When travelers set their sights on the Himalayas, the mind often jumps to the legendary heights of Everest. However, after twenty years of trekking through these peaks and writing for the world's most established travel journals, I have learned that the best introduction to high-altitude walking isn't found at the foot of the world's highest peak. Instead, it lies within the deep, glacial bowl of the Annapurna Sanctuary.
Trekking is the best experience you could ever ask for. The natural and cultural significance to the adventures, this country has a lot to offer. Nepal's glistening mountains, exotic wildlife and ethnic richness will astound you. Adventure activities like trekking, mountaineering, hiking, peak climbing, rafting and others is bound to give you the adrenaline rush. Also, cultural tours and jungle safaris indulge you in the local authenticity.
