Annapurna Circuit Trek has become renowned as one of the most spectacular trekking routes in the world and which gives us a chance to explore the Himalayas from bottom to top and from many different angles and perspectives. The starting point of this trekking route is Pokhara city which is also known as the city of the Lake.

Travelling clockwise the longer ascent and shorter descents from west to east is too much from many people to manage in one day.

We will have a great chance to see the wonderful vies of the Mountain which includes Dhaulagiri, Machapuchhre, Annapurna south, and many other mountains of this region. We see the beautiful apples and apricots gardens and normally walking experience is enough for this trek without the requirement of specific trekking experience.
