Annapurna Sanctuary Trek

Trek high into one of the most beautiful glaciated valleys of the Annapurna range and find yourself surrounded by the full majesty of the Himalayas. Your approach route through the Annapurna Conservation Area offers the potential of wildlife viewing, interaction with friendly villagers, and a vigorous hike through varied, protected habitats. This trek is excellent both in the spring for vivid blooming rhododendrons and sunbirds and in the fall for the clearest skies, local festivals, and the color and activity of harvest season. You will encounter Buddhist and Hindu villagers, schools, reforestation projects, sustainable energy experiments, neatly groomed communities, dense bamboo forests, steep trails (possibly muddy), rushing streams, massive glaciers, and maybe mountaineers, ex-Gurkha soldiers, Maoist cadres, and a few other trekkers. This trek is safe, spectacular, and supremely rewarding of the effort you invest to reach the goal of the beautiful Annapurna Sanctuary. Ask us also about a lodge stay trek.
