Day 11
Early in the morning, you set out for the difficult climb of Kang La. The path navigates between moraines before reaching this famous pass, marked by the presence of an immense chorten. Behind, the view is breathtaking on Annapurna I, II, III and IV, Manaslu (8163m.), Himlung (7125m) and Machhapuchhare (6997m). The descent to Ngawal is quite impressive with its steep slope. There is the possibility to use a fixed rope to cross the upper slopes. You go from arid areas to pastures and pine forests, always facing the Annapurna mountain range. A final slope takes you to the village of Ngawal where you spend the night in a lodge.
