It gained its name because Prince Charles trekked here. This is an easy and a short trek that offers good mountain views, ridge walking, forests, rice fields and different cast villages. If you are doing this trek in the summer the river may be difficult to cross due to flood. After crossing the river the trail ascends to Kalikastan, a walk on the ridges of the mountain with spectacular views of Annapurna and Lamjung Himal, through the Gurung village, rhododendron and sal forest. Half way through the walk there is a 400m descent and 600m ascent to arrive at Chisapani. This is the best point to see the Himalayan panorama. You will see the Dhaulagiri to the west of Annapurna.

This six days trek commences from Pokhara, the valley of lakes offering panoramic views of the Annapurna massif as also of the Manaslu Himal. This route was first trekked by HRH The Prince of Wales in 1980 and hence is known as the ‘Royal Trek’. This is the best trek for those who want to experience village life and striking mountain views in a relatively short period of time.
