About this trip
This is a proper trek into the Annapurna Range, with a team of Sherpas supporting you through some genuinely tough terrain. Expect towering peaks, deep valleys, and trails that demand a fair bit from your legs and lungs.
You start and finish in Kathmandu, giving you time to take in its temples, squares, and markets before and after the mountains. Overnight stays are in tea houses along the route, simple places where you sleep, eat, and warm up after each day's walking.
It's a trip built around the physical challenge of the trek itself rather than comfort, with the reward being landscapes and a way of life that's stayed largely untouched by the modern world.
