Why Visit Annapurna Circuit
The Annapurna Circuit circumnavigates the entire Annapurna massif over 15–21 days, crossing the Thorong La pass at 5,416m. Diverse ecology ranges from subtropical forests to Tibetan-style high-altitude desert. The trail passes through Manang, the ancient walled city of Jomsom, and the sacred Muktinath temple — widely considered the world's greatest long-distance trek.
Best Time to Visit
The best time to trek the Annapurna Circuit is March–May or October–November.
Difficulty & What to Expect
This is a Challenging trek. Many trekkers now go counter-clockwise, ending at Nayapul — allowing acclimatisation to build gradually to the Thorong La pass.
Who It's Best For
The Annapurna Circuit suits long-distance trekkers, culture explorers, and solo adventurers.
