Annapurna Region

The diverse terrain and variety of cultures of the region north of Pokhara make each days walk a different experience and make the area the most popular destination in the country. Four favorite treks, each with a minimum of about one week and a maximum of three-week treks, to the Kali-Gandaki basin include the Manang region, the Annapurna range, Jomsom, and the Annapurna Sanctuary. Alpine meadows, moraines, glaciers, and breathtaking views of the Annapurna range abound. The three-hundred kilometer Annapurna Circuit combines the first two areas by crossing a high altitude pass, Manang Thorang-La (5416 meters), and takes up to three weeks to complete.
