Pokkara Town Accomodation Things To Do The gateway to the Annapunas. Caught an early bus, had a chance to see some local villages on the way. There were people ploughing a field with just 2buffalos. Very poor. Arrived eight hours later expecting to see mountains but saw none. It was noonsoon season with clouds everyday - was the same for the next 5 days. Nice small town by the lakeside. Food - Eveest Steak House (very tasty huge slabs of meat). The owner sorts you out a monster steak if you finished a trek! Shops - copied Northface gear everywhere - Thin Fleece (200RS), Wind Stopper (800RS), Thick Fleece (500RS) , Waterproof Trousers (500RS) Good shop - funky boss ( Lakeside 6) Photos Accomodation Name Tranquility Lodge Tel Email Price 200 RS per night (2 quid) Good Points very clean, large double bed, hot showers, nice gardens Bad Points Rating 9/10 Comments Absolutley amazing room for only 2 pounds. More like a nice guest house / hotel than a backpackers place. Photos Things To Do Trekking - FREE (small charge for permit on Annapurna Circuit) For info on the Awesome Annapurna Cicuit check our trip out day by day here Annapurna Circuit 07/06/05 - Peace Pagoda Trek - 20Km Suppose to be a warm up trek for the circuit but was much tougher than expected. Got a huge headache half way through and neck pains as well. Got lost. Played Carrams with kids in the village, was very cool. Played football/vollyball with sock ball with some other kids. Amazing views of the lake and Pokkara. Was wasted aftewards and ill. Photos
