| The circuit of the
Annapurna is one of the great walks in Nepal as it passes
through a variety of Himalayan environments. The trek begins in
the lush Marsyangdi Valley, home to the Hindu farming families
of Brahmin, Chhetri and Gurung tribes, and enters the dry, arid
region of Manang inhabited by Buddhist Manangis of Tibetan
origin. It also reveals some of the most beautiful mountains
like Annapurna II (7,937m), Gangapurna (7,485m) and Tilicho Peak
(7,134m). This trip provides the experience of both the scenic
and ethnic diversity of Nepal with the added excitement of
crossing Thorung Pass (5,416m - high but technically easy). Then
to descend and walk through the world's deepest gorge 'The Kali
Gandaki', which splits the Dhaulagiri and Annapurna massifs
towering 6,000 meters above. |
