Trip Overview
Annapurna Circuit Trek is one of the most widely popular hiking routes in the world. This trail is in the western Himalayan zone of Nepal. Annapurna Circuit Trek is also famous by the name of Annapurna Round Trekking because it circles Mount Annapurna Massif. In the top ten highest mountains on the earth, Annapurna is listed as the tenth tallest mountain. Its height is 8091 meters/ 26545 feet from sea level.
Annapurna Circuit Trail opened for foreigners only in 1977 AD. In terms of scenery, in this trial, you can experience a diversified landscape and mountain views. The trail begins from an elevation of less than 1000 meters and goes up to the optimum height of 5,416 m. The highest point of the Annapurna Circuit is the Thorong La. Thorong La is also considered the longest mountain pass in the world. It’s a dream of all trekkers who go for this route is reach the top of the pass and enjoy the surrounding breathtaking panorama.
Annapurna Circuit is a well-developed hiking trail. It is wider, clearer, and safer. During this trekking, you will pass the beautiful mountain villages inhabited by various indigenous groups and also get the opportunity to explore the arid landscape exactly similar to the Tibetan Plateau.
Another charm of this trek is Muktinath Temple. After the cross of the Thorang La pass, you will descend to this sacred temple of all Hindus as well as Buddhists. It is believed that the holy bath in the 108 taps washes all your sins and then you ultimately lead to salvation.
Likewise, the outstanding Kaligandaki River valley, warm hospitality of local people, hot springs, rhododendron forests, and sunrise view from Poon Hill add extra enjoyment to the trekkers.

Trip Reviews
I finished Annapurna circuit trek including Poon Hill last November 2017. It was the awesome trekking that I had ever done in my life in terms of perfect Himalayan views, beautiful villages, nice local people and several sceneries. My trek was organized by Excellent Himalaya Trek and Expedition. Before the start of the trek, Mr. Suman, the team leader of this company, briefed me overall about this trip. He introduced my guide Lhakpa and porter Hari. With these two people, I started my trek from Besisahar. I took our time, spending two days in Manang for acclimatization purpose. But it was not a free day. My guide took me to visit glacier and lake. After Manang, we moved up to cross Thorung La Pass. It was my dream to cross this world’s longest pass and I achieved it with my good guide and porter. After Thorung La via Muktinath, Tatopani I also trekked to Poonhill. This is also very nice place. To my opinion everybody who go for Annapurna Circuit they also should include Poonhill for the more exciting experience. Finally, I am very much thankful to the whole team of Excellent Himalaya for organizing me this best trekking. See you guys again for next great trekking.
