Eco community trek is the short and perfect trip considered ideal for time bounded people who wants to support the community and enjoy the beautiful nature, culture, friendly people along the stunning Himalayan views at the same time. While embarking on eco community trek, the wonderful village of Nagi followed by the Mohare hill at an altitude of 3300 meters is the main attraction. The splendid views of highest mountain ranges like Annapurna and Dhaulagiri Himalayan ranges and ma alike range can  and sun rise and sun set be viewed from this Mohare viewpoint.
Annapurna Dhaulagiri Community  trek is the newly open community base trekking trail in Nepal. The Dhaulagiri community now is establishment of five community lodges and a home stay programme in this trekking route. This off the beaten track  tea house trekking trekker's can observe Mount Dhaulagiri 8167m, Annapurna I 8091m, Fishtail / Machhapuchhre 6998m, Nilgiri 7041m, Annapurna south 7219m, Annapurna II 7939m, Annapurna III 7555m, Annapurna IV 7525m, Lamjung Himal 6988m etc.


Annapurna Dhaulagiri Community trail trek through the  Magar village around Poon-hill, and fairly lies right on the Great Himalaya Lower Trail (Cultural Route). I recommend to do this trekking because the tea house is running by community where the benefits from your visit reach the whole community. That profit use education and health. Annapurna Dhaulagiri Community trail trek offers great views from Kopra and Mahare danda, the highest point of the  this trek (3,650 m) are far better than from highly visited Poon hill. From Khopera  the trekkers' enjoy spectacular vkiew of Annapurna and Dhaulagiri.  And mahare Danda is also batter view point then khopera and poon hill because from here we can see more then 20 mountain views and beautifull rhododendron forest.It is 3300 meter high from sea level.With a view to develop an exemplary tourism trail which can be environmentally sustainable and directly beneficial to the low-income families and as an alternative to already hugely populated and congested Annapurna and Everest trekking routes, MEDEP developed new eco-trekking trail in Parbat and Myagdi districts in 2010-11 through the collaborative partnership with the Annapurna Dhaulagiri Ecotourism Community, Nepal Tourism Board (NTB) and Trekking Agencies' Association of Nepal (TAAN). The route is named as community managed Ecotrail Mohare-Khopra- Khayar Lek. The trek offers a fabulous Nepali experience with a mixture of nature and culture in abundance. This Eco trekking route covers two VDCs (Banskharka and Lekfat) of Parbat and five VDCs of Myagdi (Ramche, Histan, Ghar,Shikha and Narchyang).
This route starts from Ghumaule Lake of Myagdi (Nearby Beni) and reaches to Banskharkha and Dadakateri of Parbat district and then Nagi, Mohore dada, Tikot,  Gharamdi, Khibang, Shikha, Swata, Ghandkharkha, Khopra, Khayare Lake and Narchayng Besi of Myagdi District. There are major three route (5days, 9 days and 11 days) with two main destination viz Mahore Danda (3300 masl) and Khopra Danda 3800(msal) in the circuit (See the map attached).
Contrary to other commercial trekking routes, this Eco-trail is completely managed by the local community. The management committee consists of nine local members of the community led by Dr. Mahabir Pun, renowned social worker and winner of Myagsaysay awards.  The committee is solely responsible for management of the Eco-trail including management of community lodge and dining hall, homestay, repair and construction of the trail. The income from the Trail is shared by the community (90%) and Administrative cost (10%).
