One
of the finest trekking routes in the massif of Annapurnas. This easy
but mostly up and down route follows the main trail to Annapurna Sanctuary
and traverses through scenic rice fields, beautiful villages mostly
inhabited by Gurungs and lush forest of rhododendron trees. The views
of Annapurnas and Machhapuchhare rise in front of you from the start
of your trek. |

From
Ghorepani you get an even better and close up views or two ranges Annapurna
and Dhaulagiri. Early the next day early morning an hour's steep hike
up from Ghorepani to Poon Hill is quite difficult but the reward of
seeing the views of sunrise over the giant mountains from hill-top tower
is breathtaking. This trek too ends after the 3000 steep stone-staircases
in Ulleri village is and finally ending at Nayapool. |
