Trekking Destinations > Annapurna >Sikles Trek
The Annapurna region of Nepal, a couple of hundred kilometres northwest of Kathmandu, is reknowned for its blend of undisturbed nature, spectacular mountain views, and embracing culture. The Annapurna Circuit is typically rated as one of the "top 20" trekking experiences worldwide...Now that is an understatement!
This trek is another spectacular short trek with good mountain views. It is located to the north east of Pokhara, at about 2000m elevation, in the shadow of Annapurna II and Lamjung Himal. Through large and small Gurung villages, trekkers will see a well-preserved example of traditional Gurung culture, life-style and handicraft production. Local cloth weaving and the ancient water driven flourmills are additional attractions of these villages.
