Hike The Annapurna Circuit

What it is

The Annapurna Circuit loops around the Annapurna massif and crosses the Thorong La pass at 5,416 metres.

How to do it

Start from Besisahar or Chame, staying in teahouses. You'll need an ACAP permit and TIMS card, and new rules require a licensed guide in most of Nepal.

Top tip

Build in rest days at Manang to acclimatise before Thorong La.
