    The rhododendron is the national flower of Nepal, and not without reason. There are more than 30 species of rhododendrons in dozens of sizes and colors. Rhododendrons can be found at altitudes ranging from 1,200 meters to 3,600 meters. The flower grows throughout Nepal and is remarkably colored in all shades of red, pink, yellow, purple, and white.

      This is the starting point from Ghorepani towards Tadapani and so on. A continuous uphill battle fighting against thinner oxygen level and millions of blood sucking parasitic leeches under extremely humid dense forest covering. That said, it's absolutely worth it!!

        Large rhododendron forest, great for hiking.
