Annapurna Circuit Trek
The
Annapurna Circuit attracts a relatively high number of
trekkers in Nepal. As the name itself suggests, this
trail goes on a circuitous route around the entire
Annapurna massif, visiting the Tibet-like country on the
northern slopes of the Himalaya and the dramatic Kali
Gandaki gorge. Much of the trek is through lowland
country, but there is one high pass, "Thorung La"
(5,416m). The trail over the pass is steep but in good
shape and not hard to follow. This is the one point of
the entire circuit where you really feel you are amidst
the mountains. However you should be aware of altitude
sickness and be prepared for weather extremes as the
Thorung La is notorious for changing its moods. The pass
is usually snowbound and un-crossable form mid-December
to mid-April. |
