Dhaulagiri Region - un-noticed attraction

Following the rivers upstream, ferns and forests of oak and other deciduous trees and juniper are interesting. Mountain sides of rhododendron blaze with colour in the spring, and other flowers are abundant on the trail. Even on high mountain passes above the tree line, tiny alpine flowers can be fund dotting the wind swept ground. The vast massif screen the hidden land of Dolpa to its north and to the west of Dhaulagiri I are Nepal’s western hills. This is also an opportunity to experience the Tibetan Buddhist culture that is through out the Himalaya.

ANNAPURNA SANCTUARY TREKKING - Trek to the Base Camp of Massif Annapurnas for 360° view

There is a good mix of high mountains and Himalayan culture on this trek. The Annapurna Himal lies between the Kali Gandaki and Marsyangdi river valley, forming a solid, mountain bastion. As rhododendron forests give way to bamboo groves, which in turn vanish into the high, desert landscapes, people of Aryan stock give way to those of Mongoloid stock and the dominant religion changes from Hinduism in the lower reaches to Buddhism higher up.
