Everest and Annapurna Trekking Adventures
Nepal Treks
.
With eight of the worlds ten highest peaks, Nepal is loaded with
spectacular mountains vistas. The Everest trek is justifiably famous, not only
for its proximity to the world's highest mountain but also for its friendly
Sherpa people, picturesque villages, great variety of cultures and traditions,
colourful festivals and monasteries. The Sagarmatha National Park is rich with
flora and fauna, but the existence of the yeti remains a mystery. Amongst the
many peaks that surround the trekker daily are Everest, Cho-Oyu, Lhotse, Nuptse,
Pumori, Kangtega and Tawoche.
You can trek to Everest Base Camp and see where it all began back in
1953, or you may prefer something a little more remote such as the trek to the
Gokyo Valley. Gokyo boasts magnificent views of all the major peaks and is
nestled on one of 5 beautiful glacial lakes next to an enormous
glacier.
The route to Everest Base Camp is probably the most famous mountain trek
in the world. Every spring and autumn the trail fills with awestruck walkers who
wind their way through friendly Sherpa villages. Porters and yaks ferrying
equipment seem minute compared to the towering heights of Ama Dablam, Kangtega
and Tawoche. Base Camp sits astride glacial moraine beneath the unforgiving
Khumbu Icefall, and above it all the mighty Everest.
Highlights: Sherpa culture, phenomenal mountain views, fantastic Tibetan
monasteries, musk deer and Himalayan pheasant, the trek of a
lifetime!
Few
places in the world have such a splendid variety of natural beauty as the
Annapurna region. It is a rare combination of long arrays of snow-capped peaks,
crystal clear lakes, turbulent rivers within deep gorges, Tibetan monasteries,
hot-springs, and picturesque villages inhabited by simple and friendly local
people. Behind the grater Himalaya, rain shed Trans Himalayan valley. This
three-week trek takes you far away from the road, into the heart of the high
mountains. The challenging Thorung La will make you feel like you are standing
on top of the world!
Highlights: Panoramic Mountain views, forests of oak, maple,
rhododendron, Tibetan settlements, glaciers, lakes, hot springs, apple orchards.
Muktinath is home to the holy Vishnu temple with the miraculous fire in the
stream of water. Kagbeni is the last settlement before Manang. The scenery
changes from dense forests to rock strewn landscapes and mountain
splendour.
