About
District administratif de la province de Gandaki dans l'ouest du Népal, qui abrite la ville touristique populaire de Pokhara et constitue la porte d'entrée vers la chaîne de montagnes d'Annapurna.
Kaski District lies in western Nepal, within Gandaki Province. It is an administrative district, and most visitors come to it for one reason: it is the home of Pokhara, the country's well-known tourist city, and the gateway to the Annapurna mountain range.
What the district offers
- Pokhara as a base. The city serves as the usual starting point for travellers exploring the area, with places to stay, eat and plan onward trips.
- Access to the Annapurna range. Because the district opens onto these mountains, many visitors use it as their point of departure for trekking and mountain views.
- A varied area to explore. Beyond the city, the district is a setting for outdoor activity and time in the countryside around the mountains.
Planning a visit
Kaski suits travellers who want a relaxed, well-served base in the Himalayan foothills, as well as those headed further into the mountains. Pokhara is the easiest place to begin, and the surrounding district is worth a few days if you want to combine town life with the landscape. Check current conditions and transport before you set out, as these can change from season to season.
