| The
great Himalayas of Nepal are well known as one of the best destinations
in the world for enjoying the real beauty of the nature. Trekking along
the trails into the interior parts of the country will lead you to
ancient foot trails that you will always remember for the scenic
river-banks, terraced fields, forested ranges and mountain villages. Trekkers
may walk along the rough but beautiful trails in the lap of green and
friendly looking hills. You will be impressed by the rhododendron
filled green dark and deep forests with different seasonal flowers
blossoming, domestic and forest animals, varieties of birds,
monasteries, temples, mountain landscapes and the warm greetings from
smiling local people. |

| Round
Annapurna Trek (20 days) |
The Around Annapurna trek, or
Annapurna circuit, takes about 18 to 23 days. It depends upon your
pace, and the time you want to spend in each place on the way. It would
be better to go slowly. it is good for your health (acclimatization to
the heights should be done gradually) and the places are so beautiful.
Take your time to enjoy every moment.
The trek is almost fully round, and the best way to do it is
"anti-clock-wise". The first part of the trek takes you up the
Marsyangdi river, and then you cross the amazing "Thorong-La" pass
(5416m high) and complete the route while descending through Muktinath
and Kali-Gandaki river. During the trek, you actually surround the
Annapurna ridge. You can see the beautiful landscape, forests, culture
of different ethnic groupes and magnificent mountain view.
