Annapurna Circuit Trek - an exploration of the diverse culture, lifestyles and topography.

Annapurna Circuit Trek is one of the classic, most diverse and stunning tea house trek in Nepal. This Annapurna Circuit trekking route explores the fascinating ethnic groups having their own language and tradition. The incredible views of some of the most stunning 8000 meter peaks including the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri ranges - simply wonderful. We explore the natural diversity from lush, tropical rice paddies to moss-laden rhododendron forests. Besides that the Tibetan fortresses clinging to rocky cliffs - great natural diversity. Walking through the naturally rich terrain of diverse topography trekker has a chance to experience the rich cultural diversity of Hinduism, Buddhism. The mysterious Bon-Po religion still co-exist and intermingle with other at same place.

We have specially designed this classic circuit hike of Annapurna itinerary making it shorter. It avoids the walk on recently build road as long as possible. We start the trek from Bulbule after a drive from Kathmandu. We finish our walk at Jomsom from where we take flight to Pokhara. This hiking route keeps all the main highlights of classic Annapurna circuit trek intact. The hiking route includes the Great Himalayan trail from Dharapani to Kagbeni, the Tibetan Buddhist dominated settlements. Further more we explore the Braga monastery, the oldest in the region at Manang. Not to miss the shine of Muktinath, a famous pilgrimage site being worshiped by both Hindu and Buddhist devotees together.

Crossing the Thorung la pass - Diverse and Classic route

No doubt climbing over the challenging pass of Thorung la at 5416 meter is tough but rewarding to the great sense of achievement. Undoubtedly the view from the pass is truly spectacular on this this Annapurna circuit trek in Nepal. It spreads from the northwest wind eroded "Once Forbidden Kingdom" of Mustang valley to incredible mountain ranges of Annapurna and Dhaulagiri to the southwest. Originally the pass was initially used as a trade route, herding agricultural products on yaks and donkeys. In fact people of Mustang identify themselves closer with Tibet and the Mustang region has actually been part of Tibet in past. At the end we also do explore the peaceful lake city of Pokhara to end the exhilarating journey to the diverse region of Annapurna in the Himalayas.

Memorable trek to Annapurna circuit

We would like to thank Mountain Monarch Team for organizing a memorable trek to Annapurna circuit for us (Sep – Oct, 2016). We did a fair bit of research before deciding on the trek and booking with Mountain Monarch and we are very happy with our choice!

At the outset, their website was very helpful and provided good information on various treks. Subsequently, Mr. Pradip was quick to respond to our queries on email and phone, and these discussions helped us plan well for the trip, sitting far away from Nepal!

Once in Nepal, we met our guide Arjun and our porters, and pretty much relied on them for the next few weeks during our hike. What we liked the most about Arjun and other Mountain Monarch guides we met en route was the professionalism, knowledge (of local conditions + medical), and friendliness. Arjun was well equipped with a good medical kit and knowledge of what conditions to look for in customers. Arjun was also extremely thorough in his daily briefings and flexible to adapt to our constraints and interests.

We could also see Arjun and other guides constantly communicate on trail conditions, and update each other. We felt safe with that kind of meticulous planning. We were also impressed with the policy of “One porter for one customer”, and we could see our porters were taken better care of by their management than that of porters from other companies.
As we did a teahouse trek, we were reliant on Mountain Monarch for having a good local network to get us the better teahouse for stay or lunches, at the villages where it got crowded, and they did indeed met or exceed our expectations.

As a result, we had very less to worry in terms of logistics, trail difficulty etc. and could just free our mind to enjoy a beautiful trekking experience, and the spectacular views.
Staring from 800 m to crossing the Thorong La pass at 5,400 m, and climbing down to Muktinath at 3,800 m, while enjoying great views of Annapurna ranges, and diverse landscape each day, was an experience we will never forget in our life time. If we go back to Nepal for another adventure I the future, it would be with Mountain Monarch!

Well organised Trip

In September 2014 a group of seven Aussie’s went trekking and climbing with Mountain Monarch. The experience we all had was amazing. The trip was well organised and all of us enjoyed the friendship and company of the Mountain Monarch team.

They were always helpful and willing to adapt to any changes and had good knowledge and experience of the Annapurna circuit. Two of us split from the original group and climbed Mt Chulu West.

