Situated in the center west of Nepal. Annapurna regional
is a large region, occupying about 80km between the Marasyandi
River in the east, the Kali Gandaki River in the west and
Mustang, the permissible kingdom indirect in mystery until
recently, in the north. Eleven high and steep peaks wheel
up including Annapurna I (8091m) The rocky Annapurna II
(7937m) the snow-white Annapurna III (7555m) Annapurna means
goddess of infertility in the Sanskrit language. It is a
female name in Nepal. Pokhara, a mountaineering base, is
a good starting place for short treks. Also Mustang is geographically
a part of the Annapurna region, but because treks to Mustang
are subject to special restrictions, this is described on
a separate page, about treks in restricted areas. The first
ascent of Annapurna I was accomplished by a French party
in 1950, from the North Annapurna Glacier. It was a brilliant
achievement as man first climb of an 8000er and the golden
age of Nepals Himalayan mountain climbing began. Annapurna
II was first climbed in 1960 by a joint party of India,
Nepal, and the U.K. Just like in the Khumbu region, there
are many popular trekking routes in the Annapurna Himal,
such as the circular course visiting Ghorepani and others
like the Annapurna Sanctuary or the famous A.B.C. Trek (Annapurna
Base Camp) Jhomsom, Muktinath etc. About two-thirds of the
trekkers in Nepal visit the Annapurna region. The area is
easily accessible, hotels in the hills are overflowing,
and treks here offer good scenery of both high mountains
and lowland villages.
