2021018641Ghale Gaun (village) holds a special place not only in Nepal but also in Asia for being one of the pioneers to promote village tourism. This village in the truest sense introduces and portrays the Ghale community and their way of life. A two hour ride on a vehicle or a six hour walk will take you to Ghale Gaun from the district headquarter Besisahar. The walk up to the village on cobbled stones is exhilarating. Half hour away from Ghale Gaun is a steep rocky cliff which is a prime and picturesque area for visitors who love wild bee honey hunting. Always welcoming and warm, the village is predominantly a Gurung settlement which promotes village tourism with the concept “One house, One guest” .Even with the influx of tourists through the homestay arrangement, the village continues to maintain its cultural practices and social values. The SAARC village tourism museum which was established in the village in early 2017 has also helped attract visitors from regional countries in South Asia. Activities to experience in the village which fall within the Annapurna Conservation Area are Gurung culture, metal craft, unique tea gardens and organic farming.
