The Annapurna Region is the most frequently travelled and most popular region for trekking in the Himalayan Mountains. This is one of many views while trekking into the Annapurna Region. This photo was taken just beyond the small village of Rirethanti. There are a variety of vegetative zones in the Annapurna Sanctuary which provide the trekker a sense of challenge and intrigue.
Trekkers move from somewhat dry to rain forest-like to alpine glacier at the higher elevations.
It is highly recommended to plan a visit to ABC while trekking in the Annapurna region. The sign to the right points us in the direction of Annapurna Base Camp. Patsy, friend from Texas, decided to join me on the Annapurna Trek. The trekking time is approximately 2 hours. Patsy and I are standing at the Annapurna Base Camp.
