Anna Purna trail, amazing Nepal!

6th November, 2017

Completed the Annapurna circuit, an awesome trek in the beautiful mountains of Nepal. The trek takes you up to Throng La pass (5400+mtr) and passes lovely small towns with it's friendly people.
It's not a tough trek and can done by anyone who has a moderate fitness. But, high mountains can be dangerous, prepare yourself! Eating and sleeping was done in several lodges along the trek. Picking the right one was done by our guide and saved us a lot of time and possible wrong choices.
We were guided by Ram Bahadur Tamang, a guy who knows all about the area and Nepal. He took care of us and arranged the whole trip, we only had to enjoy it! Thanks Ram, well done!
