AROUND ANNAPURNA TREK |
|
The trek around the
Annapurna Massif is one of the finest in
the Himalaya. The sheer diversity of the
mountain scape, the exhilaration of
crossing a high mountain pass, and the
unsurpassed views of the Annapurna,
Dhaulagiri and Manaslu Ranges are the
essentials of this outstanding trek.
Trekking north, we acclimatize at the
important trading village of Manang
(3351m), before crossing the Thorong La
(5380m). As you reach the pass, line
after line of snow ridges stretch before
you, while far below lies the
sub-tropical Kali Gandaki Gorge.
From the heights of the pass we descend
to Muktinath and its scared Buddhist and
Hindu Shrines. Further south, the
contrasts of the Nepal Himalaya become
even more apparent, as high windswept
passes are replaced by forests, or
mandarin and banana groves.
Finally we trek out of the gorges and
look back to the peaks of the Annapurna
and Dhaulagiri, before traversing the
forest ridges down to Pokhara. |
