Directions

Getting to Sarangkot is super easy (by Himalayan standards) and the views are well worth it. We suggest that you let us arrange our own taxi to pick you up from Pokhara and bring you directly simply and safely to Sarangkot Top. This will almost always be cheaper than taking a public taxi. Publictaxis can be expensive because Sarangkot is about 700 meters higher than Pokhara and the road is rocky, hence the peace and views. Be sure we can pick you up on time from anywhere you like in Pokhara, airport, bus park or any Pokhara hotel. Our driver will pick you up and we will meet you inperson near the very top to manage your bags up the final 100 meter assent. (Total trip time- 10 minutes) Just email: mountainprince@sarangkot.com.np or call us (24x7) on (+ 061) 695769. Please remember to make your booking first and be sure we have a room available for you as we have only four rooms. You may wish to note down our contact details now plus we will email you when we receive your booking. Alternatively: If you are fit and healthy and you want a short steep trek you can take a public taxi half way up (until Black top) and then walk using the Sarangkot staircase. For many years this was the only way to come. It will take you 90 minutes in total and when you arrive The Mountain Prince is located on the western part of the Sarangkot village road. Anyone can tell you the way. It is easy. . . . .
