Pictures from the Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek and sunrise over the Annapurna Range.
I’m not going to try and name the peaks because I know I’ll just mangle them. Take the trek yourself; it’s much better in person anyways.
The photos are in reverse chronological order, but I’m too lazy to fix them.Β If it bothers you THAT MUCH, just go to the bottom of the post and scroll up.
Enjoy!

Ghorepani from above. I love the blue roofs!

Prayer flags flying near massive cell tower. Wonderful juxtaposition!

Fishtail and Annapurna South(?) on walk down

Powerful Himalayan sun

Me and Sol

Cold hands, happy face.

Memorial to… someone.

So many selfies…

Fishtail Peak. The only unclimbed peak in Nepal. The Nepali consider it sacred.

Maybe a third of the crowd… taken from a big tower on the hill.

Sol’s guide, I think…

Waiting for sunrise….
If you enjoy the photos, and would like to learn more about the experience of trekking in Nepal, I’ve been writing a book aboutΒ it! Check out the published chapters here. Best!
It looks so beautiful there, I’m planning to do it soon. What was your accommodation like?
Accomodation is pretty basic- twin beds in a basic room. But you’re usually tired enough after a day of trekking that it doesn’t really matter
Thanks for that! π
Your photos are stellar! Beautiful shots! π
Thanks Meghan! ππ

Would love the opportunity to see this! Great pictures!
Breathetaking photographs… You are very talented!
