The Annapurna Circuit Trek in Nepal is one of the world's most renowned trekking routes, offering an unparalleled mix of diverse landscapes, rich cultural experiences, and breathtaking mountain views. This iconic trek circles the Annapurna Massif, taking you from subtropical forests and terraced fields to the high-altitude desert plains of the Tibetan plateau. The Annapurna Circuit Trek stands as a true adventure for those who seek to immerse themselves in the majestic beauty of the Himalayas while experiencing Nepal’s unique cultural diversity.
The trek passes through beautiful villages, including Chame, Manang, Pisang, and Jomsom, showcasing the rich traditions of the local Gurung, Thakali, and Tibetan Buddhist communities. The ultimate challenge of the trek is the crossing of the Thorong La Pass (5,416 meters), one of the highest trekking passes in the world, followed by a descent to the sacred Muktinath temple.
The Annapurna Circuit Trek starts from less than 1,000 meters. Trekking the Annapurna Circuit allows travelers to explore the Himalayas, witness the beauty of Nepal and reflect on themselves during the journey. This 14 days Annapurna Circuit Trekking starts right from Kathmandu passing along the Manang, Thorang La Pass, Jomsom and Muktinath with great views of Manaslu and Himal Chuli to the east.
This magnificent Annapurna Trek leads you to the fine village, inhabited by a wide diversity of people from different ethnic groups, offering spectacular and majestic views of the Himalayas. The scenery is equally breathtaking from the north of the main Himalayan range to the high and dry Tibetan Plateau.
The highest point of the Annapurna Circuit is the Thorong La Pass at the top of the valley at 5,416 m. Due to the difficulties of crossing the pass, the circuit is usually walked anti-clockwise. Traveling clockwise, the longer ascent and shorter descent from west to east are too much for many people to manage in one day.
To build endurance and strengthen core strength, Annapurna Circuit trekkers must be physically well and indulge into some workout. It is highly recommended for trekkers to get into aerobic workouts like jogging, cycling, running, and squat jumps to improve joint muscles. To improve balance and provide a more stable foundation for navigating uneven terrain, aerobic training can be incorporated into the fitness routine. To complete the Annapurna Circuit Trek, trekkers need to be physically fit in addition to being able to walk on various terrains. Before being part of Annapurna Circuit Trek, you can get into short hikes and then go on longer hikes as they get more comfortable. Trekkers need to be emotionally charged since a lack of confidence may lead to uneasiness during the trek.
Things To Know
After you have booked your trip with us, we take care of almost everything from your flight tickets, welcoming you, your accommodation, meals and your safety too. However, there may be some problems which you are not under our control. It’s important that you get prepared for these things so that at times you won’t be as disappointed. Here are things to consider:
Most of the people traveling to Annapurna Circuit suffer from altitude sickness. The impact may vary from person to person but the air and amount of oxygen in it can’t be adjusted by everyone instantly. As travelers reach Thorang La Pass(5,416 meters) the effects like: dizziness, headache and palpitations can be seen as it is the highest point we reach during the trek. They are just the initial symptoms and can get worse if not taken care of on time.
It is highly suggested for trekkers to let their guide know about these symptoms so necessary actions can be taken immediately. One of the most effective ways to reduce the effects of Altitude Sickness is through hydration. Having Ginger tea and an intake of garlic can be helpful too to feel better at such a high altitude.
There are acclimatization days for relaxing your body and it’s important to follow along without skipping the restful sessions. As we move to higher altitude, our body gets more fragile and tired, so we have designed the 14 days itinerary to complete your trek with minimum discomfort.
The weather in the Annapurna Region is uncertain just like any other mountain trails. The weather varies almost every 2-3 hours. To tell you briefly, it may be cloudy at times and clear the next moment. The views are astonishing and the weather experience may leave you with a surprise. The nights are extremely cold so warm jackets, socks, gloves and caps are highly recommended.
Places such as Jomsom Bazaar are windy during evenings and Dust might blur or cause respiratory problems to the trekkers. To avoid this, glasses and masks must be used.
Trekkers must be well prepared for cold weather and during the packing, include protective rain gear, insulated and light airy outfits as well as clothes that can be used in all four seasons.
However, the Annapurna Circuit Trek is termed as moderately challenging; the trek from to Thorang La Pass can be difficult. The highest path encountered during Annapurna Circuit Trek is the toughest as a long and grueling walk is needed to trek from Thorang Pedi to Thorang La Pass.
You will be walking above 5000 meters from sea level and due to less oxygen in that region, trekkers might feel more exhausted than usual. In addition to that, cold air, and loose stones make it a difficult hike. We will embark on our adventure slowly to make sure no one falls sick.

1. How difficult is the Annapurna Circuit Trek?
The Annapurna Circuit Trek is considered moderately difficult, requiring good physical fitness and prior trekking experience.

2. What is the best time to trek the Annapurna Circuit?
The best time for the Annapurna Circuit Trek is during the spring (March-May) and autumn (September-November). During these months, the weather is more stable, with clear skies and comfortable temperatures. The monsoon season (June-August) brings heavy rainfall, and the winter season (December-February) makes high passes like Thorong La difficult to cross due to snow.
3. Do I need a guide for the Annapurna Circuit Trek?
While the Annapurna Circuit can be completed independently, hiring a guide is highly recommended for safety, navigation, and local insights. A guide will help you with permits, arrange accommodations, and assist in case of emergencies, such as altitude sickness.
4. What type of accommodation is available on the trek?
Accommodation on the Annapurna Circuit Trek is typically in tea houses, which are simple lodges run by local families.

