Annapurna Circuit Trek

Annapurna circuit Trek 14 days itinerary is considered as adventure difficult trek in Annapurna trek due to Thorangla(5416m) to do Around Annapurna trek. The world deepest gorge at Kaligandaki Valley and World widest Pass Thorangla is the main reason for this trek to become famous trekking destination at Nepal. This trek passes many mountain villages at Marsyandi valley as well as Kaligandaki valley. Stunning waterfall, Diversified climate zone, Hot Springs, Frozen Lakes, Alpine Valley and centuries-old Monasteries are the key features of this trek. Dharapani, Timang, Chame, Manang, Muktinath, and Jomsom is main highlighted spot in this trek.

Manang is the beautiful place to see Annapurna Massif. On the way, we will get the opportunity to see many eye-catching Waterfall and diversified landscape. People also have known this trek as the worlds best long distance trek. Normally all trekkers hike this route anti-clockwise direction which makes altitude gain is slower and easy pass to Thorangla.

Road construction on this trail made this trek shorter comparing before road on the trail. Before the road construction on the Annapurna Circuit, it takes about 21 days to the finished whole path about 230km. But nowadays we can do finished this trek 6 to 10 days depending on the fitness of trekkers and altitude experience. Because of road construction, mountain biking on this trail is also becoming day by day popular.
I prefer to do Annapurna Circuit Trek in 14 days itinerary which considers acclimatization. It’s distance about 160km which is starts from Syange and ends at Jomsom. If we drive Kathmandu to Besi Sahar by driving a local bus it takes around 6-7 hours roughly. On the way, we will have breakfast and lunch. From Besi Sahar, there will be two option to reach Syange. They are either we have to reserve a Jeep or we have to go by sharing basis. Syange is beautiful where a beautiful waterfall is located. That’s the main reason we have to stay overnight there. At the beginning of the trek, we will follow the Marsyandi river after crossing Thorangla Kaligandaki river. The way on this trail is easy because of flatter up and few stone steps.
Mountain view amorng the trail are Annapurna Massif (I-IV),Mount Manaslu,Lamjung Himal,Gangapurna,Tilicho Peak,Nilgiri,Tukuche Peak,Paungda Danda and Pisang Peak .
