Boating, sunrise at Sarangkot, the World Peace Pagoda and more — how to make the most of three days.
Pokhara is Nepal’s adventure capital and its most relaxing city at the same time. Here’s how our team would spend three days.
Day 1 — The lake
Stroll five minutes to Lakeside, hire a boat to Tal Barahi temple and return for sunset along the shore.
Day 2 — Sunrise and sky
Wake early for Sarangkot sunrise, then return later in the morning for a tandem paragliding flight over the lake.
Day 3 — Culture and caves
- World Peace Pagoda by boat and hike
- Davis Falls and Gupteshwor Cave
- Gurkha Memorial Museum
- Evening folk dance in Lakeside
