day, they wake up early and enjoy the sunlight. It is a little more extended version of the half-day hike to Sarangkot.
The cultural experience is also one of the major highlights of the hike. The Sarangkot half day hike top-rated package offers the opportunity to interact with the locals of the popular villages along the way. You will have the opportunity too gain cross-cultural understanding, learn about the local’s way of life, and experience the rich hospitality.
The meals, accommodations, travel insurance, snacks, and water costs are not included in the Sarangkot half day hike cost. Therefore, you have to manage your meal by yourself. Also, check the cost inclusion and cost exclusion sections to plan your spending properly during the hike.
