On this second day of our 20 days Dhaulagiri Circuit Trekking, we will have a guided tour of Kathmandu valley. We will visit UNESCO listed World Heritage Sites with our fluent English speaking tour guide. Among 10 world heritage sights of Nepal, 8 are situated in three districts of Kathmandu valley, Kathmandu, Bhaktapur and Lalitpur. Pashupatinath Temple, Boudhanath Stupa, and Swoyambhunath Stupa are the most famous of all sites we will visit. The monuments of the Durbar Squares are also culturally and aesthetically important where we will be during our tour. After visiting the sites, you will be dropped to the hotel. Your overnight will be very amazing with a lot of curiosity and calm in the hotel

On our fourth day of Dhaulagiri circuit trekking, we will start to walk. We will head to Babiya Chaur from Beni. First of all, our trekking will be along the Kali Gandaki River. We will go then to the direction of Myagdi Khola.  We will pass over suspension bridge and walk through Mangalghat, Singa, Tatopani, Simalchaur villages. At last, we will reach to our destination of the day, which is Babiya Chaur village. Our overnight will be in Babiya Chaur. 

When we continue our trekking on our fifth day, we will start from babiya Chaur to Dharapani.

We will ascend slowly on our trekking. Dharapani is at the height of 1565m. We will be staying in the camp there our overnight. 

On our sixth day of Dhaulagiri circuit trekking, we will leave Dharapani and start to Muri. We will ascend again on the day. The way is steep which takes us to Muri. Muri is the place from where we can see Mt. Dhaulagiri very clearly. 

It’s our seventh day of our Dhaulagiri circuit trekking. We will head to Boghara from Muri. The first part of our trekking is very easy. There is little bit descent also but the last two hours will be very sloppy towards the upside. Our overnight will be in Boghara. 

On the eighth day of our Dhaulagiri circuit trekking, we will start from Boghara to Dobhan. This trekking is little bit challenging. On the way, we have to walk through the path of the stones. On some part of the way, we have to take the help of the rope. Our overnight will be in Dobhan. 

This ninth day of our Dhaulagiri circuit trekking, we will start to Italian Base camp from Dobhan. We can observe the panorama of the mountain all around the path. We will pass the alpine forests and the Base Camp. In the jungle there are a lot of rare vegetations and animals. Our overnight will be in Italian Base Camp.

This day’s walk is little bit tough because, we have to trek through the glacier moraine and snow. On this 11^th day of our Dhaulagiri circuit trekking, we leave Italian Base Camp and head to Glacier Camp which is at the height of 4250m. We will use the rope in some places and we will not use the rope in some places. The sceneries of the place are very beautiful but the path is very risky. We will see the Chonbarden gorge, on our way. Our overnight will be in Glacier Camp. 

We will stay in the Glacier camp, this day too but we will climb up on this 12^th day of our Dhaulagiri circuit trekking. We will go towards the Base Camp but will return without reaching the Base camp because that takes 1 day walk. We will walk to the up in the path of the snow. There is the icefall from the north east of the mountain. Our overnight will be in the Glacier Camp. 

This is our thirteenth day of Dhaulagiri circuit trekking. On this day, we will start to Dhaulagiri Base Camp from Glacier Camp. Dhaulagiri is the tallest White Mountain in the sense of the ice accumulation. This mountain has a lot of white snow. When we reach to the Dhaulagiri Base Camp, our enjoyment can’t be determined. We will be overjoyed. We will see the views of the mountains Dhauagiri II and IV as well as Tukuche from very close. We also can see the path of the summit of the mountain.  

This fourteenth day of our Dhaulagiri circuit trekking will be the rest day. It is necessary to give rest for our body after doing adventurous trek because our body needs the rest to assimilate in the environment. Our body needs to adjust with the thin air of high altitude. Our overnight will be in French Col. 

This fifteenth day of our Dhaulagiri circuit trekking will be the day of move to Hidden Valley from French Col, which is at the height of 5360m. This trekking needs the use of climbing gears like ice axe and crampons. This is the most risky walk of our trekking. This is the most adventurous part of the trek as well. When we see the place, we will forget our struggle to come here. Our overnight will be in Hidden valley. 

We will rest in Hidden Valley, on our 16^th day of Dhaulagiri circuit trekking. We will enjoy the beauty of the mountains Annapurna, Dhaulagiri, and Nilgiri Himal.

On our 17^th day of Dhaulagiri circuit trekking will be the day of heading to Yak Kharka from Hidden Valley via Dhampus Pass. We have to climb up to reach to the Dhampus pass. From Dhampus Pass, we can enjoy more clear and close views of the mountains. We can enjoy the views of Dhampus peak on the left and Tukuche on the right. After there, we will walk down with the sloppy way. Finally we will reach to Yak Kharka, where we will spend our overnight.
