The Annapurna region comprised several trekking destinations, including the famous Annapurna Circuit and Upper Mustang overland trek and tour.

The diverse landscape, typical life, Bon Monastery, Sheep Herald, and their daily life sunset at Nilgiri and walking on the barren land are the highlights of this trek. These treks start after the panoramic flight to Jomsom. The flights depart from Pokhara early in the morning beside the Annapurna I (8,091 m./26,538 ft.) and Dhaulagiri I (8,156 m./26,791 ft.). After landing in Jomsom, follow the Kali Gandaki River to Kagbeni. It is easy and pleasant to walk, as you may find Fossil and Saligram on the Kali Gandaki river bank.
