Duration of day :7-12 days
Duration a day walking: 5 -7 hours per day
The
diverse terrain and variety of cultures of the region north of Pokhara
make each day's walk a different experience and make the area the most
popular destination in the country. Four favorite treks, each with
minimum of about one week and maximum of three week treks, to
Kali-Gandaki basin include Manang region, Annapurna range, Jomsom and
the Annapurna Sanctuary. Alpine meadows, moraines, glaciers and
breathtaking views of the Annapurna range abound. The three hundred
kilometer Annapurna Circuit combines the first two areas by crossing
high altitude pass, Manang Thorang-La (5360 meters) and takes up to
three weeks to complete. Part of the range forms a natural amphitheater
known as the Sanctuary, ringed by Annapurna I, Glacier Dome, Gangapurna,
and the fishtail - shaped peak of Machhapuchhre. This is a fairl
strenuous alpine trek, whose aim is to enable the more active walker to
quickly get up to snowline not far above our camp. In the Sanctuary,
there are opportunities to scramble on ice and snow, and to make an
excursion to Rakshi Peak. This trek main attraction is flora and fauna,
after the Chomorang you face green hill, forest and wild nature all the
way to base camp. When you will reach in the base camp you are around
the seven peaks of the snow mountain. At that time it shows you and
gives you the feeling that you are in the heaven which will be
unforgettable in your life.
