A challenging trek covering the highlights of the Annapurna Circuit
Following the classic Annapurna Circuit, this trekking adventure covers the highlights of the unspoilt western trail: from traditional Gurung villages to hilltop monasteries and high passes. We climb above the tree-line to cross the Thorong La Pass (5416m), marvel at the impressive views over the Kali Gandaki Valley, relax in the lakeside town of Pokhara and explore the old bazaars of Kathmandu.
