River valley at apc trek — *At this point of long river valley – 2 rivers meets. One coming from Thorng phedi & another coming from gorge between mesokanta pass & Thorong la pass side*

Annapurna circuit trek starts with views of the beautiful river valley with unbelievable rural settlement. This trail of APC alternates between the river and the road, which makes the trekking both easy as well as interesting. If it’s your second time trekking in APC trail – you will have lots of opportunities to wonder and amaze at what you see and would have seen in your previous trek.

To the end of this versatile trek, our trekking walks through the world’s deepest gorge Kali Gandaki with Annapurna I rising up to 8091 m in the East and Dhaulagiri 8167 m in the West! We savor the fabulous mountain views from Poonhill and discover the diverse Annapurna region. Whereas Mount Manaslu 8156 meters above the sea level is visible during the beginning of the trek and the range of Annapurna looks unreal; your photos are going to look like a painting from a fine artist. At the beginning of our Annapurna circuit trek we meet Manaslu circuit trekking trail.

Furthermore, Annapurna Circuit Trek also takes us to Manang, Jomsom and the Muktinath region, which again gets us acquainted with the diverse Nepalese landscape and culture. Both the culture & landscape of Manang village and Mustang region is an interesting part of this trekking. For your information – Upper mustang trek is a restricted and loved monsoon trekking destination in Nepal.

Manang at the altitude of 3,519 meters is a major town in the Manang District of Nepal. It is situated in the broad valley of the Marshyangdi River, North of the Annapurna mountain range. The river flows from the East to the West, and the 5,416-meters high Thorong La pass leads to Muktinath Hindu temple in the pristine landscape of God mountain. To the North there is the Chulu East peak of 6,584 m. Most groups trekking around the Annapurna range will take resting days in Manang to acclimatize to the high altitude (basically the concept is to sleep low and trek high), before taking on Thorong La pass.

How difficult is Annapurna Circuit Trek?

Annapurna Circuit Trek is regarded as one of the longest treks to do in Nepal. Annapurna Circuit Trek offers the hikers beautiful view of the snow capped mountains along it offers the flora and fauna, authentic villages and the culture of the local people on the trail. Talking about the difficulty, Annapurna Circuit Trek falls under the moderate trek to Nepal. You can find the Annapurna Circuit Trek easily in autumn and spring season in comparison to monsoon and winter season.

Muktinath is a sacred place for both Hindus and Buddhist located in the Muktinath Valley at an altitude of 3,710 meters, at the foot of the Thorong La mountain pass. Within Hinduism, it is called Mukti Kshetra, which literally means the “place of liberation”.

We continue our trek to the East to Poonhill which is one of the world’s best view points and from where we can see the 360°view of Himalayas (including Annapurna range and Dhaulagiri range).

*Prayers flags right above Muktinath Temple – we walk along these flags while doing Annapurna circuit*
