Annapurna Circuit Trek, Fixed Departure Date for 2024/2025

The complete trek requires a period of 3 weeks and it begins from Besishahar, while goes across the Marshyangdi River to give astonishing views of the Mount Manaslu and Mount Himal Chuli in the eastern region.

On the other side, you will enjoy equally breathtaking scenery while you go ahead to the main mountain ranges of the entire Himalayas over a dry and high Tibetan Plateau.
Thorung La Pass constitutes the highest point associated with the entire Annapurna Circuit Trek and it is at the height of 5416meters. Based on difficulties associated with crossing this mountain pass, we usually walk the circuit as per counter clockwise direction. This is because; traveling in clockwise direction from west to reach east is very much hectic for many trekkers to manage in a single day.
Further, as our team descends towards the western region at Muktinath by starting from Manang, we continue with our trek across the barren lands of Tibet, including the Kali Gandaki village, where you will find the worldwide deepest gorge passing in between the giant Mount Dhaulagiri and Mount Annapurna. Once you cross Thorung La Pass by starting from Manang and reach to Muktinath, you will follow the same schedule for last seven days of your circuit trek, as you have in Jomson Trek via Pokhara but in the reverse order.