Climbing and camping gear was provided. We had excellent cooks and comfortable base and high camps. The skill of our climbing guides Prakash and Santa gave us a lot of confidence to tackle this peak. This climb was one of the most rewarding challenges that both of us have experienced. Thank you Pradip and your Mountain Monarch team for an amazing trek and climb

Successful and safe experience with Mountain Monarch

We recently completed the Annapurna Circuit with Mountain Monarch. We would unreservedly recommend them for those wishing to trek in Nepal. For context, we have hiked worldwide with Western adventure companies; Explore, World Expeditions and Exodus. MM was superior in many ways and deficient in none. Their goal was to ensure a successful and safe experience for all clients. From the hand sanitizer they carried and put out whenever we ate (reducing the chance of illness) to providing one guide and two assistant guides plus three porters for only 5 of us, to the extensive first aid kit – visibly carried by one guide (for quick access) we felt our needs were being looked after. Pradip was very willing to adjust the trip to meet our travel needs and always had a quick reply to any emails. It was a treat to have Pradip himself or our guide Arjun meet/drop us off at the airport, rather than negotiating that on our own, late at night, as we’ve had to do with other providers.
We appreciated that Mountain Monarch is a local Nepali company, but very aware of the needs and standards of western travellers. We plan on returning to Nepal in 2015 to hike the Everest Circuit with Mountain Monarch.
A special thank you to Arjun, your cheery disposition and bursts of singing were appreciated.

Mountain Monarch was wonderful

With the help of Mountain Monarch, my wife and I, 59 and 57, completed the Annapurna Circuit hiking in Nov 2008. The scenery was spectacular, the cultures fascinating. Mountain Monarch was wonderful. Our guide Gyanendra and Phurba were true professional but ended up being our family. From bringing tea first thing in the morning, to taking care of minor first aid, to monitoring food preparation, they took care of us every step.

They shared their culture, religion and beliefs, pointed out things of interest and entertained us. If there was a hazard on the trail, they were right at our elbow to assist if need be. I miss their companionship. Our porters were amazing. Big loads, steep hills, and always a smile on their faces.

I was impressed that Mountain Monarch ensured that they had all the equipment they needed to keep them safe and warm. Pradip kept in contact with us from beginning to end, answering our questions and insuring that our needs were meet. He took us on our unforgettable tour of Kathmandu.I initially was impressed with Mountain Monarch website, the feedback, the endorsement for Lonely Planed.

I was probably most impressed with how reasonable their prices were, but I was a little worried that the prices were too good. No need for worry. We stayed in the same quality of rooms and ate the same quality of food and received the same if not the better guide service than those trekkers on the same route that were paying 2 -3 times as much.I wholeheartedly endorse Mountain Monarch. If I am ever fortunate enough to return to Nepal, I will look no furthers. Thank you Mountain Monarch for the trip of a lifetime.

Very good trekking

Although the four of us had never trekked with MMA before, (using UK based companies previously) from our initial and tentative inquiries Pradip provided all of the answers and assurances that prompted us to cost effectively book the Annapurna Circuit trip in October 2009.

From the time of our arrival in Kathmandu, all of our transfers, additional flights and hotel arrangements worked out very well, right down to our departure too. It was good to stay at the Shanker hotel in Kathmandu before and after the trek.Yugal the guide and his support team were very good, helpful, knowledgeable and supportive. The trek itself was a fantastic experience, with very good trekking days and stunning and varied scenery, which rates alongside Everest Base Camp trek for us.

Despite wanting to go camping initially, the tea house experience proved to be better for us all (despite the difficulty in securing some accommodation because of the popularity of the circuit trek), generally staying at very friendly and welcoming tea houses.

Pradip recommendation for an extra day in Pokhara was well worth it too.In summary, we would definitely recommend MMA and use them again. Our only problem is finding a trek to rival the round Annapurna.

Faqs

This round Annapurna trek which once used to be the world's no. 1 trekking destination during departed years and which once served as a fundamental trading route between Nepal and Tibet is by far the most admired and beautiful trekking destination of all. the route is challenging, though the trek rises to an altitude of 5416m / 17,769 feet but the daily altitude gain is very gradual which prepares undemanding grounds for going over the highest Thorong La pass. Anyone with reasonable fitness can join because altitude is the major issue than the level of fitness. However our itinerary is very well designed with slow pacing and ample time for acclimatization strategy. It's indeed a heaven for keen walkers.

Annapurna Circuit is more than a moderate trek with longer hours walking. Since the altitude gain is very gradual it is suitable for anyone with reasonable fitness. However, anyone with knee, ankle, heart or lungs pre medical history need to seek medical consent before considering the trek to Annapurna Circuit. Though Mountain Monarch itinerary are so designed that the walks are challenging but not very exhausting yet some pre training is must to figure out how many hours or how much weight you can handle. With some physical preparation anyone can be ready to benefit from the paradise like setting of diverse Annapurna region

Acute mountain sickness is something we get when our body fails to adapt to the thin air environment. Though Annapurna Circuit trail has very gradual ascent yet altitude sickness has been reported among many trekkers. Mountain Monarch provides medically professional leaders with medications, oxygen cylinders and oxygen chamber bag to deal with any altitude related ailments. Besides, your leader will put forth some basic guidelines to get away with altitude sickness and as well there are multiple things you can do as precautions to ward off AMS eg taking diamox etc. so far there has not been any record of fatal altitude sickness misfortune with mountain monarch groups.

