Annapurna Explorer or Annapurna Low Land trek can be done by taking spectacular flight from Kathmandu to the lakeside town of Pokhara or you can drive to Pokhara from Kathmandu by surface takes approximately 06/07 hours under normal road condition where you can enjoy beautiful scenery, landscape along the river Trishuli. By flight you can enjoy spectacular views of the incredible Himalayan Mountains. The Annapurna foothills provide tremendous trekking with delightful trails connecting villages and ridge tops. This picturesque trek winds through enchanting villages with ochre thatched houses, terraced rice fields and rhododendron forests, which are spectacular in the spring when whole hillsides are cloaked in colourful flowers.
For decades, Annapurna I, held the highest fatality-to-summit rate of all principal eight-thousand summits; it has, however, seen great climbing successes in recent years, with the fatality rate falling from 32% to just under 20% from 2012 to 2022. The mountain still poses grave threats to climbers through avalanche danger, unpredictable weather and the extremely steep and committing nature of its climbing routes, in particular its 3000-metre south face, renowned as one of the most difficult climbs in the world.
The ridge top village of Ghorapani provides one of the finest viewpoints of the Annapurna Mountains with magnificent views of Annapurna, Lamjung, Dhaulagiri and Machapuchare with its fishtail summit. The highlight of this trip is ascending Poon Hill (3193m) for sunrise for a breathtaking panorama of wonderful snow-capped mountains. We return to Pokhara for a luxurious night at one of the lodge in its idyllic location on Phewa Tal Lake. From the beautiful landscaped gardens we may catch a glimpse of the sun setting on the now distant Annapurna and Machapuchare Mountains.
