The Annapurna circuit is the most popular trekking destination in Nepal.

At ABC you can see the mountains of Tharpu Chuli (5663m), Singu Chuli (6501m), Hiunchuli (6441m) and South Annapurna (7219m).

The Manang region is home to the Gurung and Thakali people whose Buddhist faith is evidenced by their unique stone houses, monasteries (Gompas), Mani stones (stones inscribed in Sanskrit mantras), chortens (lama shrines/monuments), colorful dress and the ever-present mult -colored Tibetan prayer flags fluttering in the wind. 

The trail will take you to Poon Hill (3210m), a well known vantage point from where you have some of the finest mountain views in Nepal. In the early morning from Poon Hill you can watch the sunrise and the changing colors as the pure morning light reflects off the snow clad peaks. You will follow trails through lush green forests, across rivers on suspension bridges, through terraced farmland, and observe yak grazing on alpine pastures, cross moraines and glaciers. You can also bathe in the therapeutic hot springs at Jhinu Danda and Tatopani that will relax the muscles. We will first arrive at Machapuchare Base Camp before heading on to Annapurna Base Camp (4130m), the highest point on the trek.

All trekking permits, meals and accommodation on the trek will be taken care of by Sherpa Expedition Teams. We have an excellent reputation in the trekking and climbing.
