Trek to the Annapurna Circuit<\/h2><\/div>
<\/div>

The Annapurna Circuit is one of the great treks of the Himalaya, and our 22-day itinerary is designed to experience it fully, not just rush toward Thorong La. From the alpine side of Annapurna, the route climbs gradually toward Manang, passing through the villages of Ghyaru and Ngawal, before leaving the main trail for a few days to reach Tilicho Lake, at 4,919 meters, the highest lake in the world. In Manang, we don’t spend our acclimatization day simply following the busy hike to Ice Lake. Instead, we climb up to Praken Gompa, a small Buddhist hermitage at nearly 4,000 meters, perched on the mountainside above the village. For decades, it has been a tradition here to bless travelers before they cross the Thorong La: our group also receives this blessing as a good omen for the rest of the trek. It’s one of those simple, authentic moments that, for us, capture the true meaning of traveling in the Himalaya, beyond the mountains and the views. After acclimatizing in Manang, the journey continues to the Thorong La Pass, at 5,416 meters, before descending to Muktinath and into the desert landscape of Mustang. But for us, the Annapurna Circuit doesn’t end in Jomsom: we continue along the Kali Gandaki valley toward Tatopani and Poon Hill, finally reaching the southern side of Annapurna and the views of Mardi Himal, an area visited by far fewer organized Western groups and frequented mainly by Nepali hikers coming up from Pokhara. On our Annapurna Circuit, Italian-speaking support is guaranteed: the group is led by Bibi, Nepalese founding partner of Himalaya Exped and certified local guide, who knows this route inside out. We personally arrange transfers, lodges, permits and porters, from your arrival in Kathmandu through your return after the trek. Only have two weeks? <\/strong>You can experience the heart of the Annapurna Circuit in 15 days, following the same route as far as Jomsom through Manang, Tilicho Lake, the Thorong La Pass and Mustang. Discover the Annapurna Circuit in two weeks \u2192<\/a><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n
