About this tour
One of Nepal's bucket-list treks, our 12-day route takes us on a full circuit of the Annapurna range. Trek through rhododendron forests, mountain foothills, across barren, rocky landscapes and snow-covered passes. At the end of the day, rest up and get to know the local families who run our tea house lodge accommodation. Thorong La - Cross this challenging high pass, 5,416 metres/17,769 feet, offering stunning views across the Himalayas. Poon Hill - Climb to the top of Poon Hill and watch the sunrise over the Annapurnas and Dhaulagiri. Pokhara - Take a well-earned rest by the lakeside and enjoy a cake at one of the town's many bakeries.
