Day 01: The Begnas Thulokot day trekking starts from your hotel in Pokhara
We will have a private vehicle which will drop you off at the trek starting point (Begnas Lake). Then your guide will take you along the trekking route that takes us to Kalikasthan village. It will take about 45 minutes to reach this small settlement, located on a hill that overlooks the Annapurna range. Here you can explore the untouched and less modern villages, compared to villages located on other trekking routes in the Annapurna region. Then we will continue our walk to Thulokot, which means “Big Settlement” in Nepali. Thulokot offers excellent views of the Annapurna range, Machhapuchhre and panoramic views of the Pokhara valley, Phewa Lake and Begnas Lake. The trekking is about an hour from Kalikastan to Thulokot which is an uphill climb.
After admiring the view, we will start our gentle downhill trek to Kaulekot village, which is home to some different castes and ethnic groups of Nepal. We will continue our trek down to Begnas Lake, about 3 hours from Thulokot, where we will take a boat ride to cross the lake. At the completion of our excursion, you will be dropped back off at your hotel in Pokhara.

Tour Reviews
A perfect day. Relaxed and informative – it was so good to meet local people whilst on our kalikasthan thulokote walk. Our guide mr. min was excellent as was our driver. We were picked up on time and looked after well. Thank you both!. If you are in Pokhara then it would be good choice.
