1. Annapurna trekkinga moment
for hiking acclimatizing in Manang A spiritual welcome gate in Chame, Manang Mount
Dhaulagiri view from Muktinath. This is a "teahouse trek," meaning there are villages
with lodges and restaurants to eat and stay in along the entire route. You are expected
to eat breakfast and dinner in the same lodge where you are spending the night. Prices
of rooms are seemingly inexpensive because of this (100-300Rs for a double) lodge
owners tend to make more money on the food and drinks they are selling you than on
the room where you are sleeping. The amazing suspension bridge over Kali Gandaki
River Enjoying the beautiful moments at Thorung La Pass at 5416mGhorepani Trek
during winter Annapurna Trekking. Manang and Mustang are of the higher elevations
and are predominantly Tibetan Buddhist. The Manang people are Gurung (not Tibetan
descent) and are very proud of their unique cultural heritage and merging of lower land
Gurung and Tibetan cultural influences. People of Mustang identify themselves a lot
closer with Tibet and the Mustang region has actually been part of Tibet in history.
Mustang also is one of the last places in the world to view the ancient Bonpo Religion
in action. Annapurna trekking has been wildly recognized as a naturalist's paradise.
The upper sub-alpine steppe environment harbors some of the rare snow leopards and
blue sheep. The conservation area has 100 varieties of orchids and some of the richest
temperate rhododendron forest in the world. For thousands of years people of diverse
ethnic backgrounds have scratched a livelihood out of its steep hillsides. Other areas of
the region protect bird species such as the multi-coloured Impeyan, kokla, blood
pheasant amongst a multitude of other birds, butterflies and insects. Many plants
native to Nepal are found in this forest. Villages to note for Bonpo are Thini and Lupra
near Jomsom, and Nargon near Kobang.
Annapurna trekking is regarded as the paradise of trekkers for it has been widely
admired and liked by many people. Annapurna Trekking offers not only beautiful views
of the mountains but also the many species of animals and birds such as leopard, blue
sheep, Kokla, blood pheasant etc.The trek goes counter-clockwise from Besisahar to
Nayapul and reaches its summit in Thorung La (pass) at the height of 5416m, or
17,769 feet. The route goes past the following mountains: Manaslu (an 8,000-plus
meter peak), Langtang Himal, Annapurna II and IV, Annapurna III and Gangapurna,
and, of course, Annapurna I and Dhaulagiri passing through the world's deepest gorge
in between those two 8,000-plus meter peaks. Poon Hill, at the end of the trek, affords
views of those two mountains, as well as South Annapurna and Macchupucchre, the
Fishtail Mountain. The other specialty of Annapurna trekking is the comfort it provides
during the trek. While being close to the nature, you can also enjoy modern facilities
and amenities as the lodges, hotels adn restaurents in the area are well developed.
Depending on the time availability, experience, budget and interest of trekkers we can
tailor-make any type of itinerary in the Annapurna trekking area. Annapurna area is
useful for those who love flora and fauna because 440 species of birds and animals
can be found in Annapurna region. The trek also goes through Buddhist villages and
Hindu holy sites, most notably the village of Muktinath, a holy site for both Buddhists
and Hindus, and Braga, one of the oldest monasteries in the region. From Dharapani to
Kagbeni you will be walking the Annapurna section of The Great Himalaya Trail, a long
distance trekking route that connects Nepal from East to West.

2. Annapurna trekking region has preserved some of the rare species of the insects on
the earth. You can also find some native plants in the forest in Annapurna region.
That's why the government of Nepal has declared Annapurna region as a conservation
area. The eastern portion of the trek follows the Marsyangdi River upstream, to its
source near the village of Manang. To get there several days of up-hill hiking are
required. Then the route goes over the pass, a grueling day of hiking, and back down
the other side, where it meets up with the Kali Gandaki River. At the end of the trek,
several options are available: following the river further to the road proper to Beni and
catching a bus to Pokhara, or adding on a trek to the Annapurna Base Camp (ABC
Trek), aka the Annapurna Sanctuary Trek. Few projects have been launched in
Annapurna region to conserve the varieties of Orchid and rhododendrons including
some species of flora and fauna. The advent of tourism and the phenomenal rise in
human population has triggered a process of environmental deterioration. In 1968
Nepal's King Mahendra Trust for Nature Conservation launched the Annapurna
Conservation Area Project. Annapurna was also the first mountain over 8000 metres
scaled succesfully. Apart from these natural bounties, you can also see amazing life
styles of the indigenous people and their culture. They are residing in the steep
hillsides for a long time.
