Machhapuchhre) and Annapurna I-VI and easy access to trekking routes, make this area the most popular for trekkers in Nepal. The trek starts from Pokhara, Nepal’s second largest city which is also called as a queen city of Nepal because of the natural beauty of the region.
The Annapurna Conservation Area offers lush, jungly trails combined with thrilling 360-view ridge trails. There is a rich birdlife here, and in springtime the rhododendron forest blooms, offering amazing nature encounters.
