    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 2: Drive From Kathmandu To Dharapani (1960 M) 6-7 Hours.

      Today we head out on a scenic road trip to Dharapani. On the route you will get to see the typical Nepal countryside and villages as you pass through forests and alongside raging rivers that have their source in the mountains. We will stay overnight at a guest house in Dharapani. 

  • Day 3 Day 3: Trek From Dharapani To Chame (2630 M) 5-6 Hours.
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 3: Trek From Dharapani To Chame (2630 M) 5-6 Hours.

      This morning we hit the trail and head to Chame along a mule track that ascends through fir forests and follows the beautiful Marsyangdi River. We are slowly heading higher through oak and maple trees with some awesome views of the Annapurna Himal on the trail. Tonight we will stay at a guest house in Chame.

  • Day 4 Day 4: Trek From Chame To Pisang (3,300 M) 5-6 Hours.
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 4: Trek From Chame To Pisang (3,300 M) 5-6 Hours.

      Today we follow the trail through a steep and narrow valley from where we have our first views of Paungda Danda, a enormous curved rock face soaring 1500 meters vertically up from the river bed. From here we can also look skyward to the colossal Annapurna II and Pisang Peaks. We then descend to Manang Valley. Tonight we will stay at a guest house in Pisang. 

  • Day 5 Day 5: Trek From Pisang To Manang (3,570 M) 5-6 Hours.
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 5: Trek From Pisang To Manang (3,570 M) 5-6 Hours.

      Today we will take the upper route to Manang via the Ghyaru-Ngawal-Mungli trail as we enter the upper Manang region that begins at Pisang. Today we initially head to Braga; a Tibetan village with its distinguishing architecture and houses built one upon the other. One of the main features here is its Gompa (Tibetan Buddhist temple), that happens to be the largest in the Manang region. Manang is a popular place for trekkers to take a break and is also an ideal place to acclimatize before heading to higher altitudes. We will stay here overnight.

  • Day 6 Day 6: Acclimatization Day At Manang.
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 6: Acclimatization Day At Manang.

      Health care professionals strongly urge trekkers to acclimatize before heading to higher altitudes. They also strongly recommend that you stay active during this period. Today we will take a trail that leads up to Mt. Khangsar (3756m) as a means of acclimatizing. We will stay overnight at Manang. 

  • Day 7 Day 7: Trek From Manang To Yak Kharka (4,110 M) 3-4 Hours.
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Today we have a 10.4 km uphill climb to Yak Kharka on a trail that leads through juniper forests. On the trail it is very likely that we will see yak grazing in these high alpine pastures. We will also pass the only teahouse at Thorong Khola. Depending on the weather conditions and how energetic we feel we may decide to trek a little further today and stay overnight at Letdar.

  • Day 8 Day 8: Trek From Yak Kharka To Thorong Phedi (4450 M) 5-6 Hours.
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 9: Trek From Thorong Phedi To Muktinath (3,800 M) Via Thorong La Pass (5,416M) 7-8 Hours.

      Today is one of the most physically demanding days on the trek as we trek for up to 8 hours. The higher altitude also makes it tougher going with less oxygen and the chance of very strong winds in these alpine regions. On the trail we may pass sheep, yaks and merchants transporting goods on mules or on their backs. At Thorong La Pass we will have unbelievable views of Annapurna, Gangapurna and the distinctive peak of Khatungkang (6484m). We then descend for approximately 1600 metres and on the trail will have views of Dhaulagiri (Dhavali giri, meaning โ€œWhite Mountainโ€), the highest mountain that is wholly within the borders of Nepal. The trail then becomes easier as we head to Muktinath where we stay overnight.

  • Day 10 Day 10: Drive From Muktinath To Pokhara (8,50M) 6-7 Hours.
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 10: Drive From Muktinath To Pokhara (8,50M) 6-7 Hours.

      This morning we drive to the beautiful lake-side city of Pokhara, Nepalโ€™s second largest city and place where many trekkers begin their trek into the Annapurna region. Pokhara sits close to the Annapurna foothills beside the peaceful Phewa Tal (lake). On arrival you will have time to explore the city or merely sit and relax at a lakeside cafรฉ with a cold drink while watching the sunset over the distant mountains.
