A pocket-sized Gurung village in Nepal's Annapurna region, Ghandruk sits at high elevation with direct views of Annapurna South, Machapuchare (Fishtail Mountain), and Hiunchuli. It serves as a regular stop on the Annapurna Sanctuary and Ghorepani Poon Hill treks, and is also a gateway to Poon Hill. The village retains traditional stone architecture and is home to a Gurung Cultural Museum and the Meshram Baraha temple, with festivals blending animist, Buddhist, and Hindu traditions.
