Publisher's Summary

What is the best way for the average person to authentically experience the world's greatest mountain range - the Himalayas? Fortunately, there is now a good answer. The Annapurna Circuit in Nepal is the most popular footpath in Asia. Its genius lies in its design. Trekkers wind their way around and along some of the world's greatest peaks, ultimately getting near 18,000 feet, without ever having to do any 'technical climbing'. This Circuit is widely considered one of the world's great treks, and mortals from all around the world are coming to Nepal for the unique chance to 'get high'. Bill Walker ('Skywalker') struggled his way through the Annapurna Circuit in 2012. He has written this entertaining tale of his journey in this land of Sherpas, cold, altitude, and rushing water.

Excellent narration

Having myself survived a blizzard while coming down Thorangla on May15, 2024, it was like a revisit. The narration took me back to every moment of the arduous and fabulous Annapurna Circuit Trek

Honest travelogue of the Annapurna sanctuary

Very enjoyable listening to the travelogue. I struggled in the beginning with understanding the narrator due to his thick accent, but got used to it after a few chapters.
It is an honest travelogue with a mix of feelings, mostly of fear and anxiety, which are quite realistically presented by the author.
