The Dhampus Australian Camp trek (also known as the Sarangkot Trekking) is one of the most popular short trekking destinations in the Annapurna Region. The trail passes through villages that are densely populated by mid-hill tribes; the Gurungs. Hence, the trek gives you ample opportunity to experience the local culture and learn the tradition of the Gurung Community. 

Dhampus is the best point to view the Fishtail Mountain, the Annapurna Range, and the Dhaulagiri mountain. Located in the Annapurna region, the trek can also start from Phedi, which is an hour away from Pokhara. While you stay at Sarangkot, you can experience the thrilling activity of paragliding soaring through the clear blue skies.
