Round Annapurna
Trekking
This is one of the classic and most rewarding treks in
the Himalayas. It provides an opportunity to explore the
scenery of both the southern and northern Himalayas. You
can encounter rhododendron forests, the thin Tibetan
Highland atmosphere as well as many ethnic groups on the
way.Trekking north, we acclimatize at the important
trading village of Manang (3351 m.) before crossing the
Thorong-La (5407 m.).When 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
sacred Buddhist and Hindus shrines. Further south, the
contrast of the Nepal Himalaya becomes even more
apparent as forests or mandarin and banana groves
replace high windswept passes.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.
