Trekking into the part of Manaslu and Annapurna takes you from the loop of the Manaslu Circuit to the circle of the Annapurna Circuit. Thus we named it Annapurna Manaslu Loop Track. Trekking to the breathtaking Annapurna region and be awestruck by the Himalayas. You will experience these snow-capped mountains, mist-shrouded valleys, isolated settlements, and remote monasteries. So, it will inspire anyone with a daring spirit and crave a superior natural experience.

This Annapurna Manaslu Loop Track allows you to reach altitudes of over 4000 meters, which thoroughly immerse you in the breathtaking mountain wilderness. Similarly, you will learn about the ancestral traditions of locals at the same time.

The trail follows the classic Annapurna Circuit Trek along the valley up to Dharapani. Then, it turns to the right to the opposite valley towards Bhimtang. The highest place on this trek is Bhimtang and Manang. Both sites are naturally beautiful. Bhimtang is a lovely alpine meadow that lies at 3720 meters. In addition, it is the first stop after the Larkaya– La pass, situated at the lap of Mount Himlung. You will have a chance to explore Punkar Lake and the Himlung glacier en route to the Manaslu Circuit.

Annapurna region is the most popular trekking among the other treks in Nepal. It offers much more and a moderate hike with no high passes. But the sense of accomplishment will leave even the most novice and veteran trekkers with some great memories.

Why you'll prefer this trip

Ascend to the clouds and discover the loops of Annapurna and Manaslu Circuit since you trek to Manang and Bhimthang along with the Annapurna Conservation Area.

Learn about life in Nepalese mountain settlements, meet locals, and meet other trekkers while staying in teahouses in small communities along the trail.

Upper mustang trek

I did this trek in Upper Mustang with my sisters, and it was an incredible experience. Everything was very well organized, and we truly enjoyed every part of the journey. I also highly recommend kumar as a guide – he was knowledgeable, helpful, and made the trek even more special. A truly unforgettable adventure!

A wonderful experience!

I did the Phoksundo Lake trek with Kumar and it was a superb experience. It is an adventure, so you have to be willing to step out of your comfort zone, but Kumar always adapts to the unexpected and makes the trip as enjoyable as possible! The landscapes are magnificent, you meet lots of people along the way, and you really push your limits! Kumar is an excellent guide attentive, friendly, and his prices are very fair!

Best company best guide

I recently did an annapurna curcit with my brother and his girlfriend. It was an amazing trek with the help of kumar and his team . It was one of the best experience of our life . The annapurna curcit is the best of the treks that people can choose for. I sincerely recommend this company for other travellers.

Impressive tent trekking Dolpo 2023

The 18-day Lower and Upper Dolpo tour was individually tailored to our needs by Kumar. Kumar had put together a great team of guide, cook and mule guide. This team fulfilled all of our wishes at all times during the entire tent trek. Narsang, our guide, is very attentive and careful along the entire route. Kumar is very reliable. He looked after us very well in the preparation and execution of our trek and during our stay in Kathmandu right up to the farewell at the airport. A highly recommended local company when it comes to individually planning a trekking tour. The trip was a great experience. Chris and Hajo

Honest & Friendly

Our non-profit organisation needed a local tour guide to help with our local guide and logistics. After much research, we engaged with Kumar. During our 4 days trip, Kumar demonstrated excellent local knowledge, punctuality, friendliness. During the trip he never tried to sale us anything. And with a charitable and kind heart, he did not even charge us for this ngo trip. thank you so much.

Reliable and responsible

I was very lucky to have Kumar to arrange our 5 day stay in Nepal. From the pick up at the airport to showing up punctually every morning at the hotel lobby, everything was smooth and hassle free. Kumar is a friendly and kind-hearted gentleman who genuinely wants to help visitors to experience the best of Nepal. Will definitely choose Himalayan Exploration for my next trekking.
