Annapurna Base Camp. Sat and waited for this shot at 3 am.
Few treks in the world combine so many different landscapes and bring you so close to the base of 7000 and 8000-meter peaks in so few days. This trek carves its way up the narrow gorge of Modi Kola until you are surrounded by a high and glaciated wilderness at the base camp of Annapurna I, which is used by expeditions attempting the massive south face of Annapurna. Annapurna Base Camp Trek follows a stone stair pathway that leads you beyond terraced rice paddies and lush forests of rhododendron and bamboo, to find yourself in a high glacial basin surrounded by eleven of Nepal's major peaks including Annapurna I, 8091m, Annapurna South, 7219m, Machapuchhre, 6993m and Hiunchuli, 6441m. This is known as the Annapurna Sanctuary, home of the divine godesses Annapurna and Gangapurna.http://euroasiatreks.com/package/annapurna-base-camp-trek/
It was my first evening in the Annapurna region. After the hectic bus ride from Indo Nepal border to Pokhra and another couple of hours journey from Pokhra to Nayapul (where the ABC trek starts from), it was the time when I was finally in the Annapurna region. . It was in fact my last eve before the trek had to start. By the evening, my hunt for my first guest house ultimately came to an end and it was time for me to sit back relax and experience the soothing view of south Annapurna. #Solotraveler #mystory #ABCtrek #AnnapurnaBaseCamp #Nepal #NaturallyNepal #natgeotravelIndia #NGTindia #Bbctravel #bestoftravel #Devstravelbag #troveron #Troverontuesday #Lifeatexpedia #GoldenHour
