THE ANNAPURNA SANCTUARY Located within the Annapurna Conservation Area, the Annapurna Sanctuary trek offers both incredible mountain views and a chance to travel through scenic lowland villages. The bulk of the sanctuary is a gigantic glacier surrounded by 10 towering peaks each reaching above the height of 20,000ft forming an amphitheatre like structure. This trek offers the opportunity to experience the majesty of the Himalayas while staying at altitudes below 14,000ft. There will be several days spent in the Sanctuary, including trips to the Annapurna and Machhapuchhare Base Camps.
