Annapurna Circuit Trek Trip Information

Trekking Routes For Annapurna Trek

Annapurna Circuit Trek starts with a drive to Besisahar from Kathmandu Valley. Our drive goes for about 5 to 6 hours. After, we will follow the trail of the Marsyangdi River. The trial goes through Besisahar, Syange, Chamje, Dharapani, Chame, Pisang, Manang, and the beautiful trekking route. Our trekking route will end at Jomsom. This trekking route is a moderate tea-house stay, and it is a classic trekking route as well.

During our trek, we can learn about the lifestyle, culture, and traditions of the Gurung, Thakalis, Tibetan, and Magar community people. Nepal Base Camp Treks (Pvt. Ltd.) is always on your front foot to help by making your trek in this place throughout the year trekking in the Himalayas. We will make your trekking schedule according to your holiday. We will make sure you provide a good trekking guide.

Best Time To Trek Annapurna Circuit

The best time to trek the Annapurna Circuit is spring and autumn. Spring runs from March to May, offering clear skies, blooming flowers, and pleasant temperatures. Autumn, from September to November, has stable weather, clear views of the mountains, and fewer chances of rain.

Avoid the trek during the monsoon trekking season (June to August) and winter (December to February). Monsoons bring heavy rain and slippery trails, while winter can be frigid with snow-covered paths. Trekking during the spring and autumn will give you the best experience with beautiful scenery and good weather conditions.

Permits To Hike The Annapurna Circuit Trek

Annapurna Conservation Area Permit (ACAP)

You need an Annapurna Conservation Area Permit (ACAP) to trek the Annapurna Circuit. This permit helps protect the environment and supports conservation efforts in the area. You can get the ACAP at the Nepal Tourism Board office in Kathmandu or Pokhara. Bring your passport and some passport-sized photos for the application. The ACAP costs around $30. It is essential to carry this permit at all times during your trek. There are several checkpoints along the route where officials will check your permit.

Trekkers Information Management System (TIMS) Card

You also need a Trekkers’ Information Management System (TIMS) card for the Annapurna Circuit trek. The TIMS card helps track your safety. You can get the TIMS card at the Nepal Tourism Board office in Kathmandu, Pokhara, or through a registered trekking agency. The TIMS card costs around $10 to  $20, depending on whether you are trekking independently or with a guide. Like the ACAP, you must always carry the TIMS card with you. Officials will check it at various points along the trek.

How Hard Is Annapurna Circuit Trek in Annapurna Region?

Although the Annapurna Circuit Trek is moderately complex, it is much harder than the Annapurna Base Camp Trek. Several factors increase the difficulty level of the trek. Some of the team are below-mentioned:

Trekking Distance and Duration

The trek covers a distance of about 160-230 kilometers (100-145 miles), depending on your specific route. It usually takes 15 to 20 days to complete. The long distance and the daily walking time of 5 to 7 hours can be tiring.

High Altitude and Elevation Gain

The trek reaches a high point at Thorong La Pass, 5,416 meters. Ascending to the highest altitude can create a problem of altitude sickness. You may encounter symptoms such as shortness of breath, headaches, nausea, and fatigue.

Terrain and Trail Conditions

The terrain varies from easy walking paths to steep, rocky trails. Some parts of the trek also include slippery trails, especially if it rains. Also, crossing rivers and narrow paths can be a hassle for you. Thus, you need to have proper balancing skills.

Weather Conditions

The weather in the Himalayas is unpredictable. It keeps on changing. During your trekking trial, you can experience ward days, cold nights, rain, and snow. So, it is always advisable to check the weather and pack accordingly. It ensures safety and comfort.

Acclimatization

Acclimatization is the process of your body adjusting to higher altitudes where there is less oxygen. It is necessary because as you climb higher, the air gets thinner, making it harder to breathe. Without proper acclimatization, you can get altitude sickness, which can cause headaches, nausea, dizziness, and even be life-threatening.

