Publisher's Synopsis
Dhaulagiri (8167m), the seventh highest mountain in the world, is just a stone's throw from its better-known neighbour Annapurna as the lammergeyer soars, yet its trails are a million miles away. Traditional villages are connected by enchanting woodland trails; further up eerie, primordial cloud forest leads to remote high altitude meadows surrounded by pristine peaks, tumbling glaciers, glittering snowfields and towering rockfaces.From the recently opened Dhaulagiri Sanctuary trail to the challenging Dhaulagiri Circuit, this region is truly a breath of fresh air. Come soon before its magical beauty has been changed forever by the march of time.
