Gangapurna

Annapurna Circuit Trek Route

You can trek around the Annapurna Circuit from March to early May, and September to early December. We generally have groups of 4 – 6 people, and you will be led by Sherpa guides who have worked for us, for many years. The groups meet up in Kathmandu where we have a guesthouse if you wish to use it, or we can book one of the many hotels in the capital. Kathmandu is at an altitude of 1400m. The following day is a rest and briefing day, then on day 3 we travel by road to Bulbule followed by a 2hr walk to Ngadi which is at 900m. Day 4 is the start of our main trek and we then have a gradual height gain each day followed by a few days walking high and sleeping low before going over the 5412m Thorung La pass. After the pass we rapidly drop altitude to sub 2000m. Our circuit will bring us to Pokhara at the end of the trek and after a rest day there, we fly back to Kathmandu. The main itinerary ends on arrival back in Kathmandu and on the vast majority of occasions we are back in Kathmandu on day 20 with no problems. However, there are sometimes delays with the internal flights from Pokhara to Kathmandu. Therefore we recommend that you do not book international flights home that leave any earlier than the evening of day 21. This allows the possibility of making the internal flight (or drive if required) back to Kathmandu on day 21 if necessary. You can also arrange to stay an extra night in Kathmandu on the night of day 21 and fly out the following day. We can help you to book the extra night’s accommodation if needed. Please note: Due to the nature of trekking in the mountains and adventure travel, the itineraries here may need to be adapted on the ground to suit prevailing conditions of the mountains, weather and the group.
