A short and easy trip to Sirubari is a home-stay trek on the southern Annapurna slopes at 1,700 meters. The climate is pleasant throughout the year. It takes five hours from Pokhara, some 20 km away. The village of Sirubari is inhabited mostly by the friendly Gurung people. Modern luxury is a far cry here but you will find comfortable and clean homes to stay. The food served here is completely organic and fresh, that are produced on these very slopes and terraces at the foot of the mountains. Staying out of the city for a few days, here you will love the simple lifestyle – and if you happen to be here during one of the festivals, needless to say, this village lights-up in celebration.
This small and neat village provides magnificent sunrise views over the mountains. With stone-and-slate houses and cobbled streets, this village is hospitable, relaxing and pristine. Spend two beautiful days in Sirubari Village Trek from Orbit Alpine. You are invited to be a guest of the people and experience their way of life, eat their cuisine, and take part in their daily activity.
You can visit the local cottage-industries that manufacture traditional handicrafts. There is a nursery here with a small collection of plants. With its heritage and cultural preservation effort, Sirubari has been the winner of PATA Gold Award in Heritage and Culture-Heritage category. Anybody can visit Sirubari regardless of age and fitness level. You can visit here throughout the year but we recommend you to avoid the monsoon season from June to August.
