Annapurna Expedition at 8091m is a challenging technical expedition in Nepal, located in the Central Nepal Himalayas at an altitude of 8091m above sea level. The mountain is ranked the 10th-highest summit in the world and is one of Nepal's renowned mountain ranges. Climbing Annapurna is both adventurous and spiritual, as it brings you close to nature and the glaciers that nourish the rivers in the region. The Annapurna massif consists of two faces: the famous West South Face and the less popular Annapurna Sanctuary. The massif is protected in the Annapurna Conservation Area, which covers 7629 sq km over the Manang, Mustang, Kaski, Myagdi, and Lamjung districts. The Annapurna I Expedition is one of the best destinations in the Annapurna Himal range, offering an impressive view of the Himalayas.  Mount Adventure Holidays offers a professional and proficient expedition in Nepal, including Mount Annapurna Expedition I, the 10th highest mountain in the world. The expedition includes visits to various peaks within the Annapurna Mountain Ranges, including Annapurna I, Annapurna II, Annapurna IV, Annapurna South, Dhaulagiri, Gangapurna, Himalchuli, Machhapuchhare (Fishtail), Lamjung Himal, Hiunchuli, and several peaks within the Annapurna Mountain Ranges.

The Annapurna Conservation Area Project (ACAP) protects the entire Annapurna massif and surrounding region, making it a popular destination and an enchanting spot on Earth. However, climbing Mount Annapurna is dangerous due to the high risk of avalanches and ice cliffs. The expedition starts in Kathmandu, followed by a scenic drive to Pokhara, Nayapul, and Ghorepani. The best time to visit Mount Annapurna is in the spring and autumn. Mount Adventure Holidays offers packages for the Annapurna I Expedition (8091 m), including logistics, transportation, accommodation, and a professional mountain guide. They aim to help climbers achieve their summit dreams in Nepal and make professional peak climbing a reality.
