This
expedition leads you well off the beaten trail, remote
Himalayan ridge through wild forests. On the way you
will visit culturally rich Himalayan villages. The
views of Annapurna ranges, the gigantic mass of Mt.
Dhaulagiri and Machhapuchhare are utterly
breathtaking. This is full of wilderness adventure
trip lies in Annapurna range central west part of
Himalayan Kingdom of Nepal! |
 |
Annapurna South lies in the
heart of the Annapurna Himal and is situated by a
spectacular ridge that connects all three mountains. This
ridge is an amazing wall, which includes Annapurna I
(8091m), Annapurna II (7,937m), Annapurna III (7,555m),
Annapurna IV (7,525m), Gangapurna (7,454m) and Annapurna
South (7,220m). The famous Machapuchare (fishtail) is also
located in the Annapurna Himalayan range.
Annapurna I is the 10th highest mountain in the world
and was the first 8000m peak to be climbed. It was first
summited in 1950 by Maurice Herzog and Louis Lachenal.
It was not until 1970 that Annapurna was summited again.
In the autumn of 1999 there were 120 expedition to
Annapurna. 106 climbers reached the summit. 54 climbers
never came back. However, I am assuming you are more
interested in trekking the Annapurna region , so most of
this information will pertain to trekkers considering
this trip.
