Siklesh/Sikles Trek
The Kapuche Sikles trek is a recently discovered trekking route that offers a perfect blend of natural beauty and cultural exploration. This low altitude trek is ideal for beginners, and it can also serve as an acclimatization trek before embarking on higher altitude treks such as the Annapurna Circuit trek, Annapurna Base Camp trek, or Everest Base Camp trek.
The trail is adorned with beautiful rhododendron and bamboo forests, which add to its spectacular natural beauty. Moreover, the artistic Gurung community with their ancient culture and traditions are an added attraction for trekkers.
Despite having a maximum altitude of only 2546 meters, the Sikles trek offers magnificent views of the Annapurna range, Machhapuchre, and many other snow-capped peaks. This trek has been famously known as the royal trek since 1980 when Prince Charles trekked in the area to explore the Gurkha recruits’ village.
Himalayan-Masters has recently explored this trekking trail, making it a unique opportunity for adventure seekers to explore an off-the-beaten-path destination.
