* So as to...escape the ‘rat-race’ in exchange for the beauty of Nature’s lush green landscapes including the awesome views down to the Marshyangdi that flows below.
* So as to...breathe clear fresh air midst quiet surroundings on Riepe’s idyllic hillside at a blissfully fertile, halcyon, altitude of 1,100 metres.
* So as to...tread the ancient paths linking the traditional homes while absorbing the culture, the rural nobility, of Riepe Village and of its forests and of the cultivated terraces around.
* So as to...accept the wholesome invitation of a living village that’s discovering ways to remain relevant; and in the course of which is aspiring to mores of genial hospitality and the comfort of its guests while offering fresh nutritious cuisine.
* And by no means least...though subject to the whims of Creation - throughout your stay, (and long, long before and after) standing there on the horizon will be the utterly stunning, towering, peaks of Manasalu and the Great Annapurna Range. It’s hard to find a backdrop more humbling than that.