How to Acclimatize

  • Ascend gradually and avoid rushing. Don’t gain more than 300-500 meters (1,000-1,600 feet) in altitude per day.
  • Have rest days to allow your body to adjust. For example, spend an extra night at the same altitude every few days.
  • Drink plenty of water to help your body adjust. Aim for about 3-4 liters a day.
  • Eat a balanced diet with plenty of carbohydrates to give your body energy.
  • These can dehydrate you and make it harder for your body to acclimatize.
  • If you feel symptoms of altitude sickness, don’t go higher until you feel better. Descend if symptoms worsen.

Is the Annapurna Circuit Trek Tour Right for You?

The Annapurna Circuit Trek Tour is suitable for active travellers who enjoy walking, outdoor adventures, and cultural exploration. While previous trekking experience can be beneficial, many first-time trekkers successfully complete the journey with proper preparation and guidance.

This trek is ideal for travellers looking to experience the Himalayas beyond the popular viewpoints. The route offers a balance of physical challenge, cultural immersion, and breathtaking mountain scenery, making it a favourite choice among international trekkers.

A reasonable level of fitness, preparation for high-altitude conditions, and a positive mindset will help ensure an enjoyable and rewarding trekking experience on the Annapurna Circuit Trek.

Travel Insurance

Travel insurance typically includes benefits such as medical expenses for illness or injury, emergency evacuation, trip cancellation or interruption, lost or stolen belongings, and sometimes even coverage for adventure activities like trekking or skiing. It gives you peace of mind knowing that if something goes wrong, you have support and assistance to handle the situation without bearing all the costs yourself.

When you buy travel insurance, make sure to read all the details. Check what it covers and what it doesn’t, like certain health conditions or activities. Compare different plans to find one that fits your trip and budget. Having the right travel insurance means you’re protected if anything unexpected happens while you’re away from home.

If any one planing to trek Annapurna Base Camp with Suraj and his uncle company “Nepal Base Camp Treks” highly recommended.
thank you for your warm hospitality and see you in Langtang trek …

The Happiest Moment in Nepal

We deeply appreciate Sappa & our guide Suraj’s arrangement for our trip to Poon Hill & ABC trekking package. The view is stunning and the whole walking trek is pleasant with diverse nature seeing. The highest compliment I would like to give nepalbasecamptreks is their flexibility in arranging our itinerary. Making us feeling privilege while having this private trip, of course with reasonable price! Thanks to our porter Patan that work in Malaysia before and helping us all the time. Thanks Sappa, Suraj & Patan!?

Unforgettable Nepal Trekking: Exceptional Service and Hospitality

Im Oktober 2018 habe ich mit einer Freundin Nepal besucht. Über Sappa haben wir ein unvergessliches 6-tägiges Trekking über Gorephani in der Annapurna-Region gebucht. Die Trekking-Tour und Etappen wurden nach unseren Wünschen zusammengestellt sowie alle Angelegenheiten die Registrierung in der Annapurna-Region und den Transfer vom Hotel in Pokhara betreffend von Sappa und seinem Team erledigt. Auf der Trekking-Tour begleitete uns ein hochprofessionelles und zuvorkommendes Team (Bergführer Shyam und Träger Aita). Shyam informierte uns immer genau über den Verlauf der Trekkingetappen sowie die Region, Berg- / Pflanzenwelt und Dorfbewohner etc.. Die Lodges/Zimmer und Verpflegung entsprachen, besonders im Vergleich zu Gruppenreisen von deutschen Anbietern einem gehobenen Standard. Wir hatten in den Teahouses z.B. fast immer ein eigenes Bad mit Dusche und WC und Granatapfel zum Nachtisch J. Abschließend wurden wir zu einem traditionellen Dal Bhat Essen und einem farewell dinner eingeladen. Neben der beeindruckenden Trekking-tour organisierte uns Sappa einen Guide für eine Tageswanderung von Nargakot bis Changu Narayan. Für die Besichtigung des Kathmanduvalleys (Bhaktapur, Dhulikel, Panauti, Patan, Nargakot (Sunrise)) stand uns ein Fahrer zur Verfügung, der uns zuverlässig über Stock und Stein zu allen gewünschten Dörfern und Zielen fuhr. Dieser brachte uns letztendlich noch mit Zwischenstopps in Mankamana, Gorkha und 1 Übernachtung im bezaubernden Bergdörfchen Bandipur bis nach Pokhara. Auch unseren unvergesslichen und unbedingt empfehlenswerten Mount – Everest – Rundflug mit Transfer vom Hotel haben wir über Sappa gebucht. Ich bin sehr dankbar für die tolle Organisation und die Freundlichkeit von Sappa und seinem Team und kann diese ohne Einschränkungen wärmstens weiterempfehlen. Warm wishes from cold Germany.