5. Is altitude sickness a concern on the Annapurna Circuit?
Yes, altitude sickness is a potential concern as the trek ascends above 4,000 meters, especially when crossing Thorong La Pass. Acclimatization days are built into the itinerary to help prevent altitude sickness. It’s important to listen to your body, stay hydrated, and ascend gradually. Travel insurance should cover emergency evacuations.
6. How much money should I carry during the trek?
You should carry enough cash for personal expenses such as snacks, drinks, hot showers, Wi-Fi, and charging electronics. On average, trekkers spend around $15-$20 USD per day on personal expenses. ATMs are only available in larger towns like Chame and Jomsom, so it's important to carry cash with you during the trek.
7. Can I do the Annapurna Circuit Trek solo?
Yes, it’s possible to do the Annapurna Circuit Trek solo. However, for safety reasons and to enhance the experience, many trekkers prefer the companionship of a group or the services of a guide and porter. Solo trekkers must be prepared for navigation challenges, especially at higher altitudes and less crowded sections of the trek.
8. What kind of food can I expect on the trek?
Tea houses on the Annapurna Circuit offer a variety of meals, including traditional Nepali dishes like dal bhat (rice, lentils, and vegetables), as well as international options like pasta, noodles, and soups. While meals become more basic at higher altitudes, you’ll always have access to nourishing and energy-rich foods.

On this day of the trek, we will continue our ascent towards the foot of Thorong La pass, where we will stay overnight in Thorong Phedi.

After the river crossing, we will continue our climb up the mountain, following a narrow trail across a slope before finally reaching Thorong Phedi.
The terrain on this part of the journey is rugged and uninhabited, offering a stark contrast to the lush lowlands we passed through earlier in the trek. As we approach the foot of Thorong La pass, the scenery becomes increasingly dramatic and awe-inspiring. We will spend the night in Thorong Phedi, resting up and preparing for the challenging ascent to the pass on the following day.
On this day, we embark on one of the most challenging yet rewarding parts of the Annapurna Circuit trek. We leave Thorong Phedi (4,525m/14,525ft) early in the morning and make our way towards Muktinath Temple (3,760m/12,623ft) via the Thorong La high pass (5,416 m/17,756 ft). This pass is one of the highest in the world, and it marks the highest point of our trek.
The climb through the icy air and high altitude is tough, but the breathtaking views from the pass make it all worthwhile. As we reach the top, we are rewarded with a panoramic view of the majestic Himalayan peaks to the north, and the Annapurna range behind us.
After taking some time to soak in the stunning views, we descend toward Muktinath, a sacred place for both Hindus and Buddhists. The Buddhists call it Chumig Gyatsa, meaning Hundred Waters, and it is famous for its 108 stone sprouts that continuously pour water from the Kaligandaki river. Visitors can also witness the eternal flame that has been burning for over 2,000 years. This day is truly unforgettable and will leave you with memories that last a lifetime.
On this day, we will begin by exploring Muktinath Temple and experiencing its spiritual and cultural significance. Afterward, we will embark on a scenic local bus ride to Tatopani, which will take us through some of the world's deepest gorges. The drive will take us from the arid highlands to lush green forests, and we will be amazed by the beautiful landscapes that we encounter along the way.
Once we reach Tatopani, we will have the chance to indulge in the natural hot springs that the area is famous for. These hot springs are believed to have healing properties and are said to be effective against skin diseases. We can relax in the soothing waters, rejuvenating our bodies and minds after days of challenging trekking.
As we continue our trek, we depart from the hot springs and cross to the east side of the Kali Gandaki River, ascending to Ghorepani through the Thakali villages of Sikha and Chitre. During the trek, we will come across terraced farmlands with mountains encircling the area. The trek passes through a variety of lush forests, including rhododendron, birch, and magnolia forests. Our final stop for the night is at Ghorepani, a beautiful village located on a ridge top, where we can enjoy scenic views.
On our final day on the trail, we will wake up early and begin our ascent to Poon Hill (3,210m) to witness the breathtaking sunrise over the entire Annapurna and Dhaulagiri massif, which includes the magnificent Mt Machhapuchhre (Fishtail). Poon Hill is renowned for its stunning panoramic views and is a photographer's paradise. We will have ample time to take in the sights and capture the memories of this incredible moment.
After enjoying the sunrise, we will return to our lodge in Ghorepani for breakfast. Once we have filled our stomachs, we will embark on our trek to Birethanti, a picturesque village situated on the bank of the Modi River. The trail will take us through lush forests filled with rhododendron, magnolia, and oak trees, as well as terraced farmlands with mountains all around.
Upon reaching Birethanti, we will take a car to Pokhara, a stunning city situated on the banks of Phewa Lake. The drive will be a scenic one, as we pass through quaint villages and picturesque countryside. Once in Pokhara, we can relax and reflect on our incredible journey and celebrate the accomplishment of completing the Annapurna Circuit Trek.
On our final day in Pokhara, we will catch a tourist bus for a scenic drive back to Kathmandu. The drive takes about 6-7 hours, and we will get to see the countryside of Nepal along the way. The bus will take us through winding roads, passing through picturesque villages and towns with views of terraced fields and green hills.

As we reach Kathmandu, we will be dropped off at the bus station. From there, we can take a taxi to our hotel or any other destination in the city. Our trekking adventure in the Annapurna region will come to an end, but the memories and experiences will last a lifetime.
