Annapurna Circuit


Introduction


Annapurna Thorung La

One of the most beautiful and abwechlungsreichsten tours in Nepal.

This trek leads to vastly varied by almost all climate zones of the world. You get to know the Nepalidörfer in Pokhara as well as the Tibetan places to Manang.

The highlight is the crossing of the La Thorung with 5416 m.

Because of road construction, we are constantly trying to find new ways off the old route. However, it must be moved again and again on the newly installed line. You can imagine here, however, no road in our mind - it's a dirt road bessserer.

In Tibetan valley behind the Annapurna you take two of Braga interesting day trips. Visit the Milarepa cave on the north face of Annapurna III and climb to 4,600 m in ice lake with stunning views up to the Annapurna.
