Description
Lying in the far east of the Annapurna Himalayas, Lamjung Himal narrowly misses making the 7,000m mark and is relatively rarely summited, though a number of companies organise treks into the region achieving views of the peak. Its name means 'High and Precious Hill', though one need only see it to know that it is far more than a hill.
