- ALucy· April 10th, 2023Each day of the trek to the Annapurna Sanctuary was different and full of wonderful views. The trek was more difficult than I expected and my legs felt like they were filled with lead at times. However, the fact that the going was hard added to the sense of achievement when we reached the highest point on the trek.Show moreTrip date: March 2023Review collected by Explore!
