Sinds de Annapurna Circuit Trek in 1977 werd opengesteld voor buitenlandse trekkers, is hij beroemd geworden als een van de meest spectaculaire trekkingroutes ter wereld, met weelderig groene valleien en fascinerende dorpen die indrukwekkende uitzichten op de witte Himalaya met sneeuwtoppen bieden.


De tocht begint op minder dan 1.000 meter hoogte en geeft ons de kans de Himalaya van onder tot boven en vanuit vele verschillende hoeken en perspectieven te verkennen. Deze drie weken durende trektocht begint in Syange, langs de Marshyangdi rivier, met een prachtig uitzicht op Manaslu en Himal Chuli in het oosten.


Deze prachtige trektocht leidt je naar het mooie dorp, bewoond door een grote verscheidenheid aan mensen van verschillende etnische groepen, en biedt spectaculaire en majestueuze uitzichten op de Himalaya. Verder naar het noorden van de belangrijkste Himalaya bergketen naar het hoge en droge Tibetaanse Plateau, is het landschap al even adembenemend.


Het hoogste punt van het Annapurna Circuit is de Thorong La Pas aan de top van de vallei op 5.416 m.

Omdat het moeilijk is de pas over te steken, wordt het circuit meestal tegen de klok in gelopen. Met de klok mee is de langere klim en kortere afdaling van west naar oost voor veel mensen te veel om op één dag te doen.


Bij Muktinath dalen we af naar het westen, vanaf de pas gaan we verder naar het kale Tibetaans aandoende dorp van de Kali Gandaki - de diepste kloof ter wereld, die tussen de reusachtige bergen Annapurna en Dhaulagiri doorloopt. Nadat je de Thorong La Pas van Manang naar Muktinath bent overgestoken, gaan we naar Tatopani voor de hotsprings en beklimmen we Poon Hill voordat we afdalen naar Pokhara.


Update:


De aanleg van de wegen in Annapurna heeft de trekking op sommige plaatsen beïnvloed. De wegen zijn niet zo druk als de snelwegen en niet alle trekking wordt over de wegen gedaan, maar we willen ze zoveel mogelijk vermijden en je ervaring beter maken. Daarom hebben we onze routes veranderd waar dat mogelijk is.


Onze route loopt via de Upper Pisang natuurlijke paden. En om vanuit Muktinath Jomsom te bereiken, gaat onze route via een bergpas die Lubra Pass heet. In het gedeelte van Jomsom naar Tatopani is de weg drukker dan elders en dat is onvermijdelijk. Daarom hebben we een lokale gedeelde 4WD-rit aangehouden, die 5 uur duurt en je 1 dag bespaart.

Tour program

Day 1

Aankomst in Kathmandu (1.400 m)

One of our officials will greet you at the Tribhuvan International Airport, Kathmandu, upon your arrival. We will take you to the hotel in our private tourist vehicle.

These documents help to acquire trekking permits and related documentation during the trek. Pay the remaining balance of your invoice and sign in the legally binding trip form and non-liability disclaimer.


Overnight at a hotel. No meals included.

Start point

त्रिभुवन अन्तर्राष्ट्रिय विमानस्थल, त्रिभुवन विमानस्थल, Kathmandu, Bagmati, Nepal

Today we will take a private 4WD drive from Kathmandu to Syange. The drive will last 7 to 8 hours depending upon the traffic and the road condition. The drive to Besisahar is on a concrete and paved roads.


After Besisahar, we will enjoy an adventurous dirt road drive for a maximum of 2 hours to reach our destination Syange. We will assign the best vehicle matching the needs of the road. All our drivers are very experienced and are certified license holders for highway drives.


During this drive, if the weather permits, you can also enjoy glimpses of the mountains like Mount Annapurna II and III, Mount Machhapuchhre, and Mount Lamjung along with beautiful landscape, rivers and waterfalls.


Overnight at a hotel. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner included.

Now tighten up the shoe’s laces. We will start walking gradually following the beautiful Marsyangdi River. This walk will be slightly ascending and we will come across beautiful waterfalls on this walk. We will rest at Tal tonight.


Overnight at a guesthouse. Breakfast, lunch and dinner included.

This will be our exciting day. We will leave Marsyangdi River behind and continue our journey to witness Annapurna II and Pisang Peak and the beautiful landscapes along with old villages. Don’t miss an opportunity to take beautiful pictures as we observe the mountains, waterfalls, and countryside lifestyle of Nepal. We will rest at Danaque.


Overnight at a guesthouse. Breakfast, lunch and dinner included.

We will continue our walk enjoying the view of mountains, and waterfalls on the way. Today will be an easy day. After 4 hours of walking, we will reach Chame, the headquarter of Manang. It’s a beautiful little town with more facilities than our previous days.


Overnight at a guesthouse. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner included.

After breakfast, we continue our trek to Upper Pisang. On the way, we will walk through the dense forest, Marsyangdi River, and come across the beautiful panoramic views of meadows and mountains.


