Volunteer in Pokhara
Pokhara is a one of the beautiful city which is located on the banks of the Phewa Lake, it is set against the panoramic backdrop of the Annapurna range and the Fishtail Mountain. Pokhara is the main the gateway to numerous trekkings in the Annapurna Sanctuary Area and other parts. The city is well developed with excellent phone and internet access, all kinds of restaurant and a myriad of gift shops. It is about 200km away from capital city Kathmandu in the mid-western region of Nepal and located at an altitude of 900m, meaning a warmer climate than in Kathmandu. To get there takes 6 hours by bus or around 25 minutes by air. We can even place volunteers in the mountain areas around the Pokhara valley and distance from your host family's home to the project site will be no more than 5-10 minutes.
