The Traveling Freeses: Day 10

“Nothing ever becomes real until it is experienced”
John Keats

Our trek is slowly coming to an end as we continue to hike out, so sad. The views continue to be very impressive as the trail traverses up and down through beautiful farm land and small villages.

The weather is very comfortable for hiking as the day is sunny and clear. We continue along the Modi Khola (river) and we eventually cross it via a long suspension bridge. The bridge is perhaps the longest one we crossed on the trek.

The trail continues to surprise me in both it’s beauty and degree of difficulty. I did not expect the trail to be such a challenge. Having completed the Annapurna Circuit and Everest Base Camp last year I imagined this trek would be a bit easier. I was wrong!

We see a lot of flowers and local people and eventually stop for lunch in Tolka.

It’s such a beautiful day and the view is so spectacular we decide to stay in Tolka for the night. We get a room at the International Guess House and again, we have a magnificent view from our window. We sit in the sun, talk to other trekkers, sip tea and just inhale the beautiful surroundings.
