Jomsom and Kagbeni

Walking along the dry river bed of Kali Gandaki (River)
The route seemed endless; the weather, torrid; the wind, gusty…
and the steps became heavier and harder as we slowly inched forward

Jomsom (2,710m) (above and below)


Airport in Jomsom – with only a
short strip of runway (above and below)


Along Kali Gandaki (River)
The bend gave us the ‘false’ hope of
‘the destination is just behind the bend’!



While we were wobbling like drunkards, the bridge
remained very stable despite the strong and powerful wind

The lodge in Kagbeni (2,800m)
