The Annapurna range is a prominent series of Himalayan peaks stretching 55 kilometers, with Annapurna I towering at 8,091 meters. It ranks as the world’s 10th-highest mountain and is among the 14 famed "eight-thousanders." Located in central-northern Nepal, the Annapurna region is bordered by the Kali Gandaki River to the west, the Marsyangdi and Dudh Khola valleys to the east, the Pokhara valley to the south, and the Himalayan foothills bordering Tibet to the north.

The name “Annapurna” is derived from Sanskrit, meaning “full of food,” and is often interpreted as the Goddess of the Harvests. In Hindu tradition, Annapurna is a deity of nourishment and agriculture, and an incarnation of the goddess Durga. The entire massif and its surrounding landscapes are safeguarded within the Annapurna Conservation Area Project (ACAP), Nepal’s first and largest conservation initiative, spanning 7,629 square kilometers. Established in 1986 by the King Mahendra Trust for Nature Conservation, this protected area allows visitors to witness the region’s rich cultural and ethnic diversity—particularly while undertaking the iconic 3-week, 118-mile Annapurna Circuit trek.
