Annapurna Base Camp yoga Trek

Published on: Fri 08 Sep, 2023 - Ram Kumar Puri

The Annapurna Circuit trail takes you through an ever-changing landscape of rice fields, misty forests, and tiny villages. Starting out at Nayapul, we encounter sub-tropical heat, pretty villages, neatly terraced rice fields, and colorful Rhododendron forest. The panorama of prominent Mt. Annapurna, Mt. Dhaulagiri peaks from the vantage Poon Hill viewpoint [3190m] above Ghorepani are the most spectacular mountain escapes on Earth. The Ghorepani Hill point mesmerizes with a heavenly view of sunrise and golden color views of Annapurna ranges. We retrace back to Ghorepani and follow route Tadapani – Chomrong. Above Deorali, the valley widens and becomes less steep and you can see the gates to the sanctuary. Machhapuchhre Base Camp is another heavenly trail with stupendous mountain views including Hiuchhuli, Gangapurna, and the ever-changing Machhapuchhre, whose sheer triangular face takes on yet another aspect here. The trail finally stumbles across moraines and reaches the world of ice and snow Annapurna Sanctuary from where you will see incredible 360-degree views of the Annapurna ranges and above the massive Annapurna glacier, some distances of the Annapurna Base Camp (4130m). Collecting lifetime experience, we retrace from Annapurna Base camp to Chomrong then trek to the Jhinu where is the natural hot spring and catches easily walking to Phedi.
