Summary walk through villages, then climb through forests into the Annapurna Sanctuary, a valley surrounded by high Himalayan peaks. A great opportunity to get into the mountains without altitude problems of the Mt Everest region. The site of the Annapurna south faces Base Camp, is a spectacular short trek. though it has some steep climbs, the trek is not difficult.
You can
make the trek from Pokhara to Annapurna base Camp and Back

weeks to fully appreciate the high altitude scenery. A
