The Annapurna Sanctuary is a natural alpine amphitheatre
completely surrounded by snow capped mountains,
Grandeurs Glaciers, all over 6000 meters. On
this trek we will camp deep in the heart of
the Sanctuary, as close as we can get to the
Himalayan summits.
We will witness magical sunrises and sunsets,
when the mountains, glaciers and snows glow
pink and gold.Trek begins at Pokhara with a
short drive to the road head and then a walk
to our first day at Ulleri. Over the next few
days we will walk through idyllic villages and
along ridges where spectacular panoramic views
unfold to reveal magnificent mountain-escapes.
We initially head west to Ghorepani and an ascent
of Poon Hill (3192m) for impressive views of
the mountains at sunrise. Walking through oak
and rhododendron forests we enter the Modi Khola
Valley, entrance to the Sanctuary, known as
the 'gate' is guarded by the twin peaks of Machapuchare
and Hiunchuli. Now we are surrounded by an array
of ice-bound peaks with the enormous south face
of Annapurna 1 dominating the basin. It is an
easy walk to Annapurna Base Camp and there is
time to enjoy the surrounding natural beauty.
We retrace our steps down the Modi Khola Valley
before taking a different route back to Pokhara
though Villages, see the species of Flora and
Fauna.
