Dhaulagiri Trekking
Dhaulagiri is Earth's seventh highest
mountain at 8,167 metres (26,795 ft);
one of fourteen over eight thousand
metres. Dhaulagiri was first climbed
May 13, 1960 by a Swiss/Austrian expedition.
The Kaligandaki River flows
between through its notable gorge, said
to be the world's deepest. The town of
Pokhara is south of the Annapurnas,
an important regional center and the
gateway for climbers and trekkers
visiting both ranges as well as a tourist
destination in its own right. One can
also climb the Dhampus peak if this
area is in the itinerary.
