ANNAPURNA CIRCUIT TREK (17 days) |
The classic route along
the Marsyangdi, over the Thorung La [5416m] and descent
of the Kali Gandaki Valley to Jomsom - 17 days
This is a magnificent trek that follows the Marshyangdi khola (river) from the subtropical lowlands to the Manang basin and then crosses the Thorung La (5416m) by descending to the deepest gorge in the world, the Kali Gandaki. The circuit of the Annapurna range is rich in variety and vistas, from the lush green rice paddies of the Marshyangdi to the arid high altitude Himalayan interior, and its ecological and cultural diversity provides the complete trekking experience. As you hike along the way, observing the beautiful mountain scenery and fascinating village life will keep you enthralled, day after day.