During this walk, we will see the first view of the gigantic Paungda Dada rock face, which is curved like a bowl shape. Eventually, after 6 hour walk, we will reach Upper Pisang. The place offers Majestic Annapurna II standing high on our south and we will rest here today.


Overnight at a guesthouse. Breakfast, lunch and dinner included.

We continue our trek walking through the big hills, and jungle. and wetlands. On the way, we can see beautiful landscapes, stupas, and lama schools. After 6 hours of walking, we will reach Manang, one of the happening places on the trek.

We spend a day acclimatizing in Manang by doing some walks and sightseeing around the village. We will visit a monastery and go to Gangapurna Glacier Lake during our walk. Towards the end of the day, we return to our accommodation for a night’s rest.


Overnight at a guesthouse. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner included.

After acclimatization and rest at Manang, we will be energized and excited to continue our walk towards Yak Kharka which ascends by 500 m. We make the climb steadily through Tenki Manang, leaving the Marsyangdi Valley. Continuing along the Jarsang Khola Valley, we reach Yak Kharka at 4,000 m. Herds of yaks and vegetation appear to thin out.


Overnight at a guesthouse. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner included.

After a two-hour ascent, the trail descends to cross the river at 4,310 m. We then climb up to Thorong Phedi at 4,450 m where decent guesthouses have been built in recent years.


Overnight at a guesthouse. Breakfast, lunch and dinner included.

Today is a long trek starting before sunrise at 4 am to reach the pass by 9-10 am. Otherwise, weather conditions (strong winds) will greatly affect the journey, particularly at the Thorong La Pass. We climb steeply on a regular route which is quite easy to follow.


However, some problems may arise due to altitude and snow. It often causes terrible problems to cross the pass if it is covered by heavy snow. After four hours of climbing to the pass marked by the chortens and prayer flags, we will be rewarded with stunning views from the top of the pass. Another four hours of walking will take us to the holy town of Muktinath.


Muktinath means place of nirvana and is home to the Muktinath Temple as well as several monasteries. It is said that all sorrows we feel are relieved when visiting the Temple. It is a sacred pilgrimage site for both Hindus and Buddhists. The prime pilgrimage month is September.


The Temple is dedicated to Lord Vishnu and has 108 waterspouts around it. Another attraction nearby is the Jwala Mai Temple which has a gorgeous natural spring and an eternal flame fueled by natural gas.


Overnight at a guesthouse. Breakfast, lunch and dinner included.

So now, we are on the other side of the Thorong La Pass. Most of the land we see will be dry and looks somewhat like the desert. We will continue our trek walking by the bank of Kali Gandaki River.


Frequently, we will descend with a closer view of stupas and old traditional houses, and the civilization of Mustang. Jomsom is a large town with many facilities. It is also the headquarter and official town for the whole Mustang district where all the district government offices are present.


Overnight at a guesthouse. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner included.

In the Jomsom to Tatopani segment, the trekking trail and the road are the same and it is busier with vehicles than any other part of the Annapurna Circuit. To make your experience better, we have kept a drive from Jomsom to Tatopani which will take about 5 hours.


We will use a local shared 4WD vehicle to descend through the Kali Gandaki River Valley. The vehicle will be shared among our own group or with travelers from other companies. But, if our group size is bigger, for example, 4 and above clients, we will arrange a private transfer. On the way, we will encounter the world’s deepest gorge, Kopchepani. Tatopani is famous for its hot springs. This is the best place to relax our body after a long trek. We will spend another day relaxing at this spot.


Overnight at a guesthouse. Breakfast, lunch and dinner included.

Take a shower, dip into the natural hot springs, and enjoy drinks and local food.


Overnight at a guesthouse. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner included.

Today is another big day. It will take about 7 hours to walk from Tatopani to Ghorepani. We climb about 1,620 meters up. From Ghorepani, the unmatched beauty of Annapurna South, Himchuli, and Tukuche Himal is truly exceptional. We will pass a couple of Magar and Gurung villages on the trail.


Overnight at a guesthouse. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner included.

Very early in the morning, we start an hour hiking to Poon Hill at an elevation of 3,210 m – a brilliant spectacle. This vantage point provides unobstructed views of the early morning sunrise over the high Himalayas, weather permitting. There we spend about an hour.

We return to Ghorepani where we take a hot breakfast at the hotel. We trek down towards Tikhedunga, walking down along the ridges and through rhododendron forests before reaching Tikhedhunga.


Upon reaching Tikhedhunga, we will take a short break and then take a drive to Nayapul in a local shared 4WD or bus. The drive will take about 1.5 hours on a dirt road. At Nayapul, we will stop for a tea break and change our vehicle.


From here onward until Pokhara, the drive, which takes about 1 hour on concrete paved road, will be in a private tourist vehicle. Your guide will travel together with you and make all the arrangements for the transfers.


Overnight at a guesthouse. Breakfast, lunch and dinner included.

We will be driving back to Kathmandu in the morning.


In the evening, we host a farewell dinner in a fine restaurant. (Your guide(s) and office staff will accompany you).
