Lumle is a town and Annapurna Rural Municipality, Kaski Kaski District in the Gandaki Zone of northern-central Nepal. At the 1991 Nepal census, it had a population of 4,685 persons in 955 individual households.[1]

Lumle is well known for its agricultural centre on a hillside above the village founded in 1968 to train British Gurkha ex-servicemen farmers. Its role was expanded in 1975 to benefit the communities from which Gurkhas were recruited in Mid-West Hills. It is now part of Nepal Agricultural Research Council.[2]
