A lake town with the Annapurna range reflected in it on a clear morning, the standard launch point for treks that need no technical climbing at all, and a paragliding scene that takes off literally from the hillside above town.
The best time to visit Pokhara is Mar–May, Sep–Nov, when typical daytime highs reach about 25°C (78°F).
