Overview

This is a unique trek through the foothills of Annapurna south specifically designed for those who love to enjoy the flora and fauna and panoramic views of the Himalayan range (Annapurna, Dhaulagiri, Fishtail, among others) in a comfortable way.

This is an ideal trek right into the heart of the mountains. Our gentle walk starts from the lowland and goes to the outstanding high mountains with breathtaking views of the Annapurna range. The walk ends at a point where you are virtually surrounded by soaring Himalayan peaks.

The trek involves several ascents and descents but is not too difficult as there are several alternative routes to the sanctuary that all meet at Chomrong.

This trek provides an excellent opportunity to experience a fasinating glimpse of rich culture, typical Nepalese lifestyle and the ultimate thrill of trekking in the Himalayas at high elevation.
