Annapurna Sanctuary |
It is easy to see why the hidden mountain stronghold
of the Annapurna Sanctuary is one of the most popular trekking destinations
in Nepal. Surrounded by a ring of impressive mountains, including
Annapurna 1 (8091m./26538ft), this high and glaciated wilderness
is, quite simply, awe-inspiring. From the terraced farmland above
Pokhara, we trek on good trails through scattered settlements and
abundant forest, climbing gradually into a world of ice and snow.
The combination of pretty villages and farmland, set against the
panorama of high peaks beyond, makes this one of the most picturesque
of treks. After exploring the inner sanctuary, we walk out via an
alternative route, following high ridges to Ghorepani. Here, a pre-dawn
start for the walk up to Poon Hill is rewarded by inspirational
views of Dhaulagiri and the Annapurnas. Presenting a magical mix
of excellent trekking, friendly villagers and outstanding mountain
views, this is Nepal at its best. |
