Annapurna Circuit Trek - 16 Days

After a day exploring Kathmandu, drive west through forest and farmland to Tal for the start of the trek. The trail and recently built dirt roads follow an anti-clockwise route behind the 50km Annapurna Himal. The reason for the anticlockwise route is the gradual altitude gain, which helps with acclimatization and makes crossing the Thorong La easier and safer. Lowland Hindu communities gradually give way to Tibetan groups and the architecture changes as the trail rises. The high peaks to the south capture rainfall leaving a rain shadow behind the range which gets gradually drier as you trek westwards.