On the trekking tour we were accompanied by a highly professional and courteous team (mountain guide Shyam and porters Aita). Shyam always informed us exactly about the course of the trekking stages as well as the region, mountains / vegetation and villagers etc. The lodges / rooms and catering corresponded to a high standard, especially in comparison to group travel from German providers. We had tea in the teahouses, for example. almost always a private bathroom with shower and toilet and pomegranate for dessert J. Finally, we were invited to a traditional Dal Bhat food and a farewell dinner. In addition to the impressive trekking tour, Sappa organized a guide for a day hike from Nargakot to Changu Narayan. For the visit of the Kathmanduvalleys (Bhaktapur, Dhulikel, Panauti, Patan, Nargakot (Sunrise)) a driver was available, who reliably drove us over hill and dale to all desired villages and destinations. This brought us finally with stops in Mankamana, Gorkha and 1 night in the charming mountain village Bandipur to Pokhara. We also booked our unforgettable and absolutely recommendable Mount Everest sightseeing flight with transfer from the hotel via Sappa. I am very grateful for the great organization and the friendliness of Sappa and his team and can warmly recommend them without any restrictions. Warm wishes from cold Germany.

Fabulous Annapurna Base Camp Trek with Nepal Base Camp Treks

After reading so many online reviews on different trekking companies.We contacted Sappa Lama (Manging Director) for inquiring about a trekking the Annapurna Base Camp. This was our second visit to Nepal. We are age of 56 and 58 from Germany and without the help of guide and porter impossible to complete this adventure trip.My First Trek to Nepal was in April, 2002 with a different agency at Thamel. After receiving several queries and descriptions of about the trek we focused on Nepal Base Camp Treks. I had done a research on where to stay in Kathmandu and when I asked Sappa Lama where he recommended he suggested Hotel Taleju Boutique. The place was nice, i was interested in. His airport representative met us at the arrival gate of airport with our name list and private vehicle to transfer us the hotel. Sappa and porter Suraj were great to travel with. They took care of all the tedious details so that we could enjoy holiday in Nepal. It was a fabulous journey in my life and we are planning to come back next year to trek with Sappa.

Unforgettable Annapurna Circuit Trek with Nepal Base Camp Treks

Annapurna Trekking.I and my wife Maria took 18days Annapurna Circuit Thorong la (5416meter high) pass start from Jagat around 11 hours bus and jeep drive from Kathmandu.We check the online price on several agencies and found Nepal Base Camp Treks,Sappa Lama and his team Sherpa Sujan found very helpful to make arrangement in this amazing country. We meet Sappa first time in arrival gate of Kathmandu airport with our name card and transfer to hotel International Guest House for overnight .sometime very hard to trust people on online booking but we decided to take risk and thank god we found the right person and right company to trek with us. Every day we enjoy our walk from Jagat to Jomson,Sappa describe us everything we wank to know about the Nepalese culture history and political situation and trying our best stay during along the trek.check our physical condition and ask every day was excellent and knowledgeable guidance. There is no words to recommend Sappa and Sujan,they are so helpful to make us happy with carrying on his red bag an apple,Mangos,in mountian to feed us.Thank you Sappa and Sujan for carrying Mango in mountain which is unforgettable memory in your country.I definately back to you for Everest Base Camp on 2019 with Maria and some other family too.next time may be around 4 member in the group Cheers from Germany David (Dev in Nepali)

Unforgettable ABC Trek with Nepal Base Camp Treks

We have done wonderful trekking to ABC last April 2016 with Sappa’s team. We were a team of four from Brazil. Besides the fantastic scenery and beautiful views, we could experience the Nepali hospitality, especially from Sappa and Anjan, who took good care of us all from the time we arrived in Katmandu airport till we left. Everything went fine, the planning worked very well. It was really one of the best experiences in my life. We highly recommend this trip to everyone with Sappa (Nepal Base Camp Treks)!! Unforgettable!! Thank you!!

