Thorong Pass and the Annapurna Circuit

In this blog I am sharing some of the pictures, videos and my experiences about my travelling at different places.

This one is about my trek around Annapurna Circuit. The trek starts from Besishahar of Lamjung district of Nepal.

The highest point of the trek entails crossing of the 5416 m world’s highest Pass Throng La, from the arid valley of the upper Manang, home of Tibetan- Buddhists, getting down to the Hindu pilgrimage site of Muktinath, and the Kali Gandaki valley, the world’s deepest river gorge.

Annapurna region is best described as the most happening incentive trekking destination in the world. We started the trek right from the Bagarchhap of Lamjung district and went along the Marshyangdi River, with great view of Mt. Manashlu and Mt. Himal Chuli to the east. This magnificent trek lead us to the fine village inhabited by a wide diversity of people from different ethnic groups, offering spectacular and majestic view of the white Himalayas.

  

   

As it continues to the north of the main Himalayan range on to the high and dry Tibetan Plateau, the scenery is equally breathtaking. To top it all, the crossing of the Thorong La (pass) at 5,416m altitude is the most challenging ascent. 

More about this trek, you can find it on my YouTube Video..Cheers.!.
