Annapurna Circuit Trek is one of the world’s classic, most diverse and stunning trekking route in Nepal. Trekking around Annapurna unleash the dramatic contrasts between green terraced farmland of the Marshyangdi valley to the superb Himalayas vistas of Lamjung, Himalchuli, Manaslu, Gangapurna, Pisnang, Nilgiri, Tilicho, Tukuche, Fishtail, mighty Dhaulagiri and Annapurna ranges towering spectacularly over the valley. Rich cultural diversity of Hinduism, Tibetan Mahayana, Buddhism and the mysterious Bon-Po religion still co-exist and intermingle with each other in this region.

We start the Annapurna Circuit trek from Bulbule after a drive from Kathmandu. Trekking begins through terraced farmland, temperate forest and alpine meadows, before entering the high valleys with the glacier-dolloped Annapurnas towering almost 5000m above you. We trek over the Thorung la at 5416 meter with the challenge and sense of achievement. The views from the pass is truly spectacular, spreads from the northwest wind eroded “Once Forbidden Kingdom” of Mustang valley to incredible mountain ranges of Annapurna and Dhaulagiri to the southwest. Descend towards Kaligandiki valley from the pass is challenging but rewarding. We enjoy and explore the arid beauty of Tibetan plateau on the way to the shrine of Muktinath, a pilgrimage site being worshiped by both Hindu and Buddhist devotees together. The Annapurna circuit trek travel itinerary continues with the descend through the Nepal -Tibet trading villages along the dramatic Kali Gandaki valley, the world’s deepest gorge on the back dropped by sensational views of Mount Nilgiri and Dhaulagiri.

The last but not the least highlight is an early morning hike of the well-known viewpoint of Poon Hill to witness the glory of the sunrise over the Dhaulagiri and Annapurna ranges. Exploration of Kathmandu’s wonder world heritage sites and pristine peaceful lake city of Pokhara adds more charm in your adventure holiday travel to Annapurna Circuit trekking in Nepal.
