Annapurna Adventure Trek
|
You will be trekking in the Annapurna area which lies north of the lakeside city of Pokhara in central Nepal. It is dominated by the Annapurna Himalayan range which includes Mt. Annapurna I (8091m). Trekking here is very popular because of its terrific mountain and village scenery.
As you leave Pokhara and wind your way up terraced hillsides into the mountains, you will be passing through bright Rhododendron forests and charming villages perched on precarious ridge tops. The rhododendron is Nepal's national flower. Mammals like the rhesus monkey, common langur, yellow-throated marten and the Himalayan weasel are often encountered on the trek.
Nepal's cultural diversity unfolds before you on the trail. You will be walking through villages of Gurungs, Magars and Brahmins. The Gurung and Magar communities provide most of the Gurkha soldiers who have earned worldwide fame for their bravery. Ghandrung (1,940m) is the secondlargest Gurung village in Nepal and consists of closely-clustered, slate-roofed houses surrounded by neatly terraced fields. You can get fantastic views of Mt. Annapurna South and the fish-tail side of Machhapuchhre from here. You will also meet exotic mule trains that are reminiscent of the ancient Tibetan trade route. From Ghorepani you can enjoy the spectacular panorama of Dhaulagiri I (8167m, the eighth highest mountain in the world), Nilgiri (7061m), Annapurna I, Hiuncliuli and other summits. Poon Hill, offering the best peak views, is the highlight of our trek. |
