The short duration, moderate trekking route and elevation to 3210m serve as a good introductory trek to the Annapurna region and the Himalayas. The trek in the foothills of the Annapurna Himalaya takes you through beautiful Gurung villages, well-trodden village routes, farmlands and lush rhododendron forests. Along the route, the majestic peaks of Annapurna I (8091m), Annapurna South (7219m), Machapuchhre (6993m) and Hiunchuli (6441m) are often in view and offer an incredibly spectacular scenery of the snow-capped Himalayas' peaks.
