Annapurna Sanctuary Trek
Description
Since French mountaineer Maurice Herzog and his team first reached the summit in 1950, the allure of Annapurna has only grown. While summiting this formidable yet stunning peak is a feat for the world’s top alpinists, the Annapurna Sanctuary Trek offers a more accessible adventure. With sound physical fitness and the ability to trek 5 to 7 hours a day for a week, you can reach the breathtaking Annapurna Base Camp. Our experienced guides and porters will ensure your safety and comfort throughout the trek, from start to finish, until you are safely back at your hotel in Pokhara.
