Annapurna Circuit Trekking

The Annapurna Circuit trek in Nepal is probably one of the best known hikes, or treks in the world. Taking on average, three weeks to complete, the trek takes in some of the most gorgeous, and high, mountains in the world. The route begins in a sub-tropical area of Nepal - Besisahar, where you could well mistake the area for an Amazonian jungle.

All along the circuit are tea houses. These vary from basic guest house accommodation, to somebody's house, and are invariably extremely good value. It's a good idea to find a place to stay for the night before it gets too dark!

Continuing on from Besisahar the route climbs into higher territory with much more of a Tibetan influence, with the feeling of a more desolate environment, with amazing views of the Annapurna massif.
