This rara lake trek through the remote wilderness of western Nepal to visit Rara Lake, Nepal's largest at 16 sq km, offers a superb experience of nature. Beginning the trek from the mountain airstrip at Jumla the trail passes through green countryside, providing glimpses of a culture and scenery quite different from that found elsewhere in Nepal, which eventually leads to Rara Lake National Park. This beautiful high altitude lake is surrounded by Himalayan meadows and forests of pine, juniper and spruce, whilst in the background you can view the magnificent snow-capped peaks of the high Himalayas. The entire route is 'off the beaten track'; it involves the crossing of Danphya Langa Pass at 3,720m on the way to Rara Lake and two ridges at about 3,500m when hiking back
