Annapruna Basecamp Helicopter Tour from Pokhara Nepal 🇳🇵

Описание: Annapruna Base Camp Helicopter Tour from Pokhara, Nepal 🇳🇵

Machapuchare 'fishtail mountain' is a mountain situated in the Annapurna massif of Gandaki Province, north-central Nepal. Its highest peak has never been officially climbed due to the impossibility of gaining a permit from the government of Nepal.

Due to its southern position in the range and the particularly low terrain that lies south of the Annapurna Himalayas, which contains three of the 10 highest peaks in the world, Machapuchare commands tremendous vertical relief in a short horizontal distance. This, combined with its steep, pointed profile, makes it a particularly striking peak, despite its lower elevation than some of its neighbors. Its double summit resembles the tail of a fish, hence the name meaning "fish's tail" in Nepalese. It is also nicknamed the "Matterhorn of Nepal".

It is a sacred peak for the Gurungs and the people of Chomrong.
The mountain is said to be sacred as a home to the god Shiva.

Annapurna 1in Nepal stands at an impressive 8,091 meters (or 26,545 feet) in elevation and ranks as the most dangerous mountain to conquer, having a success rate of only 32%, making its fatality rate stand at about 32 deaths out of every 100 successful climbers.

Annapurna is considered by many the top of the list of the most dangerous mountains to climb in the world. As of now, the mountain has about a 30% fatality rate, which means for every three climbers who reach the top and successfully descend, one person dies trying.

Those harrowing odds only attract the most experienced and bravest climbers to take on the challenge.

The mountain sits in the Himalayas of Nepal. You may be surprised to know that despite its high death rate, it’s only the tenth-highest mountain; however, it still stands at a towering 8,091 meters (26,545 feet). The mountain’s steep faces are the cause of life-taking avalanches that can go off at any minute of the climb. Similar to Kangchenjunga, Annapurna’s remote location makes rescue missions highly unlikely, but they have happened.
