Thini Village

थिनी

An ancient Tibetan village across from Jomsom, considered one of the oldest settlements in the region. It can be linked with Dhumba Lake.

Thini Village sits on the eastern bank of the Kali Gandaki, facing the southern end of Jomsom. Its stone walls, narrow alleys, prayer wheels, and fields retain a traditional appearance. On the mountain slope to the south is the ancient Kuchab Tenga Monastery. From Jomsom it takes about 30 to 40 minutes to reach the village on foot across a suspension bridge. Walk north from there to Dhumba Lake and return, a half-day trip that makes an ideal light hike for acclimatizing to the altitude.
