From Lower Pisang, the trail ascends softly at first, then more steeply to reach a ridge overlooking Manang valley. The trail then falls down to the valley floor, crosses the Sabche River, and arrives in the neighborhood of Braga town, with views of Annapurna II and IV.

Another trail from Upper Pisang leads to Munchi, which leads to Braga, via Ghyaru, Ngawal, and Julu. Before reaching Munchi, you pass through Mani walls, monasteries, and Chortens, as well as the famed Sher Gompa.

Ahead of Braga village, trekkers pass by a number of other gompas, chortens, and other historical sites on their way to Manang, which is dry and windy.

Today is the first day of acclimatization. It is recommended that you take a short stroll to a higher elevation to acclimate to the altitude. Manang is an ideal site to do it because the next two days will be a difficult and exhausting journey with quick altitude gain. When it comes to altitude, you should never be overconfident and always be cautious.

From an acclimatization standpoint, Bhojo Gompa or Gangapurna Lake are worthwhile stops. You take a short trip to Vraga, a small historic village with a monastery, which is a short distance away. You can also go for a brief visit to the Himalayan Rescue Association at this point to learn more about Mountain Sickness.
