Round Annapurna 18
Since it opened to
foreign trekkers in 1977, the three-week trek around Annapurna has become the
most popular trek in Nepal. It passes through
country inhabited by a wide
diversity of peoples, it offers spectacular mountain scenery and it goes to the
north of the main Himalayan rage on to the high and dry plateau. To many
independent trekkers it also offers the considerable advantage of having
accommodation available each night. The only drawback perhaps are the tedious
checkpoints on this trek between ACAP and the police there is a checkpoint to
pass almost every day. The circuit is usually walked in a counterclockwise
direction because of difficulties crossing the Thorung La. Traveling clockwise
the longer ascent and shorter descent from west to east is too much for many
people tomanage in one day. The Thorung La at 5416m is often closed by snow from
mid-December to did-march and bad weather can move in at any time.
Trekkers should be prepared to turn back due to the weather or if they suffer
form altitude sickness. If you take porters over this pass you must make sure
they are adequately equipped for severe cold and snow.
