Route notes

The itinerary PDF was written for the Annapurna Sanctuary route and has no description for the revised days. The notes below are derived from the tracks and the PDF's general plan, not quoted from it.

Route

Back down Chhomrong's long stone staircase to Jhinu Danda; the hot springs sit beside the Modi Khola about 20 minutes below the village.

On down the valley to the New Bridge crossing (about 1,480 m), then along the east bank through Namidung and up the terraces to Landruk, a Gurung village facing Ghandruk across the river.

If Day 4 was walked by Option C, the Jhinu Danda–Chhomrong section is retraced this morning.
