This trek visits one of the quieter areas in the Annapurna region and has only recently become a lodge based trek. The trekking experience offers all the diversity that makes this a classic Himalayan adventure. You start the walk through lowland terraced hillsides ascending through pretty villages, beautiful forest and onto stunning high alpine passes to experience superb mountain views including the peaks of the Annapurna Sanctuary and beyond. This is one of the finest short treks in Nepal.
