Annapurna Lowland Region

We start our trip in Kathmandu (the capital of Nepal), taking in a day sightseeing to some of the historical sites, finishing the day with a traditional dinner and local dancing.
We then fly to Pokhara spend the day to visit some temples and the International Mountaineering Museum. The next day we transfer to Birethanti and start our trek to Ulleri.
From here we trek up to Ghorepani where it is possible to buy a number of lovely trinkets. The following day we trek up to Poon Hill before sunrise to see the magical vista of Annapurna range with views of 30 spectacular Mountains including Annapurna South and Machhapunchhre ( known as the fishtail mountain).

The  Annapurna region hosts the Rhododendrons in bloom in the March/April season. T4W has scheduled this trek to coincide with this season, at the same time giving the opportunity to be immersed in the Nepalese culture and Himalayan Mountains.
