Classic
Annapunrn Trekking to Hidden alpine
amphitheater of Annapurnas Base Camp |
The aptly named Annapurna Sanctuary
also known Annapurna Base Camp trek
is the most intensely scenic trek
in Nepal. The Annapurna range is
a vast massif with several peaks,
which lies between the Kali Gandaki,
and Marsyandi river valley, forming
a solid, mountain bastion. Within
its span of 40 miles, it encompasses
dozen of peaks that are higher than
7000m and numerous others over 6000m.
Leaving Pokhara, the beautiful lake
city, we trek to Annapurna base
camp as rhododendron forests give
way to bamboo groves, which in turn
vanish into the high desert landscapes,
people of Aryan stock give way to
those of Mongoloid stock and the
dominant religion changes from Hinduism
in the lower reaches to Buddhism
higher up. Passing through the Machhapuchare
and Annapurna base camp directly
below the dramatic fishtail peak,
our destination is the vast natural
amphitheatre of the Annapurna Sanctuary
where we are ringed by glistening
peaks.

Our experience
with Mountain Monarch exceeded our
expectations on all dimensions.
Of course the adventure was visually
stunning, trekking through the rhododendron
rich forests with 8000-meter peaks
filling the blue sky. But our experience
with Mountain Monarchs was so much
more. Mountain Monarchs, a relatively
small operation, provides the personal
attention that creates a relationship
with the guides and opportunity
to become intimately acquainted
with the culture and people of Nepal.
It was a fascinating process that
started with a few emails exchanging
questions about the trek that evolved
into a friendship with the staff
and a deep commitment to the Nepalese
people. For those individuals that
are in the process of determining
which trekking company to select,
let me make it easy for you...Mountain
Monarchs will take the best care
of you, make you laugh and personally
attend to all of your needs. They
are awesome!