Usually not more than 6 to 8 hours excluding lunch. Since Annapurna circuit is feasible doing counter clockwise walking hours are longer also because there is more of gradual up walking trail. However, it also depends on your pace though we allow you enough time to set up your own pace to make everyday more entertaining. We usually start early so that you could reach the destination on time leaving you enough time to explore and enjoy the serenity of the place.

In cases of emergency the necessary prompt assistance will be available only if you are affiliated with a reputed company. Furthermore, if you are looking for hassle free holiday in terms of issuing permit, hotel, flights, and transportation etc it's best to go with a reputed company that offers you leaders who are knowledgeable and professionals. Reputed companies are there to provide you with quality service at a very competitive price and are there to guarantee your safety which I suppose is the biggest concern. Leaders, besides giving you all the necessary information, are there to cater you at times of any crisis no matter if it’s a mountain ailments or any weather mayhem.

Other than your group leader you will have assistant guides in your group. Your leader will sort out assigning each of his assistants in the group systematically while he takes responsibility for the slow walking people being at the tail of the group making it utterly non strenuous. Nevertheless, your leader would be counseling everyone in the group to stay together and walk collectively as a team.

Tea houses in Annapurna Circuit trail provides you with hygienic family oriented lodges with twin bed sharing rooms with clean common toilets and occasional rooms with attach toilet bathrooms. Since advance booking is not possible sometimes these tea houses during peak season provides you with dormitory facility or dining hall with heated chimney. However, we have always given our best to accommodate our group in rooms available. You have variety of choices for the food and in Annapurna circuit tea houses cooks are proficient in preparing the variety that is in their menu. So far there has not been any complaints whatsoever in regards to food and accommodation provided by us.

Annapurna circuit which is approximately 248 km / 154miles in total length comprises of four different constituency of Nepal namely – Lamjung, Manang, Mustang and Myagdi that goes through Beshisahar, Thorong La, Jomsom, Poonhill and Pokhara. The everyday shifting transformation in the vegetation and landscape is mystifyingly very touching.

Any sort of vaccination is not mandatory while visiting our country. But we strongly suggest for a personal medical consent before you sign up for this trip if you have any pre medical history.

Mountain Monarch provides you with very warm sleeping bag and feather duvet jackets which people have used it even while climbing peaks which is the mother of all warm clothing's. We also provide you with duffle bag to fit all your gears in and very warm fleece liner that goes into your sleeping bag to keep you warm and cozy during night chill.

Natural Annapurna Trekking Trails (NATTs) has indeed introduced a latest trail to assist the embarrassment of the trekkers walking into the jeep road. Though we are giving our best to skip the jeep road and take the trekking trial and since NATTs isn’t fully functional due to the survey delay after the 2015 earthquake we would in some-way or the other encounter the motor way. As a result, out of compulsion we may not fully guarantee your walk in the off beaten track but we are ready to go an extra mile to bring you very close to the nature.

Nepal air aviation is quite strict about these small planes flying high into the remote mountain airstrips like Jomsom. There are possibility of flight delays and sometimes cancellation. Since Jomsom happens to be the valley of winds of Nepal the airport would be momentarily closed whenever there is a slightest weather chaos or high velocity winds. So there is no need to fear about flying to Jomsom. However, there is also an alternative of driving to Pokhara in same day in case of bad weather for this flight.

April to mid June during spring and September to November during autumn before the harsh winter is the best time to trek to around Annapurna when the view of Annapurna massif, beautiful gorges and startling landscapes are at its best state. Keen walkers from around the world come to visit Annapurna Circuit during winter (December till February) despite the serious chill factor and lower temperature since the day time in winters offers crystal clear weather and exceptional mountain views. However, there might be chances of closure of Thorong La pass due to snow fall. As the climate change has basically altered the pattern of weather factor winter trekking is doable if there is no heavy snow, all you need to do is prepare for the worst of chill weather circumstance.

The charging privilege for any of your electronic devices is possible all the way around the trek except for few settlements in the high elevation as they are void of hydro electricity and totally relies on solar panels which may not be very reliable. So it is always wise to carry some extra batteries or the fully charged power bank batteries since your batteries run out pretty quick in the cold. Availability of hot showers may be on and off in the trek and also your leader may suggest you of not having the shower in high elevation regarding the health issues.

Yes, as per the time convenient to you and the level of fitness we can always modify this classic circuling of Annapurna massif trip routes. Depending on your time schedule you can either book for the whole circuit via Poonhill or semi circuit i.e. flying from Jomsom airport to Pokhara after the highest Thorong La pass. Mountain Monarch has always been successful in organizing customized trek for the clients as per their requirements.
