Major Problem with Annapurna Sanctuary Trek

The major problem with this trek is that it can become impassable because of snow and avalanches in winter and early spring. It is the only major trekking route in Nepal that has significant avalanche danger, so you must inquire locally whether the trail is safe. Some trekkers have died because of avalanches, and others have been stranded in the sanctuary for days.

Avalanche rescue: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avalanche_rescue

Currently the most dangerous problem of this trek is the part between Deorali and Machhapuchhare Base Camp (M.B.C). As we trekked from Sinuwa to Himalaya we heard about that there was an avalanche in the front of the road and 5 Chinese people are covered by snow (live or die). Therefore our guide Tek suggested that we might stay one night at Himalaya. However, other trekkers also had the same idea of ours and thus there were no free rooms (including dinning rooms) at Himalaya. Unfortunately we needed to continue going to next night stop Deorali.

Anyway, the most dangerous problem is unpredictable avalanches. Nobody gets a prize for passing dangerous routes.

VISA
  • 落地簽證

山證申請
  • 如果要進入 Annapurna Conservation Area,要申請 TIMS Card 及 Entry Permit to Trek in Conservation Areas。
  • 當地申請。地址:Pokhara: Nepal Tourism Board, Tourist Service Centre, Pardi Damside (for Annapurna only) Opening hours Sunday to Saturday except on public holidays in Pokhara: 10 am – 5 pm
