Camping at Sarangkot, Pokhara, Nepal

11th May 2010

The camping at Sarangkot, Pokhara was a great one! The view was breathtaking and took away my backpain, from the grueling 6 hours ride, almost instantly.

From up here, I could see the city of Pokhara and its lake on the north-western outskirts of the city.

For your information, Sarangkot is located on a mountainside ridge at an altitude of 1600m with panoramic Himalayan views.

Lucky for me, I  got to meet German traveler couple, Barbara and Uwe, who camped besides me.

They have traveled the world including Malaysia in that pick-up truck. They are still traveling and have a website called Starseite.

Locals – they were watching me watching them

If you are ever in Nepal…Sarangkot is a must-see place. View more of my pictures and you will know why. Enjoy!

    Pakai kamera apa bro? berapa SD card bawak utk rekod video dan gambar?

    bagaimana pula isu charge kamera, hp, laptop? power supply sana sama rate/ plug nya?

    mungkin boleh snap sikit gambar anda makan.., suasana kedai makan di sana., orang2 di sana.. , suasana dlm khemah.. dan apa saja gambar yg berkaitan dgn perjalanan anda.

    1. Thanks bro.
      all question ni dah terjawap dah.
      gambar dan vid semua transfferred to laptop to edit.
      camera SLR ada pakai jugak.
      no issue in charging laptop n the rest.
      always keep ur gadjet batt full before the next ride.
      if not susah la
      but my bike ada external power supply just in case.
      pictures of the rest will be uploaded soon.
