NEPAL: ANNAPURNA BASE CAMP TREK
North of Pokhara, just little less than 45 km lies the inner Annapurna Himal with its numerous 7000m peaks around the natural Amphitheatre of the the spectacular Annapurna Sanctuary. From Pokhara ascend through the spectacular gorge and jungles of the Modi Khola passing by Gurung villages into this arena of ice and rock.
The Annapurna South Base Camp is surrounded by Annapurna I (8091m), Annapurna Dakshin (7900m), Gangapurna, and Macchapuchare among others.
Their glaciers combine in the Sanctuary and their waters leave it through a wild gorge. A technically easy tour into the very heart of the “godess of whealth”, of the mighty Annapurna.
