Let your eyes look for authentic and attractive small towns and see the whole life of the locals. You will set foot on Dhap Bazaar, a small village at 2850 meters above sea level. After getting there, go to a teahouse, which is your accommodation for the night and offers a nice stay.

From Sigane, the first part of the trip will be smooth to cross due to the new road, which makes the hike easier. The road then becomes a typical Himalayan mountain road that winds through an unnatural space. Finally, you come to a village with a magnificent view of the mountain's base. Here, you will enjoy awesome views of the Everest and Numbur Himal mountains, taking your breath away. This cozy village will be yours for the night, where you will sleep comfortably to enjoy the next day's adventure.

Along the flat road, there may be plenty of rhododendron trees (if you are trekking in the spring, you can see them blooming).
