BANTHANTI - Serpentine
- 2,290 meters
This kilometer long serpentine village was built recently to cater to visitors. Before, it was just 'Banthanti', a rest house in the forest (Ban=Forest; Thanti=Rest House). If you feel like it, get some rest here and past the last of the lodges, the forest will begin in earnest. And if it is spring, the forest will be on fire with rhododendron blooms.
