Dhaulagiri round trek and Dhampas peak
October 8th, 2010
Dhaulagiri Circuit Trek is a challenging trek around the Dhaulagiri Peak (more...)
Annapurna Base Camp Trek.
Overview:
The Annapurna Sanctuary trek also known as the Annapurna Base Camp trek is famous for trekkers. The principal peaks of the western portion of the great Annapurna Himal, including Hiunchuli, Annapurna South, Fang, Annapurna, Ganagapurna, Annapurna 3 and Machhapuchhare, are seen almost circular about 10 miles in length with a deep glacier-covered amphitheatre at the centre. From this glacier basin, known as the Annapurna Sanctuary, the Modi Khola cuts its way south in a narrow deep gorge . Further south, the gorge opens up into a wide and fertile valley, the domain of the Gurungs (Gurkha). The middle and upper portions of Modi Khola offer some of the popular trekking routes in Nepal, and the valley is located so that these treks can be easily combined with treks into the Kali Gandaki region to the west.
