Trip Overview
Deluxe Annapurna Circuit trek-17 days >>The most popular trekking in the Annapurna region of Nepal
What is the Deluxe Annapurna Circuit Trek and what makes it Deluxe?
Since we accomodate you at the best selected lodges with attached bathrooms, private transportation throughout the trip, and the highest quality meals during the entire journey of the Annapurna circuit trek, this is so-called-deluxe trek
Voted as the best long-distance (131km) trek in the world, the Deluxe Annapurna Circuit trek is one of the most popular treks within the mountain ranges of central Nepal. Besisahar (760m) is the trekking starting point before the motor road connects Manang Valley (3500m). From Kathmandu, we drive two whole days to Chame (2700m), and from there we start slowly trekking to Manang, via lower and upper Pisang, where we spend two nights for acclimatization. Leaving the manang, we trek through Thongphedi and Yak kharka. The highest point of this trek is Throng la pass (5416m), and the trek to the Lower Mustang region covers Muktinath Temple, a holy temple of Lord Vishnu, sacred to Buddhists and Hindus alike.
This trek continues following the motor road to Tatopani (hot spring in Nepali), after Muktinath, where you will enjoy a natural hot spring and attempt the final destination of the trek at Ghorepani Poonhill, before the trek finishes at Ghandruk, one of the closest hilly villages to Pokhara. The best part of this deluxe trek is that you start the trek from one place and end the trek in another place, so that you won’t follow the same trail the whole time.Because the Deluxe Annapurna Circuit trek is linked by motor roads from various points, we will use transportation to drive at the start, the middle, and the end of the trek. In order to make this trek as comfortable as possible, we have selected highly recommended deluxe lodges during the trek to make this trek deluxe.
