Trekking Partners NepalAnnapurna treks
Nepal’s most popular trekking area, from short ridge walks to high passes.
The Annapurna region has something for every trekker: short hill walks above Pokhara like Panchase and Khumai Danda, quiet ridges such as Kori and Mohare, the classic Annapurna Base Camp and Circuit, and remote restricted valleys like Upper Mustang and Nar Phu. Teahouses are plentiful on the main trails, which makes it an easy place to start trekking with a new partner.
13 treks in Annapurna
Annapurna Base Camp
Walk through Gurung villages and bamboo forest into the Annapurna Sanctuary, a natural amphitheatre ringed by Annapurna I, Machapuchare and Hiunchuli.
Annapurna Circuit
The classic loop around the Annapurna massif, from subtropical valleys through Manang to the Thorong La pass and down to Muktinath.
Ghorepani Poon Hill
A short trek through rhododendron forest to the famous Poon Hill sunrise over Dhaulagiri and Annapurna. Great for first-timers.
Mardi Himal
A ridge trail climbing above the forest to close-up views of Machapuchare (Fishtail) and Mardi Himal.
Khopra Danda
A quieter ridge with community lodges and a wide panorama of Dhaulagiri and Annapurna South, with an optional side trip to Khayer Lake.
Mohare Danda
A community eco-trek on a forested ridge with Dhaulagiri and Annapurna views, far quieter than nearby Poon Hill.
Kokhe Danda
A short, uncrowded trek in Parbat district with close views of Dhaulagiri and the Annapurna range.
Nar Phu Valley
Hidden Tibetan-style villages, canyons and old monasteries in a restricted valley off the Annapurna Circuit, crossing the high Kang La.
Upper Mustang
The former Kingdom of Lo: red cliffs, cave dwellings and the walled city of Lo Manthang in a dry rain-shadow landscape that can be trekked even in monsoon.
Annapurna I Base Camp (North)
A remote route from Narchyang in Myagdi to the north base camp of Annapurna I, the side of the mountain first climbed in 1950. Lodges end at Narchyang, so the upper nights are camping.
Khumai Danda & Korchon
A short ridge trek from Ghachok near Pokhara up through forest to Khumai Danda and the Korchon viewpoint, face to face with Machapuchare, returning via Mirsa and the Kharpani hot spring.
Kori, Kapuche & Karpu
Treks from the Gurung village of Sikles to Kapuche glacier lake below the Annapurnas and up to the high grassy ridges of Kori and Karpu Danda. Homestays in Sikles, camping higher up.
Panchase
A short forest and village walk on the Kaski–Parbat–Syangja border to Panchase’s sacred ponds and a sunrise view over Dhaulagiri, Annapurna and Machapuchare. Easy to reach from Pokhara.
