Widely acknowledged
as one of the world's classic treks, this tremendous route
starts in Besisahar and makes a long horse-shoe loop of the
Annapurna Himal. Mountain and valley views are constantly
changing and the initial stages wind among rich terraces of
vegetation and give way to the rugged narrows of the
Marshyangdi's impressive gorge. This, in turn, gives a somewhat
high demanding approach to the Thorong La (5416 m) which is the
crux of the circuit trek. On the western side of the Pass the
long descend takes approximately 4 to 6 hours to reach the
sacred shrine Muktinath revered by both Hindu and Buddhist
alike.
