Although the ENTIRE Annapoorna trek (which circles the Annapoorna range of Himalayan mountains) lasts 21 days, one does not need to do the whole thing. It is possible to do a part of the trekking route at your own pace and time and return back to base camp.
To trek, one does not have to be bizarre, a mountaineer or an athlete. Anyone with a pair of strong legs and the spirit of adventure to explore the exotic, will enjoy the thrills of trekking in the hills of Nepal. Walking in the interior of the country follows ancient foot trails which meander through the scenic banks, intricately terraced fields and the forested ridges connecting picturesque hamlets and mountain villages. In this immensely diverse and undulating topography, varied climate and mix of people Nepal combines to produce a magical attraction for outsiders. Many visitors come to trek here - sometimes, a bit too many.
