In Pokhara we spent our time relaxing and completely recuperating from the hike. Then we went on to Lumbini, the birth place of Siddharta Gautama - the Buddha!
From there we travelled on to Chitwan National Park to stalk the rare one horned rhinos on elefant back. They are really amazing creatures (rhinos AND elefants)
Now we are back in Kathmandu where we have already prepared everything for our next big hike. Tomorrow we will fly to Lukla where we will start our trek to Everest Base Camp...
That's why we won't have internet access for the next 3 weeks...

Der Annapurna Circuit
Der Annapurna Circuit ist einer der beliebtesten und laengsten Treks in Nepal - 220km durch den Himalaya. Von subtropischem Klima bis hochalpinem Gelaende ist alles dabei! Der hoechste Punkt ist der Thorung Pass mit 5416m.

Unsere Karte hatte wirklich alle wichtigen Details vermerkt - sogar was da so auf den Feldern waechst :-)

Normalerweise sind unsere Posts chronologisch von unten nach oben geordnet. Bei diesem Trek haben wir aber aus Gruenden des Zusammenhangs die Reihenfolge umgedreht. Ihr koennt also den gesamten Annapurna Circuit von oben nach unten durchscrollen...
