This trip, easy and accessible, offers enchanting views on the most beautiful mountains of Nepal. Walk across authentic villages, away from the most frequented paths, and enjoy the beauty of the Himalayan landscapes without climbing up too high! From Kathmandu, we take the road to reach the trailhead in the Annapurna mountains. We begin our trek near the superb village of Ghandruk, facing Mt. Annapurna South (7219 m) and the superb silhouette of Mt. Macchapuchhre (6993 m). For 9 days, we walk through rice fields, rhododendron forests and alpine pastures in the Annapurnas. We come across many traditional hamlets, inhabited by Gurung people, and it’s an opportunity to discover an authentic Nepal... Here, there is no need to higher than 4000 meters to enjoy the beauty of the Himalayas: The fabulous vintage points of Muldai, Kopra and Mohare Danda offer us some of the most beautiful panoramas of Nepal: the high peaks of the Annapurnas, the superb east face of the "white mountain", the Dhaulagiri I (8167 m). We end our adventure in Pokhara, on the shores of Lake Phewa, with the peaks of the Annapurnas in the background...
