It is the choice each enthusiast Nepalese adventurers
encounters eventually: Everest or Annapurna Base Camp. Majority
trekkers end up hiking both eventually, because Nepal is one of those
nations it is tough to visit only once.
On
the one hand you’ve Mount Everest. It is world-famous, comes with ample
trekking adventure, many of your buddies will possibly assume you are
summiting the thing & digging a flag on the summit. On the other
hand you have got Annapurna trekking:
more diverse, less height, with superb rhododendron forests &
lesser crowds. Whose background reigns supreme? It is tricky decision,
isn’t it?
Hikers generally trek the Everest route
to arrive at the waving prayers flags of Basecamp, where several
travelers wait until their most important ascents in May. The trail is
possibly the most classic Himalyan choice in Nepal. The elevation is
higher and you are constantly enclosed by knife like summits. Gokyo
Lakes & the fewer-trekked passes at Cho La are excellent detours
from the typical route, and Island Peak will let you explore some of the
finest vistas in the grand Himalayas.
If you are
not so sure about your mountain climbing capabilities, Annapurna is a
little less demanding circuit. There’re lesser steep treks & the
typical average elevation is much lesser. Furthermore, in place of being
channeled into the Khumbu Valley on Everest, you can select from a
range of routes, some of which do not go beyond 2000 meters in terms of
elevation. The descents are also a little gentler on Annapurna, which
can assist you knees during climbing. And don’t eliminate the benefit of
a circuit trail: hiking new terrain daily without ever repeating your
steps.
If you are coming just for the mountains,
for the biggest, wildest, most steep mountains you can find, Everest is
the way to go. It’s a high altitude trek through some of the most
stunning scenery in all of the Himalayas.
Annapurna
is a totally different side of the Himalayas. You still get huge,
snow-capped peaks, but they’re more of a constant backdrop. The
Annapurna Circuit passes through a lot of rural settlements where small
farming communities cling to the sides of valleys and life is pretty
much as it was a hundred years ago.
In conclusion we can say a tour in Nepal won’t be complete without both Annapurna and Everest base camp trek. So, both of these trekking routes deserves exploration.
