Today is one of the most special days of the trek as we make our way to the holy Panch Pokhari. The trail climbs steadily over rocky hillsides and alpine terrain.

Panch Pokhari, meaning “Five Sacred Lakes,” is an important pilgrimage destination for both Hindus and Buddhists. Pilgrims from Nepal and India visit this holy site during religious festivals such as Janai Purnima.

After reaching the lakes, we have time to explore the sacred surroundings and reflect on the spiritual significance of this beautiful place. Overnight stay will be in a tent.
