The first and easy route is from Pokhara. It can be managed by a drive of about 6-7 hours by Tourist bus or direct flight from Kathmandu (25 minutes) . Then you will meet the enchanting Pokhara . Normally you can spend one night in Pokhara, in the lap of the Annapurna Mountain range . About 1 hour drive will take you to the starting point of the trek, Nayapul.
