Trekking in Nepal is one of the most wonderful activities. The Annapurna circuit is amazing because you get to see all types of climate and vegetation and interact with several sub cultures. The guide was always explaining details about the culture, the people and the nature we were seeing. He was kind and always cheerful. He took good care of us. The food in the tea houses is not very creative but it is good and the guide would always tell us which dish is better in which place. The views are breathtaking and it is surprising how the guide could identify all the peaks.

Me and my four other friends went to Annapurna Circuit Trek during March 2022. We really had a great time and experience. The team at World Travel Experiences worked very professionally, itinerary design and content were perfect to match the available time and an options for side trip. We will definately travel with WTX whenever we plan a visit to Nepal.

I highly recommend this company as we did the Annapurna Circuit Trek. We were taken care of from start to finish. Each and every question were quickly answered, we were all picked up and dropped to the airport. The trek itself was wonderful. I'm usually responsible for all aspects of our family trip. The planning, meals, rest stops were made by Peregrine Treks and were all of the best quality.

Best time to visit Mount Annapurna
- Winter 2025 / 2026
The winter trails through Annapurna offer something special - you'll find fewer people and incredibly clear views of the mountains. The Ghorepani Poon Hill circuit really comes into its own this season, with quiet paths winding through oak and rhododendron forests. That crisp morning air makes sunrise at Poon Hill particularly memorable. For the Annapurna Circuit, we build in extra days for proper altitude adjustment, and our guides keep close watch on weather patterns to adjust routes when needed. Small groups heading to Base Camp via Poon Hill get to mix steady hiking with stops in Gurung villages, and we maintain safety with emergency oxygen for the high sections. The tea houses are nicely quiet in winter, though you'll want to prepare for some frozen facilities around Thorong La Pass.

- Spring 2026
Spring transforms the Annapurna region with rhododendrons bursting into bloom and perfect hiking conditions. Our travelers really enjoy the Circuit trek now - crossing suspension bridges over the swelling rivers and watching local farmers start working their terraced fields. The Base Camp routes are at their best, following well-kept trails from lush valleys right up to the glacial areas. Many guests choose tours with rest days in Manang, where you can join meditation sessions at Buddhist temples and explore old monasteries. The Sanctuary trek works particularly well in spring, mixing challenging hiking with stops at natural hot springs, village visits and time in traditional Magar communities.

- Summer 2026
The summer monsoon brings out a different Annapurna, with green hillsides and dramatic cloud patterns. Our guides have refined several routes that work well in these conditions - shorter Poon Hill treks catch the clear morning views, then mix in visits to Gurung villages when afternoon rains roll in. More experienced hikers often head to the northern Circuit sections, which stay relatively dry in the rain shadow. The trails near Pokhara offer good alternatives, combining day hikes with visits to the Peace Pagoda and boat trips on Phewa Lake when weather allows.

- Fall / Autumn 2026
Autumn brings the most reliable conditions across Annapurna, with steady weather and excellent visibility. The Circuit trek really shines - our travelers consistently mention those crystal-clear views from Thorong La Pass and also the warm atmosphere in the tea houses along the way. Base Camp routes benefit from stable conditions, letting you focus on the incredible shifts from farmland through bamboo forests and into the alpine zones. Many guests pick the Sanctuary trek, loving how the clear skies show off the complete ring of peaks around Base Camp. The Ghorepani paths work especially well now, mixing perfect sunrise conditions at Poon Hill with pleasant temperatures for exploring mountain villages. From what our travelers tell us, two companies really stand out for Annapurna treks. Adventure Himalayan Travels and Treks has built a solid reputation, and Eco Holidays Nepal keeps getting great feedback from people who've booked with us. The guides make a big difference here - particularly Tenzi Sherpa, Bhakta and also Basu. They know the trails inside out, stay attentive throughout the trek and handle all the practical details that make these trips work smoothly. Our customers often mention how these guides share interesting details about local culture and help everyone feel comfortable, even on challenging sections. Both companies have figured out the logistics well - they choose good tea houses along the routes, plan sensible daily distances and make sure everything runs on schedule. The pricing is straightforward too, with no hidden costs popping up later. It's especially helpful that they include proper gear recommendations and actually check everyone's equipment before heading out.

What cultural experiences can you join in around Annapurna?
You'll find this amazing mix of Hindu and Buddhist traditions throughout the region. You can actually sit in on prayer ceremonies called pujas at places like the Nar Phedi monastery and spend time with Buddhist nuns learning about their lives at Khachoe Ghakyil Ling nunnery near Kathmandu. If you're interested in mountaineering culture the International Mountain Museum in Pokhara is really worth checking out. For a taste of local life head to Ghandruk village where you can experience Gurung culture firsthand maybe visit the conservation museum or try some delicious local apple jam in Marpha. One of the coolest experiences is joining a momo cooking class with Tibetan refugees right in their camp.
How do you access the natural areas around Annapurna?
The whole region sits within the Annapurna Conservation Area Project which is pretty massive protecting everything from lowland pastures right up to glaciers and high mountain passes. Most people explore through organized treks like the Annapurna Circuit Annapurna Base Camp Trek Ghorepani Poon Hill Trek and Mardi Himal Trek. Getting there usually means mixing up some driving and trekking you'll probably take a jeep to where your trek starts or maybe hop on a domestic flight between Pokhara and Jomsom if you're doing a shorter route.
What are some off-the-beaten-path routes worth considering?
The Nar Phu Valley Trek is this incredible hidden gem where you'll discover mystical valleys and ancient villages like Phu and Nar plus the beautiful Tashi Lhakhang Gompa. It's perfect if you're looking to escape the crowds and really dive into the local culture. Richard who went with Adventure Himalayan Travels & Treks called it "one of his most beautiful travel experiences ever" even with some tough weather. It's a challenging 9-day trek but totally worth it if you're up for an adventure.
Which less-visited spots should you check out?
Hemjakot village on the Essential Nepal trek gives you this amazing chance to experience real rural Himalayan life. You can actually stay with a Gurung family in their traditional stone home far from the tourist crowds it's such a genuine way to understand their culture. The Kapan Monastery near Kathmandu is another great spot for a day trip where you can explore the history admire these incredible Buddhist wall paintings and get some amazing valley views.
