A Trekking Guide to Annapurna North

Annapurna I was the first 8000m peak to be climbed; in 1950 a French expedition led by Maurice Herzog reached the summit. It was an epic climb and has become a classic in mountaineering achievement. Over seventy years later, the route remains obscure, unheard of and rarely trodden. The trail up the mysterious Miristi Khola canyon is finally on the map, with a glittering route to the turquoise Narchang Lake and the stunning amphitheatre of peaks surrounding Annapurna North Base Camp. With unimaginable mountain grandeur and breathtaking trails through pristine nature, this trek is a revelation. To follow in the footsteps of those illustrious climbers of 1950 is a sensational experience that few have yet discovered.
