The Gurungs, an indigenous community, are the inhabitants of Dhampus village. Many tourists choose to stay here as a resting point while trekking in the Annapurna region of Nepal.

Upon leaving the lush greenery of the jungle behind, a short hike brings you to Dhampus, where you can marvel at the imposing Mt. Machhapuchhare and the Annapurna Himalayan Range. Mt. Machhapuchhare, also known as the fishtail mountain, stands tall at 6991 meters and bears a resemblance to a fish’s tail.
