Trekking in Annapurna Region |
Western Nepal is significantly different than
the rest of the country, partly due to its
remoteness and that it is the least know area.
The landscape is well forested with long ridges,
dry, yet extremely poor - that is until you
reach Pokhara Valley and tranquil Pokhara Lake.
Historically, this region of Nepal has served as
a Himalayan crossroads, merging various
religions and cultures together, and for

should not miss - but only with a seasonally guide and plenty of
provisions. if you are looking for a little more adventure, then
Nepal's "Wild West" may be just the area.
The Annapurn Range consists of the massifs of Annapurna
I, II, III, IV and the Annapurna South peaks. The range also
includes the famous Macchapuchhre, the "Fish-Tail" Mountain -
the mascot of Pokhara. The trek's major highlights are the
settlement of Manang, Thorong-La (Pass) which was the ancient
mid-western salt route between Nepal and Tibet, the temple of
Muktinath, and the Kali Gandaki gorge - the deepest in the
world. On crossing the Thorong-La pass, one can see the Tibetan
plateau to the north, Annapurna Range to the south, and the
"forbidden Kingdom" of Mustang to the west. |