Perfect Annapurna Adventure with Sappa

Last year it was my first trip to Asia. I had always dreamt about hiking in Himalayas. I was a bit worried as I turned fifty and had no experience with high altitudes. Our trip took over three weeks and was just perfect. Sappa looked after us as a caring “mama”, made sure everybody was fine and enjoying themselves. The mountains where breathtaking, people extremely nice and we became real friends with Sappa and the porters. What a vacation! Annapurna base camp hike was fantastic, I plan to come back and take more friends, so they can share this wonderful

Sappa: The Ultimate Guide in Nepal

Sappa é o cara. Visitei o Nepal em duas ocasiões. Na primeira ele foi meu guia no circuito Annapurna, onde caminhamos por 21 dias. Na segunda ele nos guiou nos treks Langtang, Gosainkunda e Helambu por 17 dias. Alem disso, ele foi nosso guia no trek Cheppang Hills. Como se não bastasse, fizemos também o clássico Base Camp Everest partindo de Jiri e passando por Renjo La e Cho La, em 24 dias com o seu irmão Lako. O Nepal é um pais maravilhoso e a companhia de um guia como Sappa fez toda a diferença, pois ele nos explicou muito sobre a cultura local, religião, situação política/conflitos no pais e como funciona a sociedade no Nepal em geral. Ele fala muito bem inglês, é muito bem humorado e as risadas estão garantidas. Pra resumir, você começa a trilha com um guia e termina com um amigo. Recomendo-o sem hesitar. Se tiver perguntas pode me escrever.

Exceptional Family Treks with Sappa and Nepal Base Camp Treks

In October 2014, 2015 I completed another wonderful family trek in Nepal to Langtang and Gosainkund lakes thanks to Sappa and his company “Nepal Base Camp Treks”. I first met Sappa in 2008 on a family Gokyo Lakes Trek and EBC Trek. At that time, I was greatly impressed by the highly professional approach he took to mountain guiding. I’m very happy to report that in 2014 nothing has changed. Sappa continues to maintain an exceptionally high standard of service and this together with his warm, generous and engaging personality ensured everyone in our party had an amazing time during their visit to Nepal. We were treated to fantastic traditional Nepalese food and cultural performances at welcoming and farewell dinners in Kathmandu; expertly and safely guided over 14 days of trekking through an incredibly beautiful landscape; and provided with detailed and knowledgeable commentary during our tours of all the main sites around Kathmandu, Bhaktapur and Patan. I’m very happy to report that the organisation of our transport, sightseeing, accommodation and trekking arrangements was first rate and that over three weeks everything ran very smoothly indeed. Overall, Sappa‘s vast guiding experience and mountain knowledge ensured that our itinerary was structured in such a way that it provided us with a good deal of flexibility and ample time to absorb the magnificent mountain views while trekking, as well as not being rushed on our tours of Kathmandu and surrounds. On this trip, a few in our party were first time trekkers. What a fantastic introduction to trekking in the Nepal Himalaya they received thanks to the great care and attention to every little detail provided by Sappa and his fabulous support crew Manoj, Shankar and Suraj. Thank you Sappa,for also keeping up the tradition of supplying us with bananas and chocolate bars. I must also mention that the pomegranate seeds the crew provided to us on our way to Langtang was an unexpected but greatly appreciated treat. Importantly, from a safety aspect, we were more than pleased to find that Nepal Base Camp Treks used modern four wheel drive vehicles to take us to the start of our trek in Syabrubesi and also for the return journey from Dhunche. We were also very impressed to observe that Sappa and his company take very good care of their support crews. If you are planning to visit Nepal, I have no hesitation in recommending Sappa and his company “Nepal Base Camp Treks” for trouble free trekking and touring. You will not be disappointed. I can’t wait for my next trek with Sappa, which will be around Manaslu trek.
