| Abstract: | Last April I spent three weeks in Nepal, most of the time walking up to the Annapurna Sanctuary, north of Pokhara in western Nepal. This is a popular area for trekking, with spectacular scenery; and I will try to give an impression of what can be found there, with some explanation of the geology and scenery. This is a general overview of what is on offer for the amateur geologist and dedicated walker and not a detailed field guide. |
