Annapurna Circuit
Nepal • Annapurna Massif • Himalayas
Horseshoe trail that encircles the Annapurna Massif, going from village to village and staying at tea huts along the way. Spent 13 days on trail, opting to bus down most of the backside where the (former) trail is now just dusty road. More suspension bridges than ever thought possible. Some wildlife too - from monkeys at lower altitudes to the yaks up top. Lots of yaks and goats up top. Highest point is Thorung La Pass at 5416 meters.
