Ghandruk (Nepali: घान्द्रुक pronounced [ɡʱandɾuk]) is a picturesque traditional village nestled in the Annapurna Rural Municipality, Kaski District of the Gandaki Province of Nepal. Situated 32 km north-west to Pokhara, this traditional Gurung settlement sits at an elevation of 2,012 meters (6,601 ft) and serves as a key stop on several iconic trekking routes, including the Annapurna Base Camp and Annapurna Circuit treks.[1]

Gurung communities comprise the major inhabitants of the village. The village is home to Shree Meshrom Baraha Secondary School, a government school which provides education to children aged 5–18. Local attractions include the Gurung Cultural Museum and Meshram Baraha temple.[2] During festivals, locals celebrate with music, dance, and rituals that makes a blend of animist beliefs with Buddhist and Hindu traditions.[3]
