::    Machhapuchhare—The Other Sanctuary

Code:
SAANT50
Starting from: Sarangkot
Ending at: Sarangkot
Grade: Moderate
Highest access of the trek: The Other Sanctuary - High Camp (4634m)
Departures: Feb-May, Aug-Nov

This excellent trek is designed as an alternative to the Annapurna Sanctuary. The route climbs up the crest of the ridgeline to the east, directly below the summit of Machhapuchre, and is certainly harder than the normal Sanctuary trek. Form the forested hilltop of Khorchon there is a rough passage that leads to the high ground we have called the ‘Other Sanctuary'. Several days are spent exploring the surrounding area and sightings of wild goat and Impeyan Pheasant are likely. On the return a descent is made of the eastern flank of the hills passing through the Pipar Pheasant Reserve to the Seti river and Pokhar Valley .
