The trek around the Annapurna Massif is one
of the finest in the Himalaya.
 The sheer diversity of the mountain escape, the exhilaration
of crossing a high mountain pass, and the unsurpassed
views of the Annapurna, Dhaulagiri and Manaslu Ranges
are the essentials of this outstanding trek. Trekking
north, we acclimatize at the important trading village
of Manang (3351m), before crossing the Thorung La
(5380m). As you reach the pass, line after line of
snow ridges stretch before you, while far below lies
the sub-tropical Kali Gandaki Gorge.
From the heights of the pass we descend to Muktinath
and its scared Buddhist and Hindu Shrines. Further
south, the contrasts of the Nepal Himalaya become
even more apparent, as high windswept passes are replaced
by forests, or mandarin and banana groves. Finally
we trek out of the gorges and look back to the peaks
of the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri, before traversing
the forest ridges down to Pokhara.
