While we had amazing views of the mountains we also spent some time walking in lush forests.

We hiked in and out of rhododendron forests throughout the day but when we popped out this was our view! It was hard walking because I just wanted to stop and stare at the mountains.

We ended our day in Ghandruk, a major settlement of the Gurung, an ethnic group of Nepal.
