The Annapurna Circuit in Nepal is an amazingly varied trekking route, offering a spectacular array of magnificent mountain scenery and ancient settlements. It truly is, one of the ‘Greatest Treks in the World’. We start out in the lush, green Nepalese foothills and gradually ascend to cross 5000m passes, with awesome views of three of the world’s highest mountains. The diversity of Hindu and Buddhist villages and ancient sacred sites reflect the ever changing physical landscapes. Complementing the justifiably popular Annapurna Circuit trails are the seldom visited Valleys of Nar and Phu. Only recently opened to foreigners these rock gorges and snow covered mountain passes are home to the Tibetan speaking peoples who have lived for centuries in the Mythical stone built villages of Nar and Phu, We have the opportunity to experience the unique feeling of being some of the first trekkers to explore these ancient trails.
After crossing the classic Himalayan pass, the Kang La (5306m), we rejoin the main Annapurna Circuit at Braga. Depending on the prevailing weather and snow conditions we may take the exposed rocky trails, to Tilicho Lake and cross the challenging Mesokanta La (5400m) before descending to the mountain airstrip at Jomsom. Wilderness Trekking owner, Mick Bromley declares this the finest Himalayan trek he has ever undertaken.
