The 500-metre walking trail through the rocks connects Kunjho and Lete. Other destinations are located in Thasang Rural Municipality: Gurusangbo Cave, as well as Sekung and Bhutarchho lakes in Ward 2 and Titi Lake in Ward 5. This distinction can help when planning accommodation in Lete: the trail directly includes the settlement, while the cave and lakes are destinations within the municipality it belongs to.
The Rocky Path Between Kunjho and Lete
The walking trail was built after the old route was relocated following construction of the Beni–Jomsom road. Its construction includes drilling through the mountain, iron bars and retaining walls. The 500-metre route is therefore not just a connection between two places; it is also linked to a specific change in the local route network.
Lakes and Wildlife in Thasang Rural Municipality
A 191-metre stone-paved footpath runs around the rounded Sekung Lake. The lake is approximately 150 metres long and 20 metres wide, and lies at an elevation of 2,725 metres. A report dated 18 August 2025 also describes a masonry public toilet there with two rooms. For Bhutarchho Lake, the same report mentions a 160-metre footpath and a masonry toilet with two rooms. Check the current condition and usability of the toilets before visiting.
Bhutarchho Lake provides a habitat for various species of ducks and birds, as well as muntjac. For Titi Lake, the Annapurna Conservation Area Project lists 186 bird species, including three species of duck. A report dated 18 August 2025 also mentions two rest shelters and 16 benches there. These lakes offer different highlights: at Bhutarchho Lake, the described habitat is the focus; at Titi Lake, it is the documented variety of bird species.
Routes and Access to the Destinations
Access to Gurusangbo Cave follows the Beni–Jomsom road through Lajung and Bokshikhola by vehicle to Naurikot; from there, it is a one-hour walk. Check current road and trail conditions before setting out. A 3.51-kilometre road has also been built from Tangchhar on the Beni–Jomsom road, via Sekung Lake, to Bhutarchho Lake.
A walking trail of about 30 minutes connects Sekung and Bhutarchho lakes. Titi Lake is in the vicinity of Lete and Kobang. From these settlements, it is about a one-and-a-half-hour walk to the lake; road and footpath are available as access options. The time estimates refer to different routes: the connection between two lakes and the approach from nearby settlements.
Plan Your Accommodation Around Your Day Trips
When looking for a holiday apartment in Lete, it is worth first deciding what your trip will focus on: the trail that directly connects Lete with Kunjho, or destinations in the wards of the municipality it belongs to. Routes and access vary there—from a stretch by vehicle followed by a hike, to the footpath between two lakes or the longer approach from a nearby settlement. Plan your overnight stays around the destinations you actually want to visit, and do not automatically treat destinations in the municipality as being in the settlement of Lete.
