Step away from the usual trails and into the heart of Nepal’s countryside with our 5-day Tanahunsur Village Homestay Hike. Nestled in the mid-hills of Tanahun District, Tanahunsur is a hidden gem rich in history, community life, and sweeping Himalayan views. This gentle hike weaves through lush forests, terraced farms, and centuries-old settlements. But more than the landscape, it’s the people who make this journey unforgettable. Stay with local families, eat traditional Nepali meals by the hearth, and feel the rhythm of daily life untouched by time.
Whether you’re a first-time trekker or someone looking for an authentic cultural escape, this trek offers a peaceful and enriching alternative to Nepal’s crowded trails.
Why Choose This Trip?
This isn’t just a hike—it’s a chance to slow down, reconnect with nature, and live Nepali village life, if only for a few days. Perfect for families, solo travellers, students, or anyone seeking authenticity over altitude.
Let Osho World Adventure take you there—where simplicity, stories, and stillness await.
