Journey to Annapurna Region
Nepal's
one of the most popular trek begins at lakeside town of Pokhara
and leads six or seven days north-west around the Annapurna
massif, through dramatic changes in landscape, climate and
culture to the high village of Jomsom, near the isolated land
of mustang. Trekkers often continue on to the sacred shrine
of Muktinath, near the 5415 meter Thorang-La pass and down
into the lovely valley of Manang. The route through Manang
circles the Annapurna back to the Kathmandu-Pokhara highway.
The Annapurna circuit takes one through terraced hills, forests,
and alpine pastures and through the village of the number
of different cultures. North of Pokhara is an area protected
by Annapurna Conservation Area Project, tucked beneath the
southern slopes of the Annapurna Massif. The Sanctuary is
an easy trek from Pokhara and takes one through some of Nepal's
most lovely rhododendron forests to the Annapurna Base Camp.
There are also numerous one or two day treks out of Pokhara
town, where one can have views of Dhaulagiri, the Annapurna
range, Manaslu, and Ganesh Himal.
